Durban City Tour - Half Day (USD $50.00)
Durban is a multicultural City shaped by a complex collaborative history involving the early colonial settlers, the indigenous Zulu population, and the Indian community who arrived as indentured labourers in the 19th century.

The tour begins driving along the brand-new Golden Mile, the revitalized beachfront promenade which hugs the beckoning beaches of Durban. Travel through the City, visiting the majestic City Hall, and enjoying its humorous history! The Phansi Museum(closed Sundays) in Glenwood is home to a spellbinding collection of southern African artefacts and traditions - from beadwork and headrests, to Zulu clay pots and other intriguing clues to the diverse South African cultural history.

From history to nature, we visit the peaceful Durban Botanic Gardens founded in 1849, a treasure trove of massive trees from Asia, Africa and America, and a magnificent orchid house. Lastly, in harmony with Indian culture and history, you're going local...taste a unique Bunny Chow, traditional 'take-away' food of the Indian community... indeed of all South Africans!
