1. The first stop on this tour is the Durban Botanical Gardens. Here we will meet a passionate local horticulturalist who will help you unlock this living museum after all these gardens have museum status.

3. If you're looking for a keepsake from South Africa, there's no better place. Visit the KwaZulu Natal Society of the Arts and browse their gift shop. Everything sold at KZNSA is sourced from sustainable programmes throughout the province or from one of the many NGOs that partners with the gallery.

   30 min

4. If you've not heard about Durban's famous "Bunny Chow" by now, you're in for a happy surprise. Lunch is at CaneCutters Restaurant home to Durban's best "Bunny Chow" — well according to us and a few awards that is. Try the traditional "1/4 mutton bunny" or one of the various options from vegetarian to local delicacies. Lunch is at your own expense.

   1 h

5. There are 2 ways of visit the markets, the touristy way and the immersive way. We prefer the latter after all, the Victoria Street Market is only 1 of the many markets at Warwick Junction. Meet our colleagues from Asiye eTafuleni (a local NGO) that works intimately with the traders of the Markets. Explore the various sides to the markets from the Lime Ladies to Muthi Bridge and beyond.

   1 h

6. Travel through the inner city as your guide unlocks the history and heritage with anecdotes and city secrets. Take in the colonial architecture and art deco buildings. Check out Moses Mabhida Stadium and if you are an adrenaline junkie, perhaps sign up for the BigRush (Jump off the Tallest Swing on the planet).

About Durban

Durban is South Africa's warm Indian Ocean port, a city of golden beaches, Zulu and Indian culture, curry and the hills of KwaZulu-Natal.

Durban sits on a natural bay on the Indian Ocean in KwaZulu-Natal, and its port is one of the busiest in Africa. The Golden Mile, a promenade backed by hotels and lined with sand, runs along the beachfront, and the Moses Mabhida Stadium, built for the 2010 World Cup, has a great arch that visitors can climb or ride up. The city has a subtropical climate with warm sea water all year.
