]]> During our visit of South Africa last year we used the Southern Explorer for planing some of the tours. It’s a guide which is published by the Southern Explorer Association as a free service to visitors to KwaZulu-Natal. The Association has chosen the rare Samango Monkey (Cercopithecus Mitis) as a mascot and logo. It is a shy but also a highly social animal.

We decided to go the tour 3 which is the spectacular Oribi Gorge Nature Reserve. It’s about 22km inland from Port Shepstone and a popular weekend getaway or day-excursion destination. Self-guided trails reveal an array of antelope and birds. High sandstone cliffs dominate the 24km long gorge carved out by the Umzimkulwana River.
