Awesome Cultural Tour - The company, Afro Zulu Tours is well organized and communicated with us on WhatsApp to prepare us for the tour. Zamani was an excellent tour guide. We had books about the Zulu to review and water. We stopped at PheZulu Park for the Zulu Reenactment tour and performance which were well done. Also they have a reptile center there. Next we went to an existing town to learn about how the Zulu live today. All in all, this was a rewarding experience. Well worth it!

Great cultural tour - Great tour. Very informative. Kept my attention. I grew up watching Shaka every February during Black History Month in the States. I decided I wanted to visit and came across this tour. Great experience.
