- In the wildlife-laden lands of South Africa’s Kwa Zulu Natal region, Thanda Safari has been designed to be part of the living landscape.
- Beautifully at one with nature, it honours its cultural and natural heritage with a passionate and dedicated commitment to conservation which is evident at every turn.
- From the Zulu-inspired lodges to the magnificent Villa iZulu, a luxurious Afro-chic homestead, to the beautiful safari tents which channel the explorers of yesteryear, no detail has been spared.
- Yet it’s Thanda Safari’s immersion in the landscape which sets it apart.
- Wake in the morning to the sounds of the bush and set off to experience the Big 5 up close.
- Learn about the conservation efforts in place to protect the delicate ecosystem and get to know the local Zulu people as you embark on a luxurious journey of discovery, adventure and awakening whether you’re on a honeymoon safari or a family adventure in South Africa.
Go in search of the Big 5 – elephants, lions, rhinos, leopards and buffalo – on this sprawling game reserve in the Kwa-Zulu Natal region of South Africa. Wild and untamed, wildlife here roams freely and offers some of the best game viewing on the continent. Experienced local Zulu guides, conservation experts and wildlife photographers will lead the way, but the animals are the star of the show. Back at the lodge, hunker down in gorgeous lodges and back-to-nature-in-luxury safari tents for cosy nights under a starlit sky, evenings spent around the fire pit regaling the day’s adventures, and time set aside for some nurturing in the two spas.
