Port Elizabeth — the "Friendly City" — has a rich frontier history and deep connection to Nelson Mandela (who cast his first democratic vote here). This walking tour covers the famous Route 67 art trail (67 artworks celebrating Mandela's 67 years of public service), the historic Donkin Reserve with its pyramid and lighthouse, the Victorian St George's Park, and the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Art Museum. End with a stroll along the beautiful Summerstrand beachfront.
