DURBAN WEST EXPERIENCE
Explore the roots of Zulu culture
Many local Zulu people have maintained a traditional lifestyle in the Umgeni and Shongweni Valleys, giving the area a powerful sense of history and identity. Their colourful ceremonies and expressive, artistic culture give this area its vibrant atmosphere and creative energy.
Explore the roots of Zulu culture by taking an organised tour deep into tribal lands. You can witness ancient Zulu ceremonies, as traditional diviners ‘throw the bones’ and communicate with their spiritual ancestors at pheZulu Safari Park. PheZulu also offers traditional Zulu dancing and cultural shows, as well as game drives, local curios, wonderful views across the valley and a crocodile and snake park. For those with adventurous taste buds and a carnivorous hunger, try out a crocodile steak at pheZulu’s Croctilians Restaurant.
