Module 12: About Zulus, Swazis and the Big 5

From Durban to Johannesburg - ± 1510 km 

Zululand – Pongola Game Reserve – Eswatini – Kruger National Park – Johannesburg

From Durban you travel in a northerly direction to Zululand. Here you can learn a lot about the culture, tradition and lifestyle of the Zulu people. On your way north, the Hluhluwe Game Reserve is always well worth a visit. At the Pongola Reserve, you have the opportunity to participate in game drives in an open vehicle. A boat cruise on the huge Pongola Lake is always a true experience. Elephants are often seen on the shore drinking and bathing. The small Kingdom of Eswatini is the next destination. Opportunity to visit the street markets and the 'King Sobuza Memorial'. After re-entry to South Africa, the famous Kruger National Park with the adjoining private reserves will be reached. Safari! In your rental vehicle, in an open four-wheel vehicle accompanied by an experienced ranger or even on foot (depending on the chosen accommodation category), a Safari in the Kruger National Park almost always guarantees exceptional wildlife viewing. At the end of this module, the route continues to the greater Johannesburg area. Here in a comfortable country hotel you can relive you wilderness experiences once again.
