Well organized day trips

I found Shelldon very easy to communicate with whilst sorting out four days tours from Durban. Sani Pass Day Trip : What an adventure to Lasotho with spectacular scenery on route, had a great driver/guide in Patrick, Isithumba Zulu Day Trip: We visited a Zulu village that most tourists don’t visit and learned a lot about the Zulu culture. This was followed by an entertaining Zulu Show. Durban Combined City and Freedom Trail Tour: The Zulu and Indian Markets were fascinating as was the visit to the botanical gardens. At the gardens we saw unique trees. This was followed by a bunny chow lunch and a visit to Gandi’s home in South Africa. St Lucia Day trip: This was a three-hour drive in each direction with Paul as our drive/guide. WE had a morning game drive where we saw many native animals. The highlight of the day was a two-hour estuary cruise where the hippos were a sight to be held. I would recommend Shelldon and his team if travelling to Durban.

Operator response

Thanks so much for your review! It was great to meet you both :)

Good for an authentic feel of Durban.

Paul was waiting when our ship docked and we were the first ones off and away- really easy and convenient. The botanical gardens were great and he put us on a golf cart with a guide from the gardens who was very knowledgeable and showed us all sorts of things we would have missed on our own. We also got to see it all in relative quiet before the ship excursions arrived! Paul then walked us around Durban's historical buildings and the fascinating Zulu markets, warning us when it was / wasn't safe to take photos. We always felt safe with him and he had a real insight into local daily life here. The time spent walking around these areas seemed a really authentic experience. He also drove and stopped for us along the waterfront area explaining how they've stopped shark attacks in recent years.
