Ontdek Rorkes Drift tijdens onze dagtour vanuit Durban
Beschrijving
Stel je voor dat je over het echte slagveld wandelt dat beroemd is geworden door de films Zulu en Zulu Dawn! Stel je voor dat je staat waar luitenant Chard stond, of luitenant Bromhead of luitenant Curling; stel je voor dat je op de vuurlinie bij Isandlwana staat terwijl duizenden Zulu-krijgers naar je toe rennen! Tijdens deze geweldige dagtour kun je het terrein bewandelen waarop de Britten en Zulu vochten. Je wordt vergezeld door een gekwalificeerde en gepassioneerde gids die je zal helpen een beter begrip te krijgen van de gebeurtenissen die plaatsvonden in Rorkes Drift en Isandlwana in 1879. Op weg naar de slagvelden zal je gids onderweg interessante plekken aanwijzen en ook het prachtige landschap van KwaZulu Natal ervaren.

We had an excellent tour with our guide Sheldon. He was very knowledgeable and very articulate. The sites were amazing and the trip comfortable. The day tour was definitely a highlight of our trip ! I highly recommend this tour.
A brilliant insight into a part of British history. Our tour guide had knowledge and background details that were fascinating about both of these famous and infamous battles. Amazing stories of heroism and giving an insight into Colonial mentality and also the Zulu world. I would encourage anyone interested in history to take this tour. It might be a long drive there and back but not to go then you would live with regret.
Very long day. Brilliant driver. Unmade roads very muddy and slippery. Got stuck a few times. Excellent knowledgeable guide Mariete.
An amazing experience with a fabulous guide. Sheldon had a wealth of knowledge and was always happy to answer any questions we had to ask.we were lucky enough to have him all to ourselves on this particular trip. You could tell that he truly loved his job through the enthusiasm that he showed us. A long day , but we always knew that, so prepared ourselves for it
A long day but hugely worthwhile! Sheldon was an informed and informative guide and blended humour with detail and background to the sites and their history. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Thank you so much for your review. And good luck with the renovations :)
Absolutely brilliant! Shelldon is an outstanding teller of history who brought to life the buildup and events of those two days in January 1879 at Isandlwana and Rorkes Drift. Best of all, he was able to debunk some of the myths crested in those two great movies, whilst simultaneously maintaining an objective and dispassionate view of the causes, events and aftereffects. It's a long, 12 hour day but very much worth the effort and almost certainly a once in a lifetime experience.
Thank you so much for the kind words! Safe travels :)
Excellent day. Extremely informative and knowledgeable guide. Even though long drive to destination, time passed quickly. Highly recommended if you are interested in African history.
I emailed Shelldon with a request for a 4 day battlefield tour for the two of us. His communication at every step was great and he organized a fabulous private guide who was very knowledgeable and great company. Thanks Shelldon we had the best time.
Shelldon helped me organise a group day tour for 30 people from Durban to isandlwana and Rorkes drift. He was excellent, very informative and he brought the battles to life. It was a very long day but with Shelldon as our guide, it was worth it. I would not hesitate to recommend Shelldon and his tours. Thank you Shelldon
Apologies for the very late response to your review! The day was easy thanks to such a great group of people :)
Sheldon had so much knowledge he was a pleasure to listen to. It was a very long day but well worth it. We had coffee and a toilet stop in the way there and back, coffee was good and the facilities were clean. We had a chicken wrap at Rorkes Drift which was lovely. Thoroughly enjoyed the trip and very glad we decided to go, money well spent!
Thanks so much for your kind words :)
