A taxi driver's tour of Durban, South Africa
South Africa's third-largest city is a unique blend of Zulu, Indian and European influences. Taxi driver Moosa Kajee takes Kevin Rushby on a tour of his city, stopping at the Victoria Street market for souvenirs, a cafe serving local fast food favourite Bunny chow, and the beachfront where he comes to chill out at the end of the day.

My Grandfather stopped in Durban on his way back to the UK from India after the end of World War II and said that when they left there were guys jumping off the ship into the sea to swim back because they loved it there so much, he wanted to stay too but went home to Cheshire to try and convince my Grandmother to go out there and settle, she didn`t want to...what`s really amusing is that 42 years later my Mom and Dad decided they wanted a better life for myself, my brother and my sister and we moved to Johannesburg, we did have a much better life than we did in the U.K in the early 80`s...what a shame that 34 years after we moved there , had set up a business, employed 38 South Africans, we all ended up leaving due to rampant crime and economic discrimination at the very hands of those Britain put in place to "Save" the country... Back in rainy and cold Cheshire now and hating every minute of it! I`d give my right arm to be sitting on a beach in Kwa Zulu Natal with a cold beer and thoughts of a 1/4 Mutton Bunny for dinner later...

@Tebogo Letsaba . . .Its a big No bru Pretoria and JoBurg are not better thn Durban, the only city in SA that we might say is better than Durban it's Cape Town . . . . Yes indeed I agree JoBurg may be the biggest city with more celebs but it aint better thn Durban at all. Remember how beautiful Durban is compared to Jo Burg other many things Durban has.
