The harbour city of Durban boasts a year-round mild almost sub-tropical climate. A truly cosmopolitan city with a large Indian cultural group, its attraction is the "Golden Mile", the 7km seafront where excellent beaches, hotels, restaurants and shopping centres are to be found. Durban is the ideal departure point for visits to the Drakensberg Mountains, Big Five Game Parks of KwaZulu-Natal and the Zulu nation's hinterland.

Included: All accommodation (sea facing) and breakfasts. Nissan Tiida sedan (Manual) with unlimited mileage and super insurance cover.

Valley of a Thousand Hills
A day trip along the southern ridge of the Valley of a Thousand Hills will reward you with incomparable views of the seemingly endless rolling hills where the local Zulus still live in the traditional way. Visit the Phezulu cultural complex and the Assagay Safari Park where there is a fine restaurant.
