My friend Marco and me went down to Durban to explore the things to do in Durban and some more sights in Kwazulu-Natal. As usual I tried to mix sightseeing in South Africa with some cool activities, such as the big rush, a multi day trek in the Drakensberg mountains or a Segway tour in Durban.
For doing all this we rented a car and drive through the region for about 10 days with activities booked a few weeks ahead.
You can use this guide to prepare and plan your own trip to this region, therefore I included all Spots and companies we used along the way.
All Things to do in Durban & Kwazulu-Natal as shown in this episode:
- Durban waterfront
- Helicopter ride in Durban
- Station Drive, Durban
- Segway Tour in Durban
- Township tour in KwaMashu
- Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park
- Hilltop Camp
- Drakensberg mountains
- Sentinel, Amphitheatre and Tugela Falls
- Witsieshoek Mountain Lodge

- About my Cooperation with South African Tourism-
I got invited by South African Tourism (www.dein-suedafrika.de/) to produce this video showcasing my travel experience. I was free to create my very own itinerary with all the freedom needed. Nevertheless all opinions, recommendations and views are my own.

SA is beautiful
My hometown ❤️ proudly South African🇿🇦🤗
Beautiful Macele😍😘😗💋💋
Hi how goes? Can I give you my phone nomber for tchating?
Hey!
I'm so proud! Born n bred in KZN
@Duncan Sands type KZN tourism in Google and all is in there. Remember, this is a third world country, public transport is decades behind. No fancy trains crisscrossing the country like in England. But with a Ford Ranger you can get anywhere. Because you are looking for Midlands activities, historical sites and tiger fishing, the ideal lodge is Jozini Tiger Fishing lodge, but for snorkeling you may need to look into Maputo along Mozambican coastal islands. Driving by yourself is unheard of and never recommended.
Thank you for a true depiction of my home, Durban, KwaZulu Natal
Cannot Wait until south africa collapses and is placed back in the right hands. WWIII and civil war coming close to help cleanse the world, cannot wait.
@@ven_one SA will never collapse kid, its the most powerful country on the continent
@Musawenkosi Mathe wait until the Real Machine arrives, then we can talk again, well that all depends on how the Machine deals with you. 😉😉😉
S'tambile your are a true south african
@@ven_one Stick to 4chan m8
It’s such a beautiful country studied there for my undergrad. Durban was my fav city. Massively underrated.
Home ❤🇿🇦
Proudly south African I just miss my country
Durban has a spiritual heart no amount of "sightseeing" can touch. I'm so grateful for that.
Oh my world.
I really need to go back to South Africa.
One of the, if not THE most beautiful country in the world.

Beautiful place . I have recently found out that my great grandfather was from KwaZulu Natal and he settled in Malaysia almost 100 yrs ago ... He was an Indian decedent and a horseman for the British. I believed there must be some long lost family members living in KwaZulu Natal now... 🤔
Zulu Kingdom, dats where we are from!
Nqobani Msomi is there shit in the water?? I saw video with turds floating around
@@kingmufasa8929 did you have to be that negative? Durban is just beutiful, just accept it. I wonder wwhere you at?

Not at the moment, only after WWIII when things are returned to the way they once were. Bring on civil war and WWIII
@@ven_one Africa is the land of the blacks. Whites don't belong there you Fool!
Ven One can you fuck off! Lol white people have no claim to anything on that continent. It’s sad how barbaric and primitive you think.

Every 5 days a white farmer is murdered in South Africa.... God bless the oppressed minority
@@karlkarg4713 did you really have to bring that negative energy.
@karl karg very childish
@@karlkarg4713 every few minutes a coloured and black child is murdered in townships.
@@karlkarg4713 idiot why do you think they are killed most white farmers are racist Afrikaaners and get killed by workers they have mistreated.
This is why I always tell people, you'd have to bring something very important for me to leave KwaZulu Natal
proudly from kzn
Amazing 👏 place
I love ❤️ Durban and SA
Quite Lucky to spent 2 golden years of my life there- would love to visit again and again and again

Gonna visit Durban beach soon
I'm from PMB I still wanna visit Isimangaliso wetland
I live in durban and it is a great place
Great video! We are planning to go on hiking tour South Africa and this video really helped get a perspective. Question: how did you book the travel guides on your hiking and how much in advance do you need to book?
Hey Steve, just found your channel, so I'm a brand new fan! Loving your style, I can see I'm gonna be binge watching a lot of your channel this weekend! ha ha
I wanna go!!!! Haven't been to my home city in ages.. Hope London to Durban stay resumed next year!!! Need to do tourists things for once since ticket are scorching high
Durban is better than Johannesburg
100% it is better. Only time tourists fly into Johannesburg is to go to Kruger.
Nope
Of course! It’s coastal lol they don’t really compare.
Stop smoking alone
When you say that everyone is like no Johannesburg is better but when you say Cape Town is better everyone will agree with you
I lived in KZN and you went to the best parts of it,just be glad you missed the bad parts,south africa,still the best
Bad part??I'm sure you are a white Afrikaner and jealous of black people
Seas the loser sitting on his couch with nothing better to do than look at comments
Typical white
