The Johannesburg City Centre is a dense central highly urbanised area of the greater Johannesburg region. An area rich in history, diversity, architecture, society, arts and culture. This is where Johannesburg was born - where the world's largest gold deposits were found, and the politics of apartheid started and ended.
This tour can be customised and consists of a combination of walk and drive through in the most important historical, cultural, architectural and business sites - See some of Africa's tallest buildings, have lunch in a trendy city cafe, soak in the hustle and bustle of African city life, reflect on the most historically significant political and economic sites in South Africa... all in a few hours! Only in the Johannesburg City Centre!
Tour includes - Newtown; The Financial District (Marshalltown); A Mining History Walk; Arts and Culture Walk; Constitution Hill, Ghandi Square, Hill brow; Carlton Centre. |
