About Durban
Durban is South Africa's warm Indian Ocean city and the gateway to KwaZulu-Natal. Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park, the oldest proclaimed game reserve in Africa and a stronghold for rhino, is about three hours north, with the iSimangaliso Wetland Park and St Lucia close by. The city is known for its beachfront promenade, its Indian-influenced cooking (bunny chow started here) and an easy climate all year. Our Kruger and Zululand safari finishes here.
