Amakhosi Safari Lodge has teamed up with Yoga with Virginia to create a luxurious yoga and safari retreat in the heart of Zululand.
Having run numerous successful retreats in breathtaking locations, such as overlooking the mighty Zambezi River, Virginia Burger is bringing her holistic programme to South African yogis from 8 – 11 September 2022.
The retreat will be repeated in October, for those who miss the first rejuvenating event.
Participating yogis will find themselves in a lap of luxury, surrounded by pristine, Big Five wilderness. The internationally-acclaimed safari lodge accommodates guests in opulently-furnished suites with floor-to-ceiling, panoramic views of the Mkuze River.
Amakhosi Private Game Reserve enjoys a prime location near the Swaziland border – a scenic 5½-hour drive from Johannesburg and just 4 hours from Durban.
The Lodge is also home to the elegant Amakhosi River Spa, a boutique Africology spa managed by fully trained, on-site body, skin and beauty therapists.
