Stacey and J Sbu have had the opportunity to travel and experience the majestic beauty that our beautiful province has to offer with the #SweetEsape. This experience was made possible by Tourism KwaZulu-Natal and their campaign: #KZNHasItAll Believe It.  

READ: The third edition of the #SweetEscape brought to you by Tourism KwaZulu-Natal with Stacey and J Sbu was a significant homecoming.

For their fourth and final trip for 2020, the awesome duo travelled about 4 hours away from Durban, Umhlanga to eJozini, a small town on the main route to Mozambique. The team's first stop was eJozini Tiger Lodge, the perfect luxury getaway in the heart of nature. 

After having some refreshments, Stacey and J Sbu were then escorted to where they would spending their 2 nights stay in eJozini. The venue? Shayamanzi Houseboat.

Shayamanzi Houseboat, which is the first houseboats in South Africa, the only ones of their kind. 

Onboard Shayamanzi Houseboats, you get to soak up the stunning scenery of the Lebombo Mountains and superb wildlife of the Pongola Game Reserve on the shores of Lake Jozini (also known as Pongolapoort Dam). 

Whilst on board, Stacey and J Sbu had the opportunity to sight some elephants and hippos. 

Watch those videos below: 

Stacey and  J Sbu were under the care of captains Anthony and Allan during their stay, ever the liker of things J Sbu wanted to have a being behind the steering wheel.

Lake Jozini, offers numerous packages. The biggest draw card is Tiger Fishing however. 

According to Shayamanzi Houseboat, the Tiger Fish is a fierce and wild creature that demands respect from all forms of life that may happen across its path. The Tiger Fish is regarded by most as being the best freshwater game fish in Africa.


On Saturday morning, J Sbu tried his hand at Tiger fishing:

Like with all other #SweetEscape adventures, Stacey and J Sbu always managed to get time to be fun and silly but also some down time to just soak in the incredible views. 

There was still time for the team to hop on a social media challenge, this after the son of Jacob Zuma, Duduzane was trending because of the way he walks. Yes, you heard right, Duduzane Zuma was trending because of the way he walks. 

According to the ladies, his walk has 'that thing'.
