The magnificent ‘Vula Zulu’ Show at Thanda

Distant drums give you gooseflesh. Suddenly, the air erupts with animal skins, glinting steel and oiled muscle as twenty warriors explode from the bush. Vula Zulu, an initiative of Thanda Private Game Reserve, is a traditional homestead that showcases Zulu culture and history; its highlight: the immensely powerful traditional warrior dancing, which re-creates the age-old dancing rites carried out pre- and post-battle by Shaka Zulu. There is even a real sangoma (traditional healer) and real Zulu impi (warriors). Experience Vula Zulu and open your mind to a spiritual culture.
