Johannesburg
Johannesburg, a vibrant city with a compelling blend of history and contemporary culture, offers a wealth of enriching experiences. The Apartheid Museum is a deeply significant place to engage with South Africa’s past and trace its path towards equality – a powerful insight into the country’s history.
Families will find plenty to discover in this city – the only question is where to begin. Gold Reef City, built on an old gold mine, combines family fun with historical tours that bring the era of the gold rush vividly to life. A particular highlight for families with an interest in history. The Nelson Mandela Centre of Memory offers inspiring insight into the life and legacy of the freedom fighter who shaped South Africa and the wider world. The Walter Sisulu National Botanical Garden offers a welcome pause from the bustle of the city. With its waterfalls and lush flora, it is ideal for relaxed walks in a natural setting and invites you to slow down and breathe deeply.
