I've been in Johannesburg for 21 yrs, after been born and raised in Durban. I love Durban, but really love Joburg as well. They are 2 different cities. Durban more laid back, Joburg a more vibrant cosmopolitan city. Most people who move jo Joburg are more career driven. Definitely my 2 favourite South African cities 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Royston Sanders I commute to Johannesburg from Pretoria daily for work. I have been doing that for 2 years and I enjoy Johannesburg to the core, but I am due to transfer to Pretoria and that means less driving for me. Jo'burg is more live and vibrant. Mzansi for sure ! 🇿🇦🇿🇦🎷
Having lived in JHB and now in Durban too, I couldn't have explained it better
Huh! Fancy finding you here Royston! 🤣😂 I was missing Durban and found Jermaine's videos. Jermaine Johannesburg grows on you I think.
@@bevs707 hello Sister 😁
What are the safest, best infrastructure places to live in Joburg or Durban?
Thanks in advance, best regards.
I live in Durban, near the central part, the people here, all the wonderfully diverse cultures, really are so warm and friendly and I’m glad you enjoyed it. 🌹 its a beautiful place. Much nicer and safer than Jo’burg.
It’s feels so good 😊 to here how good Durban is.. I am not SA. But I am going to visit there..
Jermaine, my wife and I just happened to stumble upon your videos and we subscribed. We love your videos and we totally agree with you. We've been to Cape Town, Joburg and Durban. We just felt at home in Durban. The food, the people, the scenery, all beautiful! Didn't get the same feeling in Cape Town and there was so much hype around it too. Durban is the most slept on place in my opinion.
50 seconds into your first Durban video and I already fell in love with skyline and the general vibe.
Thanks for making this video bro! Coming from Chicago to live in Durban changed my life forever. The unofficial Zulu capital is an inverse USA. For white folks, it's a litmus test of their internalized superiority and guilt. But black American must visit Durban. It will always be home for me.
Thats cool. Are you retired, if not what do you do for a living there? I'm a brother from CA and looking to at least visit the continent and explore some long term possibilities.
Lol brother u really loved Durban come back u always welcome in the kingdom of the zulu
I think I know why your friends felts unsafer in Durban and you did'nt. They felt outnumbered.
Yep that is exactly why.
it is much safer in Durban compare to JHB, only one area in CBD of Durban that you can be a victim of robbery of which is POINT but all in all it is very very cool and safe place to be.
@@siyabongasihle5750 What you mean you gone walk at 320, not even Albert St with a macbook on your head just cos its not in point?
@Andre Knowledge357 go fuck yourself.
@@siyabongasihle5750 Its weird hey, I feel much safer in Durban, I am a white guy and I have so many friends in Durban, mostly Zulu guys. I think its a state of mind, I hate JHB , its cold and scary lol
I feel like the 6 dislikes you got are from Johannesburg residents LOL!
Dhi Bee, lol 😂 I'm from JHB so I shouldn't laugh or agree but u probably right 😂
Spot on👏
Tell me when you come back to Durban so i can take you to Richards bay the better cousin of Durban just North in Zululand. and we can explore the Zulu kingdom also. youll love it.....I feel like you needed a guide in Joburg it certainly needs someone who knows the place to show you around.
Accidental Zulu Home!! Its so beautiful and yazi abazi! And super clean too.
Agreed
I've been watching your vlogs because as a South African I have a vested interest in what you have to say. I've noticed that you prefer to travel to the less popular more grungy places and that's fine because that's the type of experience you're seeking. But you should also realize that the more upmarket/ "'touristy" areas that you seem so dismissive of, are a part of South Africa as well. Normal South Africans live and operate in these spaces as well, they are not just for tourists. I am a black South African and I would be reluctant to go to some of the areas you have visited because I wouldn't feel safe or comfortable. It almost seems as if you are disappointed by the upmarket areas of South Africa because they might not match your expectations of what a developing African nation should be; however, as a travel vlogger I feel that you should show all sides of the countries you visit for what they are.
Durban and Joburg are two very different cities
How so?
I was born and raised in Durban, been on taxi's multiple times and walked through the CBD a few times. Went to Jozi and got mugged my first night there! Lol.
