Splendid tour! Sortiris is a very experienced guide with a lot of knowledge! We spend a perfect full day tour even though the weather was not quite nice. Zhulu traditions are a must such as Tala Game Reserve

Wir waren mit Benson unterwegs. Benson hat uns viel erzĂ€hlt und war sehr nett und offen. Zuerst waren wir im Löwen Park, wo man die Tiere aus nĂ€chster NĂ€he beobachten konnten. Danach waren wir bei den Elefanten, die wir anfassen durften und ihren RĂŒssel in unser Auto steckten. Als NĂ€chstes sind wir in einen Vogelpark gefahren, wo es eine interessante Vogelshow gab. Dann waren wir in einem großen Park, wo wir Giraffen, Zebras, kleine Affen und Wildschweine, Buffalos, Vögel und Nashörner sehen konnten. Zuletzt waren wir im PheZulu Tal. Dort haben wir eine FĂŒhrung von einem Einheimischen bekommen und konnten deren Kultur kennenlernen. Von da aus hatte man einen wunderschönen Blick ĂŒber die 1000 hills Valley. In diesem Tal war noch ein Reptilienpark, wo wir nochmal eine FĂŒhrung bekommen haben. Dort konnte man Schlangen und kleine Krokodile anfassen und auf die Hand nehmen. Insgesamt war es ein unglaublicher Tag. Zwischen den Parks konnte man die wunderschönen Landschaften bestaunen.
