African adventures, this is the ultimate South African encounter and is
totally diverse. In the adventure capital of KwaZulu Natal, there
is colorful tribal heritage, scenic mountains, beaches and countless
wildlife encounters.From Johannesburg we
journey to
Krueger National Park, one of the greatest game sanctuaries on
earth. On game drives you can encounter the Big Five (lion, rhino,
elephant, leopard & buffalo) and 147 other mammal species. I've
visited Krueger a dozen times and there is always something new to
witness in nature here.
We journey to the Kingdom of Swaziland which is
a country within a country. Here we meet the Bantu people in the “Valley
of Heaven.” At Beehive Village, we will overnight in real mud huts!
(With bathrooms attached.) On to fabulous Zululand
for total cultural emersion. See tribal dances and meet the witch
doctors. There are more game drives here at Hluhluwe Reserve,
famous for its giraffe, zebra, cheetah and the world renowned Rhino
Conservancy. After safaris, we end in Durban for sun and surf.
See the Golden Mile beachfront, the Herbal Market and opt for a visit to
Shakaland, Marine World or St. Lucia for its hippos and crocs.
The worlds savviest travelers choose South Africa for