What happened? How did they mugged you? Jozi is fu$ing dangerous. i dont go out at night in Jozi
@@901cali we went out at night there and a friend and I walked to a gas station to draw some money. On our way back a security guard asked us if we were okay and where we were going. So we told him but probably shouldn't have. Anyways just before we got back these two guys run up from behind us and held us at gun point and knives. My mate kicked it and managed to get away but they just got my phone. Luckily they weren't to serious about hurting us just wanted a quick job or something. Anyways just get an uber 😂👌🏻
@@tylersage7507 true dude , Durban is so safer for me in joburg police enforcement is so poor and the city is so dirty.
I'm south African but I'm scared of jhb.
😂😂
Me too 🙈🙈
Guys Johannesburg isn't bad.It's just the stories you've had about it.I'm from Durban living in Johannesburg.
Durban is the best city in South Africa period.
Is it safe to go to the beach??
@@bezman2499 Of course. All beaches are safe in Durban.
@@faadiljoosab4774 well said
It beautiful
Durban is a lovely city. I usually go to Pretoria but I really loved Durban. Different vibe.
#fact Durban rock's
I grew up in Joburgs East, moved to Durban when I was 19 and I couldn't be happier! I live in those North suburbs you didn't want to visit😂 but the city and the beaches are beautiful everywhere. The north is very modern, with some great architecture, but the older art deco and colonial buildings in Durban city are really special. Visit again soon!
Great stuff! Do you know if any other nice coastal towns and cities in Africa?
Jermaine, thank you for this!!! I’m currently in Cape Town and looking forward to making it over to Durban. Someone in my hostel dorm was kind of trashing it the other day and she pissed me off even though I’ve never even been there LOL! I suspect her underlying reasons for not feeling it were similar to those of your friends.
Also, thank you for commenting on how people’s constant commentary on safety in South Africa can really affect the headspace you’re in when you’re visiting a city. I’m finding that I constantly feel stressed in Cape Town, and it feels like a lot if it is the anxiety people force down your throat. (I’m also a solo female traveler.) I understand they mean well, but it really is true that the only things people say to you are about how you will be robbed and raped and murdered and raped again. It’s interesting how the warnings also become their own form of aggression and hostility. But again, I understand that people just want to make sure you’re watching out for yourself.
You ever making it to Pretoria Jermaine? It used to be pretty chilled when I lived there for 5 years.
A lovely neat city with lots of trees, especially Jacarandas
Durban is on my travel list 🙌❤
Hi Jermaine, if you can you should visit Mozambique it has the same vibe as Durban. You will love it!
Nop it is not the Same Durban is more beautiful than Mozambique
you forgot to mention that Durban has the most South Asians of any city in SA.
Please visit Limpopo or Mphumalanga next time you're in SA but do so with a local.
Johannesburg is the biggest city in the world that is not located near a source of water. It was build only for the gold that was discovered there.
Hey, I live in Durban and recently the weather has not been great but Durban does have the best weather in South Africa basically most of the time. From December-January the Durban heat becomes unbearable and super humid.
I'm a FBD (Full Blood Durbanite)
I guess that makes me an HBD.
@@xXPyrophorusXx and what's that?
Quite surprised to hear that there are people saying they feel safer in Johannesburg then Durban. But Durban seems to have less crime. Idk. Durban just seem to have a better reputation. Jermaine why didn't you compare and contrast Durban and Cape Town
Didnt you notice the large group of indians living in durban?
Graeme Cross they are still a minority and downtown Durban is mostly black
Thanks Jermaine!
Im not sure what day you wer here in 031 but Friday's to Sundays r lit. Talking abt the night life.
LOL - Windy Durban - it only gets windy at the end of the year
Just discovered your channel really enjoying! I love Durban too! Think I'd probably live there (or better even Maputo) IF they had Joburg volume of culture and street life, but they don't so I need my Joburg hustle keep me ticking. Joburg misses only a beach and some ocean. Also Uber - wow, imagine the time before Uber in Joburg! it was.. Frustrating to say the least! Uber is my lazy lifeline, walk even the shortest distances in summer cos that burn without sea breeze, no thanks. They still don't know where they going tho, drive you through the worst routes, by their own choice 😂
Safe travels home. Please come again to South africa.
You went to a part of Joburg that most of us don’t even go to. You went to the “projects” and are judging Joburg based on that. 😂
Hi Jermaine. You did say in a video that you though booking was better than hostelworld, why is that? I know booking also has hostels, but it has the same amount than hostelworld? Also, what about airbnb, have you ever try it?
