About Zululand

Zululand holds Hluhluwe-iMfolozi — the oldest proclaimed game reserve in Africa and the place the white rhino was brought back from the brink. It is malaria-free and three and a half hours from Durban. It is also the historical centre of the Zulu kingdom, with royal sites, cultural villages and burial grounds that are still actively significant, not museum pieces.

Things to do here

  • Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Big Five game drives
  • Shakaland and DumaZulu cultural villages
