Ask for James. Amazing guide! Tents are a little noisy, but worth the experience. Game Lodge is neat because it is inside the reserve, but the tents and safari lodge are cleaner, service is better, and food is a little better (especially breakfast). Loved every minute of this trip. James made the trip even better. Would go back in a... More

We stayed at the Zulu Nyala Safari Resort and we had a mixed bag in terms of the quality of the experience. While the tents are quite nice, the rest of the resort is a bit like a boarding school - including the food. The first night the food was just short of 'horrible' while the second night it improved... More

We so enjoyed our stay at the Zulu Nyala Game Lodge in 2009, that we bid on it again; but this time we purchased two trips so we could bring our friends, too. This experience surpassed the previous one. Sipho, our safari guide for the week, was terrific! He attended to all our needs and answered all our questions, we... More

Where do I begin? The driver who picked us up from the Richard's Bay airport was very nice and friendly, as was everyone here. But when we arrived the paperwork he had was incorrect and he took us to the wrong lodge. it was late at night and we were tired from a two-hour drive so we were in no... More

Our stay in the tents were very disappointing to say the least. Where do I start......the trains practically runs through this establishment.......right through the night! It is seriously noisy! They are currently building and there are serious construction going on. The gravel road (to Hluhluwe town) runs past this "Lodge" - most farmers, game rangers use it as a race... More

The Zulu Nyala Heritage was a bit of a disappointment for us, as we "won" it at a silent auction, and even though we paid far less than others (everyone we met had bought this trip at a fundraising silent auction), we still feel we overpaid for what our accommodation turned out to be. The best part of every day... More

You will truly experience the magic of Africa at Zulu Nyala. They have zebras walking freely! The Zulu dancers and music are mesmerizing. The game drives are incredible and the drivers are very knowledgeable and will make sure you see every animal. There was an 8 foot python on the road and our driver and another driver got out and...

We spent the weekend in the Zulu Nyala Heritage Safari Lodge Tented camp. Tents are spacious and clean with large full bathrooms. The weekend was very windy so the tent noise took some getting used to. We definitely missed having air conditioning in the tents over a very hot weekend Food in the restaurant was plentiful with a local flavour... More

Like most we went on this trip from a purchase at an auction. The accommodations were nice and the meals were good but what makes the trip is the game drives. You get fantastic guides who work very hard to make sure you have a wonderful time. James is the best but they were all great. The extra things to... More

We spent New Year 2013 (2 nights) at Zulu Nyala Heritage Safari Lodge. We had booked the "luxury" tents but on arrrival were told we had been allocated rooms. Initially we were disappointed as some other members of our party were already in the tents. We went to look at the rooms and were pleased to discover they were air... More
