  • It is a friendly city - Durbanites do not pretend their love, warmth, and hospitable character. Durban has diverse and genuine people. If you are a "vibey" person and ready for assimilation we suggest a visit. Mingle with everyone from the Durban Harbour, KwaMashu for a braai(barbecue) and music, and Tongaat for India curry cuisines.

Not to mention people who have settled from different parts of the world who are now citizens. It's all about multicultural races and learning from everyone whom you meet, from local slang, cuisine, and music. Make a wise choice and visit in April for the Chariots Party.
