“We are a City hard at work. Tourists that come to our city should automatically be our ambassador when they are gone back home. We will only do that by ensuring that we unceasingly meet their needs. Hopping on the Ricksha Bus is the most convenient way for them to explore the City’s tourism offerings where one is able to sight-see scenic overviews of a range of Durban’s major attractions, while learning about the City’s history, its people and their heritage, cultural diversity and many more. It is going to be an experience that will forever be engraved in the minds of many of our tourists we are very excited” said Gumede.
The newly launched Rickshas buses will cover more routes that include three more regions of the city with more emphasis on township and rural tourism.
