A 1 hour drive outside of durban and you are in the ideal place to relax. you pass by midmar dam, then continue along until you get to piggly wiggle for some retail theraphy and some lunch. there are so many stunning places to stop and just listen to the sound of nature. as you continue further up past balgowan you will come to the famous ugmy duckling shop where there are lots of curois and gifts and soveniours you can buy.

The Tala experience
It only took me 30 years to discover this game reserve only half an hour from my childhood home. Tala game park offers the opportunity to see some stunning wildlife under the African sun. The game tour guides were friendly and had great energy. They also had in-depth knowledge on all the animals in the park. Definitely a worthwhile experience. Wish we could have seen the giraffes but will definitely try to find them next time! #localguides #familytrip #africa #wildlife

Natal Zool
Natal Zoological gardens
The zoo is rather average, you will find Lions, Leopards, Tigers, Buffalos, Liger, Tapir, Goats,Llamas, Chimpanzees, an Orangoetang, Pot -Bellied Pigs,Birds and Parrots. The Chimpanzees are quite entertaining, however, people can push their limits by throwing cigarretes for them to smoke. I found the Orangoetang quite depressing. The zoo should have more sign boards and information boards about their animals. I also found some of the enclosures small. There were a few empty enclosures as well.
