Day Two

Today we cover the Zulu nation and their clashes with the British. We visit Isandlwana where 1329 well equipped British soldiers were slaughtered during a well-orchestrated Zulu attack. From there we drive to Fugitive Drift where we tell of the heroic saving of the Queen's Colour. We then, later that afternoon, spend time at Rorke's Drift where a handful of brave British soldiers defended the post against the onslaught of 4,000 attacking Zulu warriors. Overnight as last night.

Day Three

This morning we move 20 years on to the Boer War battlefields. We visit the town besieged for 118 days, Ladysmith, and drive to the summit of Spioenkop Mountain. This blood soaked acre is the battlefield site where the British made a second attempt to break through the Boer lines to reach Ladysmith. After lunch we'll depart for home.
