Fugitives' Drift Lodge

The Battlefields of KwaZulu-Natal offer an incredible insight into the history of South Africa, and the best way to really appreciate this bloody and fiercely-fought history is to go on one of the mesmerising and theatrical tours of the key areas.

Fugitives' Drift Lodge in the heart of the KwaZulu-Natal Battlefields is one of the outstanding destinations in South Africa, and the tours will move you to tears and stay in your memory forever. The highly recommended Battlefield tours are an additional R575 to R750 per person, depending on the time of year, and include visits to both Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift.

The morning tour to Isandlwana takes in the battlefield, where a contingent of 2,500 British soldiers were over-run and defeated within a few short hours by twenty thousand Zulu warriors.

The afternoon tour to Rorke's Drift firstly visits the small museum, and then gives a theatrical account of the bravery of the 136 British soldiers who defended the mission station against over 4,000 Zulus and saved injured and dying comrades from the burning hospital.

The lodge is set in a nature reserve, and the 9 spacious en-suite luxury rooms all have their own private veranda.

A separate cottage has 2 luxury en-suite twin rooms and a sitting room, which is ideal for families or friends travelling together.

A feature of the lodge is the beautifully shady and well-established garden, home to innumerable birds and a wonderful large swimming pool situated on a secluded spur of the lip of the Buffalo River gorge. Guests can also enjoy horse riding on the property.
