The quests you receive in Durotar are a good cross section of the life of an orc. Loyalty to tribe and culture are very important. Finding the remains of a young boy, clearing out vicious monsters from the surrounding area, and supporting the needs of the tribe through gathering materials are all examples of the quest types available in Durotar. Aside from the quests for the Orcish peoples, the village of Troll tribesmen in the far southern part of the map also have quests to give. These quests tie you into the connections between the trolls and the orcs and give you a slice of what they deal with. Some of the best quests in Durotar are given out by trolls. My personal favorites have you traveling off the coast to a series of southerly islands, the Echo Isles. There you confront a wild troll witch doctor and his magicked servants. A very satisfying orcish quest has you taking on some of the remnants of Admiral Proudmoore's fleet. In storming the small keep near the orcish lands you defeat a military officer and his entourage. In killing the officer I found a key, which when taken to a small room near the top of the keep yielded a military briefing. The briefing leads you to a conversation with one of the Warchief Thrall's advisors, and some excellent quests.
