SCENIC SURROUNDINGS

One of only a handful of superb small lodges on the private Kwandwe Game Reserve in South Africa’s Eastern Cape, the Kwandwe Great Fish River Lodge has arguably the best location.

Nestled on the lush green banks of its namesake, the Great Fish River, the lodge’s huge windows and wraparound viewing decks make the most the scenic surroundings. Whilst here you’ll embark on twice daily game drives, nature walks and big game walking safaris with skilled guides and trackers who will lead you through the game-rich Kwandwe reserve. The opportunity to track white and black rhino, elephant and buffalo on foot is a particular highlight here.

LUXURIOUS SUITES

Back at the lodge, where better to unwind than by your private plunge pool. The nine luxurious suites are decked out in a classic-contemporary African-inspired decor, with earthy tones and foldaway glass doors that open onto thatched verandas. The communal areas of the lodge are built for relaxation, with cosy fireplaces and expansive decks perfect for watching wildlife come down to the river for a drink. It’s also here that you’ll dine on delicious African-inspired meals, both in the candlelit dining room and al fresco in the boma beneath a starlit sky.

“EVERY TRIP EXCELLENT – AND MORE TO COME”
I’ve been on several small group holidays with The Ultimate Travel Company and every one has been outstanding. My most recent trip in February was no exception – expertly organised, responsive to questions, and full of memorable experiences. The itineraries are well thought out, the hotels top-notch, and the group sizes just right. Their tour leaders are knowledgeable, supportive and great company. I haven’t looked elsewhere since discovering Ultimate – and I’m already planning my next.

“TAILORED TO PERFECTION”
Our holiday in Thailand was superb – custom-built exactly to our preferences. The Ultimate Travel Company were super attentive, listening carefully to what we wanted and designing an itinerary and hotel selection that really delivered. Even while we were away, they responded quickly to a query. A brilliant experience from start to finish.

“FLAWLESS, AGAIN”
This is the third time I’ve used TUTC. The service, as before, was flawless. Aside from putting in place all the major details of a complex trip to Japan, Dan at TUTC nailed every detail: train tickets were for seats with large luggage space (very important in Japan, as we discovered); a mobile internet wifi was included; together with a pre-charged use-pretty-much-anywhere travel card (again, important – Japan has multiple transport companies). For any kind of complex trip I won’t go anywhere else.
