Giraffe near Rorkes Drift

Our last port of call was Fugitives Drift Lodge from where we explored the Zulu war battlefields of Isandlwana and Rorkes Drift. The lectures given on site by the talented staff of Fugitives Drift were so well presented that it was impossible not to feel moved by the tragic story of this all but forgotten war.

Understandably this part of the trip had been planned with the men in mind but all of the women on the trip were gripped by the stories, and no one was left unmoved.
