Hi, my name is Shelldon of Durban Safaris and Tours and I’m a tour operator and tour guide based in the Valley of a 1000 Hills, just 20 minutes from Durban. I am also a member of the 1000 Hills CTO and am a passionate advocate for tourism in the Valley of a 1000 Hills area.
Over the years I have been privileged to take visitors from around South Africa and of course international visitors on tours throughout KwaZulu-Natal to such places as the Hluhluwe Imfolozi Game Reserve, the battlefields of the Anglo Zulu war and many cultural sites as well.
I offer a range of pre-planned day tour itineraries to visitors in the Valley of a 1000 Hills and I can accommodated small family groups and we as larger coach groups. I can collect you and your companions from your accommodation in the Valley of a 1000 Hills area as well as drop off.
As per South Africa law, all our guides are registered with the Department of Tourism, our vehicles all have their required permits and the company has public liability insurance, which means you get piece of mind!