The next time you come to Durban go to Florida road, the night life is really good there
Visit Umhlanga
I agree with you on Durban, I live here. I don't think you got the best of Durban though until you come where we all live, in the projects but we call them townships.
Next time you come to Durban please hit me up I'll take you places where blacks live the vibe here is amazing. Umlazi, KwaMashu, Claremont please come back
Siyabonga Ncube i would love if you could do that for me
My mom's hometown is Durban. Every ex-pat SA says Durban is like Florida. Verbatim. Shocked to hear that Jo'Burg is hotter.
The man is literally singing praise for Durban ✊
Bruh Johannesburg has a higher percentage of blacks than durban
Full of foreigners in Johannesburg
@@craigdavidson1493 They are still black though they come from Zimbabwe and Malawi Nigetia etc......
@@madtingz8004 they don't belong in South Africa
@Mchlest Jezl South Africa is not the Same
@Mchlest Jezl Do they live there or are they tourist? I saw a lot of tourists in Durban when I went.
And Johannesburg has the night life man.
The mean mugging game in Joburg is on another level brother.
Yaaaassss. Durban Represent👌💞💞👌. I luv my city. WENTWORTH. #WENTIES
Durban is Tops!!!
Durban is the city to live in bro
When are you going to visit Luanda Angola
Expensive
I ❤️ Durban
Durban is cool and all but Durban needs Johannesburg to survive with economics
North Durban is cool but people is a bit snob. South Durban is more fun!!!
My friend that story of yours of talking to strangers offering to do your hair is how people get mugged in durban
Lies
You better stop throwing shade on South Africa because quarantine means not a lot of people get robbed or killed
Next time when you are in SA check out Pretoria not far from JHG
In Joburg you definitely needed someone who knows the place to take you around. Its a very large city with so much to do. E.g. when you went to the Carlton Centre, had there been a local with you, they would have told you to go up to the 50th floor. The highest public viewing place anywhere in Africa. Its only R30. The views are amazing. You get to see the entire Joburg. To see the much more wealthier places in Joburg I recommend you take the Gautrain to Rosebank & Sandton (where you'll get to visit the Nelson Mandela Square & lots of opulent stores) . In Rosebank you also get an opportunity to hop onto one of those Red double decker rooftop tour buses that will take you allover Joburg with the history of the city being explained to you. Also visit Monte Casino located in Fourways(the north). Visit the place at night if you want the best experience. Tons and Tons of restaurants there. Lastly I'll recommend you visit Gold Reef City Theme park in the South of the city. Again, if you love shopping you're at the right city. Joburg has more shopping malls than many other 1st world cities combined. It's a fact, google it. It's also worth taking the same train (Gautrain) North to Pretoria (Capital city of SA). Its cleaner and way less congested than Joburg. Its only 50km away from Joburg and takes about 35min on the Gautrain. When you get there you can take an Uber to the Union Buildings (Seat of Government) and also maybe Menlyn Mall(largest in the country).
@Hosea that info was very helpful...
The center of Durban is dangerous literally anybody will get robbed that's y wen the guy pulled the needle out like you mentioned I thought you got robbed ngl durban is kwl we have unmarked areas like Florida rd in musgrave amazing night life and then like umhlanga as well
You were in Joburg during a heat wave. Actually the climate of JHB is among the best anywhere, nice and warm summer days with regular afternoon thunder showers to cool things off, and clean the air, whereas Durban gets unbearably hot and humid.
i guess you never been in Durban.
Yeah, last week was bizarre hot in Joburg!
@@agrid2608 normally it is very hot in Johannesburg in summer and very cold in winter, unlike Durban where you experience a warm temperature in summer and winter. literally we dont experience much cold and very hot weather in Durban unlike JHB.
@@siyabongasihle5750 I guess you've never been to Joburg.
@@jimbobjones1858 Durban is cool Summer and winter it is cool Johannesburg people love Durban cs they know it unlike GP
You didnt see night life in durban becoz you didnt go to Florida rd how did you miss it wen you stayed in the CBD or you like to call it city central
There are so many tourists in Durban, their just all South Africa so their hard to spot
Cape coloured forever.
Durban my City. The city of Gqom
Love Durban 🏖️🌴🌊⛱️🏄
When you come to South Africa again,hit me up I'll show you around.I know All the 3 cities..
