Dhayan said that the tour will begin at the corner of Mint Road and Albertina Sisulu Street.
“[We will explore] a Hindu prayer shop, a Pakistani sweet shop, [and] the fresh produce market [that sells] traditional Durban Indian vegetables,” he said.
The tour will also include stops at a Nepali Ayurvedic medicine shop, a dried fruit and nut factory, an Egyptian hookah shop, a Palestinian schwarma shop, a Turkish kebab shop, and the city’s largest Gujarati spice shop.
“We will conclude with an optional lunch at a traditional Indian restaurant,” said Dhayan.
