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.
