We leave Durban at 6:00am and set off on this 3 hour drive to Hluhluwe Imfolozi Game Reserve. We drive past the beautiful plantations enroute to Hluhluwe. You also get to see some villages along the route as well as some African sculpture. You enjoy a cup of coffee and some light snacks along the way.

A game safari in Hluhluwe‑iMfolozi Game Reserve offers an immersive journey into Africa’s oldest proclaimed nature reserve. Spanning an impressive 96,000 ha of rolling hills, river valleys, and woodland just north of Durban, this park is renowned for its Big Five sightings and legendary rhino conservation efforts. Guided safaris in open 4×4 vehicles—available as half-day, full-day, or private exclusive options—lead you across varied habitats where you’re likely to encounter lions, elephants, buffaloes, leopards, and both black and white rhinos, as well as giraffes, zebras, wild dogs, hyenas, and a rich birdlife of over 340 species.
