Things to Do in Durban

Start with a tour of Phansi Museum and get to know the Zulu region through ancient collections and contemporary artistry. Follow the local history from apartheid to a busy brewery culture at Kwa Muhle Museum, just north of the harbour. From there you’ll hear the waves calling—or maybe that’s just your concierge reminding you to slather on the sun cream. Either way, hop on a rental bike or strike out on foot along the Golden Mile.

Don’t wander for too long, because you’ve got to start learning some local Zulu dances at the Phezulu Safari Park. Next, chow down in the Indian District, where you’ll get the scoop on beautiful gifts and delicious street cuisine in the largest Asian community outside…well, Asia. Once you’re stuffed with Durban’s signature curried veggie rolls—called bunny chow—nap away the food coma in one of the best Durban hotels.

Ready to roll again? Get back out there for an evening of South African jazz and pints with new friends.
