Zululand & Elephant Coast Safari Tour
This safari tour journeys through South Africa's KwaZulu Natal region, through the wilder parts of the province. Each destination is located a short distance from each other, which means that driving time is reduced. On the tour guests will visit various wilderness regions, coastal stretches and cultural hotspots, each offering unique experiences and promising an expedition not to be forgotten. The tour starts off in the Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Game Reserve, a Big 5 reserve, where guests embark on wilderness walk, seeking wildlife species. Here, guests spend the nights camped out under the stars, surrounded by the African wilderness. Next, guests visit Mkhuze Game Reserve, another Big 5 reserve, where game drives, bush picnics and luxury tented safari accommodation are on offer. The tour moves on to Tembe Elephant Park, a community-owned reserve that is home to some of the last populations of Great Tusker elephants. Kosi Bay Reserve is next, a stunning lake and estuary system teeming with hippos and birdlife. Enjoy a sunset cruise and a range of water-based activities here. Next, visit the small seaside town of St Lucia, from where the miles of coastline and estuary system can be explored. The last stop on this unforgettable tour is at an authentic Zulu village.
