Zululand

Fantastic game reserves and a warm Indian Ocean is what Zululand is most loved for. Situated in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, this province is alive with Zulu culture and lush vegetation.

Once the kingdom of the legendary King Shaka Zulu, the Zululand of today is a sanctuary for the Big Five, a vast range of wildlife, and an incredible selection of bird and plant species.

Explore the timeless African bush, by visiting some of the many game reserves and parks, such as the iSimangaliso Wetland Park (formerly known as The Greater St Lucia Wetlands National Park), Enseleni Game Reserve, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi, Mkuzi, Phinda and Ithala. Empangeni, Eshowe, Mtunzini , St Lucia or Richards Bay are great bases from which to explore the area.

Because Zululand is the place where the Zulu nation went to war with the British, it contains landmarks from the Anglo Boer War. You can also experience contemporary Zulu culture on one of the Township Tours.
