Traverse Zululand Rhino Reserve near Mkuze, in batches of 20 riders with armed rangers as this is a Big 5 reserve!. Head for Mkuze , Lake Sibaya and eventually Kosi bay. These reserves fall into the iSimangaliso World Heritage site Wetlands Park.

We overnight in Tents, themed evening and breakfast meals provided by relevant communities ,ie Afrikaans farmers, witblits and sakkie sakkie, German cuisine near Luneburg, Zulu nyama and isishebo ( and most likely a huge party with much warrior dancing and fun) ending up with themed Mozambique gala dinner at Utshwayelo Camp , having piri piri galinha (chicken) and Laurentina.
