30th January 2003125th anniversary
By Julian Whybra
I was wondering whether anyone knows of any reputable Zulu War organization which is arranging a visit to Isandhlwana/RD for the 125th anniversary in 2004. I would imagine that if something is going to be run it'd be being organized now. Both I and my son would be really keen to take part.

I should imagine there will be several tours being organized, yet I haven't heard specific details yet. A rumour I've heard is of a possible re-enactment at Rorke's Drift so, yes, now is about the right time to be planning as most hotels and lodges are bound to get booked up.

A re-inactment took place this year at both Rorkes Drift and Isandlwana so I would say it is almost certain to be a big affair next year and I would imagine most operators of these tours will arrange to coincide with the 125 anniversary thing is with so many likely to want to go and the lack of room in lodges and hotels you will have to get in early
