KwaZulu-Natal & Lesotho safaris with Drakensberghiker

Our home province KwaZulu Natal, and neighboring Lesotho, have lots of culture and history and we love showing people where we live. We live on the East Coast of South Africa, and love to visit all the amazing places near our home.

KwaZulu Natal
The beaches in KwaZulu Natal are beautiful.

Before or after your hike, why not add a tour KZN or Lesotho?

“No one can show off a place better than a local”

Kosi Bay Turtle

On our tours to discover KwaZulu-Natal we include Kosi Bay, right on the border with Mozambique.  Here we can see nature in action, as huge Loggerhead and Leatherback turtles crawl up the beach to lay their eggs in their breeding season.

Also on offer is a great 6-day 4×4 drive to the really Wild Coast of KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape Drakensberg. This tour takes us from the warm sandy beaches watching millions of sardines migrate up the coast to the 5 highest road passes and snow-covered mountains in 1 trip.

We can also include visits to the famous battlefields on our KZN tours

Not too long ago, everyone living here fought with each other. There are some very interesting places to visit and listen to great story tellers talking about our incredible KwaZulu-Natal history. As we discover South Africa we can visit such places as Spionkop, Rorke’s drift and Isandlwana where the Zulu’s gave the British a hiding.

KwaZulu Natal safari.
KwaZulu Natal has some incredible game reserves with lots of African wildlife.

You can’t discover South Africa properly without a visit to our world famous game reserves.

We love to visit Hluhluwe and Umfolozi game reserves in Northern KwaZulu-Natal. Nearby is the stunning St Lucia wetland park so we can check out both on one easy tour of South Africa. The real African bush and the warm Indian ocean all in 5 days. What more can you ask for?

Of course, there are the amazing Drakensberg mountains where our mountainous neighbor, Lesotho is begging to be explored.

Tour of Lesotho.
Traveling in Lesotho with our 4×4’s as we explore this mountainous country.

 

Lesotho, the Mountain Kingdom

Lesotho isn’t just another country, it is another world! It boasts the country with the highest lowest point and has the highest diamond mine in the world. It is also completely surrounded by South Africa. Not only do we hike all over the Drakensberg mountains in Lesotho but we also do a regular safari in Lesotho! Come and  join me in your 4×4 vehicle or one of mine. We mostly stay in cozy simple mountain lodges as the weather can be extreme high up in the Drakensberg. If you need to recharge and relax then a safari in the mountain kingdom is perfect for you.

If you would like to do one of these 4×4 Tours of Lesotho or KwaZulu-Natal on a different date, let us know by using our contact form.
