Overview of your Durban tour:

The names of Isandlwana and Rorkes Drift still resound clearly to this day. It's at these sites that turning points in history were created, not only for the Zulu nation, but for the English and French nations as well. On the 22nd of January 1879 the modern, well armed British forces encamped on the slopes of a remote hill called Isandlwana were detroyed in 90min by an idigenous people, the Zulu's armed with nothing but spears. On that very same day, hours later, 150 British soldiers at a outpost in rural Zululand despreatly fought for their lives at a crossing point known as Rorkes Drift. Explore their stories that were brought to life inthe films "Zulu" and "Zulu Dawn" on this full day battlefiels tour.
