Durban, South Africa, Can Satisfy Your Wild Luxury Cravings Too
Thanda Safari Private Game Reserve is nestled in northern Zululand, spanning a vast 14,000-hectare private wilderness. "Thanda" means "love" in Zulu, reflecting the reserve's deep connection with Zulu culture, indigenous flora, and wildlife.š„š„ We chose to embrace nature in their authentic safari-style tented campāand were utterly amazed from the moment we arrived.š„š„ šThe lodge's communal areas include a library, business center, wine cellar, and spa, offering relaxation amidst the untamed bush. Many couples honeymoon here, though we were told we were the first Chinese guests to visit! šThanda Safari organizes twice-daily game drives for all guests. The nearby Hluhluwe Game Reserve, South Africa's oldest wildlife sanctuary (over 100 years old), was once the hunting grounds of Zulu kings. Today, itās home to thriving wildlife populations and is one of the worldās best places to spot both black and white rhinos. At sunset, our butler arranged a magical experience: sipping sundowner drinks and savoring bush-inspired snacks while watching the golden savanna fade into dusk.š„š„ šThe lodgeās professional chefs craft exquisite mealsāthink authentic braai (barbecue) and fresh, flavorful salads. A romantic starlit dinner was unforgettable, followed by a traditional Zulu dance performance under the African sky.šāØ #WildLuxury #SafariDreams #ZululandMagic #SouthAfricaSafari#ThandaSafari #RhinoConservation #BushGlam #HoneymoonGoals
