Durban Trip Overview
The Drakensberg Mountain range has an undulating, dominating beauty.
This full-day sightseeing heritage tour goes through the Drakensberg mountain range, a full 3-kilometer round trip hike, but in addition to traveling through such breathtaking vistas, we’re going to visit the World Heritage Site, Giant’s Castle, and the enigmatic Bushman paintings in the vicinity.

Our return to Durban is via a visit to the Nelson Mandela Capture Site – a historically significant moment in South African history and now commemorated with a world-class sculpture, in memory of Nelson Mandela and his heroic role in the struggle against apartheid.
