Overview

This flexible hop-on hop-off bus tour is the easiest way to explore Johannesburg’s top landmarks — with 16 stops covering everything from Constitution Hill and the Apartheid Museum to Gold Reef City and Mandela Bridge. Enjoy onboard audio commentary in 12 languages, and the freedom to explore the city at your own pace.

What truly sets this tour apart is the free hotel shuttle from major Sandton hotels to the main starting point — making it effortless to join the tour without worrying about transport. Travellers can also upgrade to a live-guided Soweto tour, led by a local expert who brings South Africa’s complex and powerful storey to life.

It’s the perfect combination of convenience, independent exploration and authentic cultural insight — all in one ticket.
