Trip through KwaZulu-Natal’s Midlands

Spend the day with a local guide who can give you a rounded view of this naturally striking, historically rich region. As you explore, you can find out more about KwaZulu-Natal’s past, including its role as the heart of the British colony of Natal. The region is still dotted with country estates and stud farms established by 19th-century colonialists, as well as battlefields from the war between British colonial troops and both the local Zulus and Boers.

Moving to the present day, you’ll also get the chance to visit craft shops selling beautifully worked goods, from candles to wood carvings and shoes. You can also drop into breweries and cheese makers as you wend your way through the scenery, enjoying lunch at a restaurant or pub.
