Located 6 miles from downtown, the first thing you'll need is the key to one of our superb rental vehicles. A full-size car will bring you around Durban in total comfort and style — or perhaps you want to detour off the beaten track and explore lesser-known areas with a robust four-wheel drive. If you want to effortlessly zip around the city, we'd recommend picking a compact or economy car. They might not be as roomy, but they'll be fantastic at gliding into those tight parking lots.
