TOUR DESCRIPTIONS:

FACE TO FACE ZULU VILLAGE

This tour is only available Monday to Friday only.

Join a community in the Valley of a 1000 Hills where guests are encouraged to ask many questions, as possible as the level of participation by you could make this one of your best experiences ever as the life of a 21st century Zulu Village unfolds before you.

As there are over 900 "umuzi" (households) there is much to do. A visit to the Traditional healer "Sangoma" and an understanding of the marriage process are some of the fundamentals to learn but daily life involves tending livestock, gathering wood and water while harvesting crops. The aim is to give guests the opportunity to experience Zulu Culture in a way that very few will and every day is different. A traditional lunch is served and then it is time to enjoy some traditional Zulu dancing. A display of beadwork is available for purchase. Please note this is a reality based experience and not a commercially constructed village. The walking will require a basic level of fitness but can be done at any pace as this is Africa, no time constraints as everything works on African time.
