KwaZulu-Natal has many of South Africa’s greatest attractions crammed into one province: Durban, green rolling countryside, the Drakensberg Mountains and the Battlefields, an area containing legendary military sites such as Spioenkop, Blood River, Isandlwana and Rorke’s Drift.

This province is worth a two-week trip in its own right, and Durban is a well-served flight hub so incorporating one or two of the province’s attractions into a country-wide itinerary is also possible and popular.
A typical circuit would include the stark and stunning Drakensberg Mountains, the Battlefields where some of the best guides in the country will wring emotions out of you as they describe the battles at Isandlwana and Rorke’s Drift, public and private game reserves full of big game and beautiful scenery, and the coastline with its remote beach lodges in the north, the shores of the Lake St Lucia UNESCO World Heritage site and the many resort towns around Durban.
Whilst tours do pass through the province, to get a full flavour we really recommend self-driving, or, if just visiting one or two destinations, private transfers.
