Luxury KwaZulu-Natal Holidays
One of the smallest provinces in South Africa, KwaZulu-Natal is an untamed wilderness of wide beaches, lush sub-tropical vegetation and the striking Drakensberg or 'Dragon Mountains'. In the 13th century, migrating chiefdoms from the Great Lakes of Central Africa were overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of this mountain range while, in 1837, the ox-wagons of Boer settlers had to negotiate its precipitous passes on the Great Trek. Indeed, this region holds great appeal to military enthusiasts. Fugitives' Drift is renowned for its battlefields and tours can be taken to the Zulu War and Anglo-Boer War battle sites in the region. KwaZulu's game parks are recognised worldwide, protecting marine life as well as mammals, reptiles and birds. Here amongst these complex eco-systems, you will find countless species of animals, birds, plants and butterflies - including endemic and endangered species, which are of critical importance to science and conservation for the future.
