Metered taxis
There are plenty of metered taxis operating in and around the city. They are safe and relatively inexpensive. These taxis operate in key zones, including the airport, beachfront, city centre and accommodation and entertainment nodes within Durban. Registered metered taxis are clearly marked with a coloured stickers (see above), so that you can be assured of a safe and professional service.
Minibus taxis
Minibus taxis are hard to miss as they often have music pumping and someone hanging out of a window touting for passengers. Ask the locals for assistance when choosing a minibus taxi route.
