THE TRIP
Joburg in six days. All of it.
Johannesburg is not one city β it is many cities layered on top of each other. Sandton, the financial capital of Africa, gleaming and world-class. Soweto, one of the most historically important neighbourhoods on the continent. Sun City, the resort that redefined African entertainment. Gold Reef City, where the gold rush that built this city still lives. Monte Casino, where the night doesn't end. And the Mall of Africa, because Joburg doesn't stop for anything.
We're based at the Hyatt House Sandton β a sleek, apartment-style 4-star hotel in the leafy heart of Sandton, five minutes from Sandton City Mall and the Gautrain. Spacious suites with kitchenettes, free breakfast every morning, an outdoor pool, a treehouse deck for evening drinks, and some of the warmest hotel service in Joburg. Five nights, six days, one city.
Β
Six tours. Six days. The full Johannesburg experience. π

WHAT YOU'LL DO
Six experiences. Six sides of Joburg.
πΒ Full Day Johannesburg Hop On Hop Off Tour
The best introduction to Joburg β jump on and off at the Apartheid Museum (a world-class institution, not to be skipped), Constitution Hill, Newtown, Maboneng, and other key stops at your own pace. The city reveals itself stop by stop.
ποΈΒ Full Day Soweto, Gold Reef City & Johannesburg Tour
Soweto is not just a township β it is the heartbeat of modern South Africa. Vilakazi Street, the Hector Pieterson Memorial, the history of the struggle that changed a nation. Then Gold Reef City: the theme park and casino built on the very gold mine that created Johannesburg. Two completely different Joburgs in one day.
π΄Β Full Day Sun City
Two hours from Joburg, Sun City is a destination in itself β the Valley of Waves, the Palace of the Lost City, entertainment venues, restaurants, and a grandeur that has to be seen to be believed. A full day that feels like a separate trip.
ποΈΒ Shopping at Mall of Africa
One of South Africa's largest malls β over 300 stores, a full day's worth of dining, fashion, and entertainment. The place to find South African brands, international names, and everything in between.
πΒ Afternoon & Evening at Monte Casino
Joburg's most distinctive entertainment complex, built to look like a Tuscan village complete with a painted sky ceiling. Restaurants, bars, a casino, a theatre, and an atmosphere that is uniquely South African. The perfect Sunday evening.
πΒ Johannesburg Nightlife
Joburg after dark is its own experience β from the strip around Fourways and Sandton to Melville, Rosebank, and Maboneng. Your Travel Designer will guide you to the right spots for the group.
