Durban is a destination that will appeal to anyone who wants to enjoy a beach holiday with a dense urban backdrop. It is undeniably South African but with plenty of cheap Durban hotels throughout it has a touristy sheen which will put you at ease.
A flight to Durban from a UK airport will take 13 to 14 hours, usually with a brief stopover in Johannesburg to make the connecting flight if no direct route is available. Durban flights land at King Shaka International Airport and once you have got through customs after cheap flights to Durban there is a 22 mile transfer into the city which should take around 40 minutes.
You can pick up car rental in Durban to get around on your trip, although the public options and sanctioned taxis are cheap and widely available if you do not want to hire a vehicle. Many hotels will have their own car services on call as well if you want to tour the city in air-conditioned style.
The beach is the focal point for most tourist activities during a stay in Durban, with its golden sand and impressive waves attracting both lounge lizards and surfing enthusiasts. For a change of pace the Durban Botanical Gardens are filled with tropical flora and if you want a trip out of the city KwaZulu Natal National Park is available for a little safari action after Durban flights.
