Excursion Overview
Stroll through South Africa's oldest Botanical Gardens with a passionate horticulturalist discovering their unique collection of cycads, orchids and secret to invisibility. Unlock the trendy suburb of Glenwood on foot and track down the public portfolios of local street artists. Meet Mama Nkosi, otherwise known as the dancing curator of one of the largest collections of traditional art as she reveals indigenous beliefs and tribal culture. Tuck into lunch (own expense) and sample some of the popular flavours and taste sensations of Durban (ever tried a bunny chow?) With your energy levels restored, enter into the beating heart of the city – Victoria Street Market – accompanied by the social warriors from Asiye eTafuleni.
Drive through the city centre as your guide brings it to life with historical anecdotes and an encyclopaedia of knowledge. Moses Mabhida Stadium isn’t just great to look at, it’s also terrific to jump off (for your own cost). Finish the day by exploring the creative hub that is the Station Drive Precinct.
