Great staff and tour experience - number one place to experience the battles of Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift between the Zulu and British. You will come away with a true South African historic experience and a taste of wildlife. We suggest the 10km hike from Isandlwana to Fugitive's Drift Lodge - be prepared for a short swim across the historic Buffalo River - confidence in the water is a must - truly worthwhile.
