7 Day KwaZulu Natal & Safari Self Drive

From: £1,839

Drive out to the Drakensberg across the majestic Midlands Meander to the rolling hills of the majestic Drakensberg. Then travel to the Battlefields - KwaZulu-Natal is rich in Anglo-Zulu war history. Here you will have the opportunity to take a tour to the sites where two of the most famous, and at times heart-wrenching, battles fought between the Zulu and British Armies, took place. Visit the eerie battlefields of Isandlwana and Rorke’s Drift, and let your imagination paint mental pictures of the battle scenes played out here. Located on the Elephant Coast at Hluhluwe, close to the corals of Sodwana Bay, surrounded by cultural heritage sites and the World Heritage Site of Lake St. Lucia is Umfolozi-Hluhluwe Game Reserve. Here you will have opportunity to view the Big 5 in their natural surroundings, with rangers escorting you on safaris to get up close and personal with these majestic animals.
