For varying reasons of geography and politics, the northeastern corner of KwaZulu-Natal has seen clashes between numerous armies, including British, Boer and Zulu.
There are names that resound in the psyche of all three peoples: Isandlwana, Rorke’s Drift, Spioenkop and Blood River to name just a few.
The guiding is amongst the best you will experience anywhere in the world, and as you listen to expertly recounted tales of how a hundred British soldiers held off some 4,000 Zulus at Rorke’s Drift, or how nearly 1,800 were killed a few hours earlier at the battle of Isandlwana.
Learn how Ghandi, Paul Kruger and Winston Churchill were all involved in a desperate struggle for the desolate summit of Spioenkop, during the Boar War; you will be engaged, informed and greatly moved.
There are numerous lodges in this area and all offer tours of these battlefields.

There is a saying: 'If you see Table Mountain then go up Table Mountain', as the weather can suddenly turn and it can be covered in cloud very quickly.
