Then move through the City, viewing the majestic City Hall, and enjoying its humorous history! Then continue to the small craft harbour viewing the 8th largest harbour in the world.

From culture to nature, you 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. Then conclude with a visit to an icon of Kwazulu Natal, the Moses Mabhida Stadium where you will have the option of experiencing the cable car ride (own account) to the top of the Stadium for that phenomenal view of Durban and its surroundings.
