The spectacular Zululand along the north coast of KwaZulu-Natal is a sightseeing paradise stretching up to the port city of Richard’s Bay and inland into the rural heart of the province. Zululand is how many people regard KwaZulu-Natal in their minds eye - peaceful green hills, waving grasslands, abundant forests, unhurried lifestyle and a soil imbued with the strength of the Zulu nation who fought for this land. Zululand boasts numerous private and provincial game reserves that offer game viewing and game drives as well as nature and hiking trails. It is a region rich in tradition, and the Zulu culture remains today. Embark on guided cultural tours into the heart of Zulu villages such as Shakaland and Dumazulu, where sangomas (traditional healers) will "read" your future for a small fee. Or attend a rural wedding ceremony, experience stick-fighting, traditional dancers and true Zulu hospitality. A highlight is an ox wagon trip to Zulu villages of beehive huts. Make a point of stopping over in Ulundi, the site of the final battle fought in the Anglo-Zulu war. In sharp contrast are the insightful township tours showcasing modern Zulu life, including taverns, shebeens (township pubs) and traditional medicine shops.
