Overview

Immerse yourself in the untamed beauty of Africa on a 7-day vacation to Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, the crown jewel of KwaZulu-Natal’s wildlife reserves. Nestled in the heart of the province, this expansive park is a living testament to the region’s rich history and biodiversity. Once a favored hunting ground for ancient Zulu kings, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi now offers visitors an unparalleled opportunity to witness the majesty of the African “big five” – lion, elephant, leopard, buffalo, and rhino – in their natural habitat.

As you traverse the park’s diverse landscapes, from lush savannah to dense forest, keep your eyes peeled for a chance encounter with an elephant grazing peacefully by the roadside or a herd of zebras galloping across the plains. But for the ultimate thrill, embark on a guided game drive through one of the park’s many state and private reserves. Whether you choose a dawn patrol to witness the magic of a new day in the bush or an evening safari to experience the tranquility of a star-lit African sky, you’re sure to be awestruck by the breathtaking displays of wildlife that await you.

After a day spent in the company of nature, unwind with a traditional boma dinner, where the aroma of roasting game meats mingles with the crackle of the open fire. Or, for a truly unforgettable experience, ascend to a hilltop restaurant that offers panoramic vistas of the park’s sprawling landscapes and the chance to dine alongside majestic wildlife grazing below. From the thrill of the hunt to the tranquility of the bush, a 7-day vacation to Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park promises an adventure that will stay with you long after you’ve returned home.
