The tour departs from Durban and takes you to the scenic Valley of 1000 Hills, where you’ll visit the renowned PheZulu Cultural and Safari Park. Here, guests are welcomed into traditional Zulu beehive-shaped thatched huts and given an engaging introduction to the customs, rituals, and beliefs of the Zulu people. The cultural experience offers a unique opportunity to gain insight into the heritage and way of life of one of South Africa’s most prominent ethnic groups. A highlight of the visit is the 50-minute Zulu dancing show, where skilled performers dressed in traditional attire entertain the audience with energetic, rhythmic, and often humorous dances that reflect their cultural pride and storytelling traditions.

Following the cultural experience, the tour continues with a visit to the PheZulu Crocodile and Snake Park. A knowledgeable local guide leads guests through the park, sharing fascinating facts about the resident reptiles, including various species of crocodiles and snakes. Visitors may also have a hands-on encounter with Cleo, the park’s 42-kilogram Burmese python—an exciting opportunity for the more adventurous. This immersive experience at PheZulu offers a mix of cultural education and wildlife interaction, making it an engaging and memorable outing for all ages.
