Hello and welcome to Durban! My name is Paul and I'm a true Durbanite! Sun, great warm sea and Golden beaches, what more can you ask for? I love the warm climate we have and the proximity to so many great tour venues. I've been living in Durban since I was 13. I've grown up with a love for the outdoors. Camping, fishing, cooking are a few of the things that excite me. I'm a great Sports enthusiast with Rugby at the top of my list. I'm a nature specialist and my passion goes way back to my childhood. I attended a boarding school in the mountains in amongst the farms and quickly learnt about wildlife. All things natural are special to me from grasses and insects to the magnificent Elephants and Mountains. Although I can follow a routine I like to be flexible, especially with private groups. I'm passionate about the Durban Safaris I run but also the Durban Day tours like Durban city Tours and Valley Of 1000 Hills. Guiding to me is a passion, not just a cool way to make a living! Come take a ride with Me and we will discover a few things, new and magical, together. FGASA level 1 NQF level 4, Nature and Cultural registered with edtea registered with Ezemvelo My vehicle holds up to 9 passengers but it's more comfortable with 6. Larger vehicle can be arranged Open Safari vehicle comes with qualified drivers so cannot drive them. I'm only fluent in English, although I can have a conversation in Afrikaans.

We visit Tala private game reserve and enjoy Game drives searching for animals. It does not have the "Big 5" but does have Hippo, Giraffe, Rhinos, zebra and many more. We will spend about 3 hours here seeing what we can find. Just before lunch we drive into Valley of a thousand hills where we can get some lunch with breathtaking views. We arrive at Phezulu Safari Park and cultural center perched on to of a hill overlooking the Valley Of 1000 Hills. First visit the reptile park and maybe hold a baby crocodile or snake then on to the Cultural show. You will experience Zulu customs when a young man proposes to a girl and we follow their traditional journey and dancing to their marriage.
I will pick you up from your selected venue and we will proceed to Tala, about a 40 minute drive. Upon arrival we will begin our 2 hour drive with so many animals to see. Giraffe, zebra, Hippos and many more. After our game drive we will head to valley of 1000 hills to enjoy the scenery and find a spot for lunch (own account). Phezulu Cultural village has time slots and we will arrange to fit in to 1 of those. Normally mid afternoon. After some culture we have the option of a reptile park on the same premises. Maybe the Boa constrictor will be out to be held! Some snakes are safe to pick up. Returning to Durban we may stop at a market for some souvenirs. As a half day tour we can begin at 7 or 8am or after lunch at13h30
