Alternatively, discover the rich history, bustling markets, and vibrant arts scene of South Africa’s largest city with Johannesburg City Breaks.
History buffs can explore the rich cultural tapestry of South Africa with cultural heritage tours and visits to traditional villages. We also highly recommend joining a Robben Island historical tour to visit the former prison where Nelson Mandela was held and learn about South Africa’s struggle for freedom.
