Additional Information

Experience Durban, a vibrant city often referred to as the cultural ‘melting pot’ of South Africa, on our comprehensive tour. The route includes a scenic drive along the sports district showcasing its grand sporting venues, and a visit to the Blue Lagoon locale on the Umgeni River providing a breathtaking panoramic view of Durban’s entire harbor.

Next, we pass by the historical Apartheid Beaches, the Marine Parade (also known as the Golden Mile), where you’ll spot traditional rickshaws, on the way to the remarkable construction happening at the new Point Waterfront region. Venturing past Africa’s busiest port and numerous historical landmarks, we navigate through the city center, where the unique stories of the original Railway Station, City Hall, and Post Office buildings unfold.

The journey includes a stop at the Indian Market, offering a peek into Indian culture and the opportunity to negotiate prices for keepsakes and aromatic spices. Lastly, we tour the Botanical Gardens. Here you’ll appreciate a broad range of global flora, the renowned cycad collection, and the exquisite orchid garden.

Amazing Experience - We had a wonderful experience not only of Durban but also people of Durban as our chauffeur Zamani is an excellent human being. He is indeed an excellent tour guide with indepth knowledge of the city. He knows well how to care for his customers and knows how to make best use of time 😊 Thanks Viator for appointing such wonderful souls 😊
