A beautiful area to visit on the Western Shores of iSimangaliso Wetland Park is Charters Creek. Lovely spot for a picnic and to watch the hippos next to the jetty.

Did you know that after every single whale watching tour, our work continues?

Directly after returning to shore, we log every sighting and upload our photos to assist with vital research and the ongoing conservation of our whales. By joining us on the water, you’re helping us track and protect these magnificent giants for generations to come.

Science and adventure, hand in hand.

Did you know that Humpback Whales are among a small number of animals, including humans, known to create and evolve their own songs?

Each season, the males develop new compositions, and they spread across entire ocean populations within months.

Starting June 1st, these extraordinary creatures are returning to the warm waters of St Lucia, and Advantage Tours is ready to take you to them.

As one of only two legal permit holders in the area, we are authorised to bring you within 50 metres of the whales. No other boats get that close.

The whales are coming. Are you?

This winter, don’t just dream about Africa… live it.

Trade busy city mornings for golden sunrises, crisp safari air, and unforgettable wildlife encounters in the heart of Zululand. From close-up rhino sightings to hippos drifting through the St Lucia Estuary, every moment becomes part of your story.

Our May & June Winter Special is designed for couples, friends, and families wanting a more personal safari experience, small groups, authentic guiding, and memories that stay with you long after the journey ends.

For only R2995 per person sharing (minimum 4 guests), enjoy:
• 2 Nights Accommodation in St Lucia
• Half Day Big 5 Safari in Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park
• Hippo & Crocodile Boat Cruise on the St Lucia Estuary

Cooler weather means some of the best game viewing of the year, fewer crowds, and the perfect time to explore Africa’s wild side.

Limited availability for May & June only.

Your Story. Your Safari.
