The Market for African Stuff!
If you’re looking for African stuff including beads, handcraft and African prints, the Victoria Street Market in Durban is the place to visit!
A must visit if you are in Durban
We were informed that the Chief of Police did not recommend cruise passenger to visit the downtown Durban (unless on an organised excursion). After our visit to the Botanic Gardens yesterday via the excellent People Mover buses We were confident to visit here on our own. This is a market for local people although there are plenty of stalls selling souvenirs. At no time did we feel uncomfortable or intimidated and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.The Great Market! Loved the spice shops and very nice African bead and basket shops. Very interesting, especially pleased to see locals shopping there! Recommend you taxi there.

Authentic Zulu Traditional Products
I am a collector of South African tribal crafts. The Victoria Street Market is the best market for a wide variety of non-touristy products is this market. Prices vary so be prepared to bargain. It’s in town so consider taking an Uber.
A one stop bargain shop
A must for those traveling to Durban and looking for handicrafts. Make sure to bargain, prices will definitely drop. Plenty of stalls from which you can buy and bargain. Prices for handicrafts and souvenirs are cheaper here than Johannesburg. If you are there on a Friday make sure to walk across to thensure ramp/bridge where local ladies showcase and sell their handicrafts. Awesome, wonderful, and beautiful display of handmade items. A must for ladies or if you want to gift your lady something unique and special.
