Hi Leon,

During Dec we traveled to Durban and stayed over before and after our cruise on the MSC Orchestra. We made use of Discover Travel and Tours’s service to shuttle us to and fro.

I am writing to you to congratulate you and thank you for the excellence service we received. Collections were on time, the vehicles were clean and well maintained and the method of booking as well as the daily correspondence we received were very professional. The 2 Drivers who attended to us, Bheki and Kreasen, were very friendly and courteous. We felt safe and well cared for all the time. Kreasen knew the MSC terminal very well and saved us walking a long way to embark the ship.

We will definitely make use of your service again, when we next visit Durban. We highly recommend you services to anybody in need of being shuttled in Durban.

Thank you.

We decided to be tourists in our own city and do the Half Day Durban City Tour. What a nice surprise! Thabo, the tour guide, and Christopher, the driver, were relaxed, fun and informative. What we thought were 'no go' areas, turned out to be vibey and safe. Thabo obviously loves his role and embraces all aspects of Durban's colourful history and people. Booking and communication of the tour was also handled very professionally. We can't wait to try another of the Discover Durban tours.....

The Driver of the quantum, Sanele, was exceptionally well mannered and extremely helpful. He even helped with the setting of the table at the restaurant to match our requirements. With staff like this nobody could be unhappy and the outing was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Well done Discover Durban Travel & Tours.

We spent 4 nights in Durban and enjoyed two half day trips and one full day trip as well as a home meal. We were met at the airport and returned there on the final day. Our guide Christian was amazing; so knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. One of the highlights for me was golng back to the park where I was take daily as a baby then toddler and this was kindly fitted in to a half day trip around Durban where we saw all the main sights and went to a covered market where we bought spices. .We also had booked another half day trip where we went to Ghandi's birthplace. We also went to John Dube's grave, the politician who started the ANC and where in 1994 Mandela cast his vote there. Our full day was to Shakaland the Zulu village that was originally created for a film but has been retained as a living museum; We met Zulus, discovered how they had lived, enjoyed a meal and went to a lively show of Zulu dancing and music. Memorabler! One evening we were hosted by the owners of the company at their home and enjoyed a wonderful Indian meal, had a lesson on making samosas and as usual heard a lot of history, this time about the story of how the Indians came to South Africa. We are full of praise for the company and its faultless organisation..

Living in the Northcoast..Durban didn't have much of an attraction because of the calmness that spoilt us for Rush and Crowds..With our parents we did it all..and was more fascinating because living in the Wrong Era..it felt an honour to be admitted into Wonderland..but then as the years went by..the rate of accidents somehow kept us from busy Cities..and Familes began venturing out of the Borders . Tables turned when I came to live in Durban a year ago..and we got busy trying out different areas bed n breakfasts and were surprised Durban has led in upping its standards amazingly .. first they built places of worship and the Churches Temples and places of Worship built schools and decent living quarters for their priests and teachers hence you have buildings standing from 1895..then came the Justice System..that saw to the decent upkeep of Indentured Labourers and their Familes..Government was Flavour of the Time..that came from the trading Shippling Companies who fought and conquered rites first to The Cape Peninsular then Durban Port..Durban was a Colourful Heritage besotted with just as many Battles of Power in the East Coast First then West..and that has moulded Durban into the Beautiful City it is Today..The Port stands out as Most Improved of all at last..and Durbans Beaches Form The Greatest Attraction and it's beautiful Climate..I invite you to come Join in this Sweet Adventure..This Multi-Cultural Giant Adventure that keeps its Popularity alive in every Season throughout the Year..Never a Dull Season here..its here Great Historians were born Great Doctors Scierntists Architects Authors Educators..You look and discover the Hidden Treasures in Our Museums..Our Libraries..Our City Hall..that Host World Famous Culture like Passion Play that comes from a small Village in Germany every Five Years..this and all Durbans Spiritualy has made it what it Stands Out all over the World and brings the Tourists come back for more like a Place of Pilgrimage..so too does Durbans Multi-Cultural people travel out into the World on Pilgrimage in return..making our Economy grow Tremendously..I cannot label any One Attraction as Better than Another..I invite You at least to Come Taste Durbans Bunnychow

Always on time, professional, affordable, spotless and safe transport. Excellent service. We use Discover Durban exclusively when we run training programmes and need to transport our course participants on day-long field trips involving multiple site visits. Highly recommended.

Leon Rajoo and Desiree Rajoo were very helpful in giving us quotes and in setting up some transfers for us before leaving the US to travel to Zinkwazi Beach in Durban. They were very cooperative when I had difficulty with the electronic funds transfer to pay in advance. For our transfer from the airport to the beach house, they picked up 4 of us in a clean & spacious van, easily accommodating our delayed arrival due to bad weather. We had a Toyota sedan ride from the beach house to CBD Durban and to the airport again on two additional occasions. The drivers always arrived early, in professional attire, and drove quickly yet safely. Two of the ride requests were made the day before, and they were quite willing to accommodate. As an FYI, 1-way for 2 people from Zinkwazi beach to the Durban airport was R980. They were easy to reach via e-mail (which worked best for me) and very responsive