Hey Jermaine,,, next time you come to South Africa you must visit Pretoria.Its the capital city of South Africa. You'll love the historic sites, botanical garden and the Jacaranda trees. Nice and neat city. 🇿🇦🎷
Ur Durban weather sounded bad unno normally tropical weather
031 is the best ...Durban
I hope your next African visit will be in Angola
Weather/turbulence- geoengineering dude
You can't perceive the risk of crime by just walking around. These judgments should be made based on statistics which are available online. I don't recall with precision but as best I can remember Durban was every bit as dangerous as Johannesburg. Full disclosure - never been to Durban.
Sports Actuary quit stalking his page! You are sooooo needy!!!! Ugh
@@catoceo9887 Lol.
@@catoceo9887 You Africans that are initiating quarrels with me know I am telling the truth. You don't give a shit about Jermaine or any other African American visiting South Africa other than wishing that he spends every dollar he has before leaving. We African Americans are ignorant to how xenophobic you are regarding Africans from countries to the north of you. Y'all HATE them. I shall continue to make it my mission to protect my people by providing them with the best intelligence I have.
@@sportsactuary8574 You have none.
@@brot6238 All y'all can do is toss insults at a person about whom you know nothing. When are you going to promote the virtues of your people or your country? I don't want to hear about institutions or industries the Afrikaners created.
Durban is the best place... it becomes negative if you come with racist shit, mingle withe the locals and you will see its a great place
真希望我在南非可以遇到跟你一樣帥的黑人小哥，然後有個浪漫約會
Sorry dude that guy ripped u off😂
R300?! For u that may be cheap for u but for South Africans thats crazy expensive but he clearly over charged u cause he realized u a tourist😂
That guy is from Mozambique
Exactly who gets robbed in Joburg the wealthy? South Africa is the richest country on the African Continent. Johannesburg is the richest city. Kinda surprised you were uncomfortable. It's the San Francisco, and New York of South Africa. So if feel comfortable in these two cities why not there. I would question the information and the person giving the information.
Give it another try at a later date maybe connect with a local African tour guide or someone local who knows the culture to show you around that isn't scared that the color of their skin might make them a target.
Nigeria is actually the richest country in Africa using GDP alone but using GDP per capita Equatorial Guinea is the richest country in Africa followed by Seychelles, Mauritius, Gabon, Botswana, Algeria then South Africa.
@@sylviasworld9397 How many South Africans do you find in Nigeria? And how many Nigerian immigrants live in South Africa. That should answer your question about who is richer.
@@africanandproud6792 I gave you a list of Africans richest using GDP per capita. Nigeria was not mentioned in my list so calm down.
@@sylviasworld9397 GDP or GDP per capita is western nonsense and its a very poor measure of a country 's actual wealth and prosperity. South africa has the most developed economy and infrastructure on the african continent. South Africa, more than any country on your list, is closest to a developed country on the entire african continent. Its the reason why South Africa, and not Nigetia or Botswana or whoever, is part of the G20. Its the reason why tbey are part of Brix. When Africa needs an africam country to host its first Fifa world Cup, who gets the nod? The onky rugby world cup in africa was staged in South Africa. The only cricket world cup was staged in South Africa. The only country that has hosted formula 1 racing in Africa is South Africa. Where do you think the Olympics would be held? Botswana? Guinea? You know the answer to that. Its no coincidence, the infrastructure in South Africa matches that of the industrialized world. Dont be fooled by GDP. China has the second largest GDP( behind America) but its a poor country compared to Denmark, for example. None of the countries you mentioned are richer than South Africa. None.
@@africanandproud6792Proud. Was it not you talking about "that should answer your question about who is richer" is that not a western capitalist concept, even your idea of what is "developed" is a western concept and you will measure it will be by western capitalist standards will you not? Black South Africans are not in Nigeria, but quite a few White ones are. Anyway, I don't wish to waste time here on you talking about a comment from 5 months ago.
Can't believe you did a video with no pictures OR VIDEO of what you are talking about on TH-cam.. How this got views blows my mind.
he has videos on the the cities he's talking about... you should check them out
Bro stop saying alot of black ppl live there the way you make it seem like no other ppl do I'm sure you wouldn't like it if I come to America and say that alot of whites or 99% are whites you feel left out in your home how do you think I feel rn
I would have dressed you like a South African and let go of the camera and take you to Soweto just to experience SA.
Whadd up bro
I wish you didn’t leave that place out just cuz of white ppl
Never even heard of Durban😂
durban is kak
First!
2nd
Luanda Angola
