Soweto Minibus Tour (2 hours):

Your Soweto tour departs from the Gold Reef City bus stop in central Johannesburg. As you travel by comfortable minibus, enjoy an insightful, narrated tour of this urban area of Johannesburg, one of the city’s largest and most vibrant townships and the site of some of the most pivotal events in South Africa’s history. Listen to the commentary and have your camera ready for several photo stops along the way.

Pass FNB Stadium, which is South Africa’s largest stadium, and learn how Diep Kloof has become an integrated community over the last few decades. See Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital, built during World War II and the biggest hospital in the world in 1997. Across the road is Bara Taxi Rank, one of the largest and busiest taxi stands in Johannesburg.

Stop to stretch your legs by Orlando Towers, and then drive past Orlando Stadium, a site said to be the first sports facility that was built for black South Africans in a residential area. Hop off at Hector Pieterson Memorial to learn about the historic event here that catalyzed the Soweto Uprising in 1976.

Walk in the footsteps of South Africa's most beloved leader, Nelson Mandela, at Mandela House, where he and his family lived from 1946 to 1962. Your last stop is Kliptown Open Air Museum in Walter Sisulu Square, where some 3,000 people came together in 1955 to adopt the Freedom Charter. Your tour finishes back at Gold Reef City.

City Sightseeing Johannesburg Hop-On Hop-Off Tour (1.5-hour full-loop duration):
Your ticket includes a Johannesburg city tour by open-top, double-decker bus, which takes you to all the must-see attractions around the city center. Enjoy audio commentary available in 16 languages on the 1.5-hour loop, and hop off at any of the 12 stops to explore by foot. See the Itinerary for a list of hop-on hop-off stops.

Visit top Johannesburg attractions including Constitution Hill, Ghandi Square, the Gold Reef City Theme Park and the Carlton Centre skyscraper, with access to the ‘top of Africa’ viewing platform. Take a walk through the downtown mining district, visit the city’s many museums — including the Workers Museum and Apartheid Museum — or visit the SAB World of Beer.
