Umhlanga Ridge Car Rental Mini Guide
Umhlanga Ridge is one of the best places for shopping along the Indian Ocean coast of South Africa. Most people fly into King Shaka International Airport and then hire a car for the drive to the top hotels of Umhlanga Rocks, below the ridge that hosts the purpose-built retail, commercial and residential centre.
There are many domestic flights flying into Durban Airport and international flights such as
UAE,
