The following battle sites are within a half hours drive of Dundee:

- Isandlwana (The defeat of the British at the hands of the Zulus)
- Rorkes Drift (Most VCs awarded at a single battle)
- Blood River (Between Boer and Zulu, lead to the Day of the Covenant)
- Siege of Ladysmith
- The armoured train
- Winston Churchills capture
- The death of the French Prince Imperial
- Hlobane Mountain

Dundee also boasts an excellent historical museum, as does Rorkes Drift.

The town has a picturesque 18-hole golf course and offers squash, tennis, bowls and fishing. For the more adventurous the nearby Buffalo River offers white water rafting and canoeing.

There is also a 4x4 trail for the off road enthusiasts.
