Durban - An easy two-hour drive from Durban, in a malaria free area, Thula Thula is the ultimate destination to experience a true taste of Africa. This private game reserve is home to the five star Elephant Safari Lodge and a luxurious Tented Camp, which borders the Enseleni River.
Once the hunting grounds of King Shaka, Thula Thula is steeped in history. Framed by a majestic landscape, the reserve is abundant with wildlife, including a breeding herd of elephant, of the late Lawrence Anthony’s bestselling book The Elephant Whisperer fame. The tastefully appointed suites of the Elephant Safari Lodge are decorated in an Afro-Colonial style, while the Tented Camp is reminiscent of a safari camp of a past era.
