BIG 5 SAFARI AND WETLAND TOURS

TOUR 1:

Full Day Tour to Hluhluwe / Umfolozi Game Park-This 12 hour return journey into the world famous Game parks of Zululand gives you the opportunity to see wild life at its best, including some or all of the Big 5. We depart early-especially in summer -and spend at least six hours searching for the animals in this 100 000 hectare park which was declared a Game Reserve in the 1890's. A light lunch will enable us to have more time travelling in the Park. We are likely to see rhino, elephant, buffalo, giraffe, zebra and a variety of antelope.

TOUR 2:

This full day Wetlands Wonder Tour takes you into the St.Lucia Estuary Wetland Park up the north coast of KwaZulu-Natal. On arrival we take a leisurely two hour Estuary Boat ride viewing hippos and crocodiles, as well as a wide variety of birds such as the African Fish Eagle and the Goliath Heron Marvel at the unique Mangrove forests supporting life such as crabs, mudskipper fish and climbing whelks. There might also be an opportunity to visit the Cape Vidal Park, before returning home to Durban in the late afternoon.

TOUR 3:

This Bush and Wetland tour lasting two days will take us into Zululand and we arrive at the St.Lucia Estuary-one of S.A.'s seven World Heritage sites! After a two hour boat cruise along the Estuary where we will see hippo, crocodile and many wetland birds, we travel further north and spend the night near the Hluhluwe Game Park. Day 2 sees us entering and spending most of the day in the Game Park and looking for some of the plentiful wild life such as buffalo, rhino, giraffe, zebra and a wide variety of antelope such as impala and nyala. A real chance also exists to see some of the other Big 5 in wildlife. We return to Durban in the late afternoon.


TOUR 4:

The Big 5 Game and Extravaganza Tour would be best served by taking at least two or three days to enjoy this tour to its fullest! This luxurious and all encompassing tour has some options: Option [A] takes us to the heart of Zululand where we visit a sumptuous Private Game Reserve. Game drives in open 4 x 4 safari vehicles are conducted by fully qualified game rangers to treat you to a wild life safari experience. Wild life viewings are almost guaranteed and each day includes two game drives lasting about three hours during which you are likely to have close up sightings of Lion, Rhino and possibly Cheetah. Your experience includes three wonderful meals a day in extremely comfortable surroundings. Option [B] takes us to the midlands and southern parts of KwaZulu-Natal where we have an equally exciting experience as option [A], but in a different region of the Province.



TOUR 5:

The quick safari tour: for those of you with only a few hours to see some animals, this tour is just for you! Inlands from Durban is a Game Park with a variety of wild animals such as rhino, giraffe, wildebeest (gnu), hippos, a large variety of birds and water duck as well as zebra and a variety of antelope such as eland and impala. One hour from Durban, this destination is enough to whet your appetite for the longer safari tour!
