Experience the vibrancy of the city of gold

5 places to explore in Joburg. 

 

 

 

 


With so many things to do in Johannesburg it is hard to find a unique and interesting activity to do. This will soon change as I have compiled a list of amazing activities one can participate in and around Johannesburg.

Enjoy the beautiful and richness of Johannesburg on the red bus.


  • Go on a journey to experience one of the highest points in Africa on top of the Carlton Center.
  • Take an informative tour of the Apartheid Museum
  • Enjoy a cold beer at the SAB World of Beer in Newtown and also learn how beer has been made throughout these years
  • Visit the constitutional Hill in Johannesburg

There are combo offers which offer a city tour and a tour of Soweto.                                     


Spend some time with the beautiful birds at the Montecasino Bird Garden
Enjoy a walk around the garden, surrounded by the tranquil scenery with the chirping of the birds in the background. The garden is home to more than 500 species of birds. This hidden gem is definitely worthy to be explored. So take a short left and enjoy the experience.


Grab a picnic basket, hiking shoes and head on out to the Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens

A beautiful venue for various activities such as weddings, concerts as well as picnics on Saturday afternoons.  Take walks and hikes on the mountains and enjoy the calming sounds of the waterfall at the cost of R45.



Indulge on a cocktail or two at the Living Room in Maboneng

Take a seat at one of Johannesburg trendiest spots, while you marvel at the beautiful jozi skyline. It is a perfect place to experience and enjoy with family and friends. The well thought out Menu and venue will keep you coming back for more.



Take a giant leap at the Soweto towers

If you consider yourself an adrenalin junkie then this is the most appropriate activity for you. In the heart of Orlando in Soweto two towers are waiting for you to jump off them and enjoy the rush.  However there are many more activities that can be explored besides bungee jumping such as, paintballing, and climbing. There is also a restaurant for you to enjoy the local cuisine after the fun has been had.

 
You will never be bored again after visiting these places as they have a lot of activities that will keep you coming back. For more information on the above activities please visit their websites.

Thursday All Access- In Conversation with Connie Zitha

  Meet Connie Zitha who has mastered the art of plaiting, and hair magic. While her 7year old peers were running the streets, she was getting lessons on how to plait hair by her mom. This didn't sit well with her in fact it came as an irritation, but little did she know that the plaiting lessons would build her an empire.  I had a chance to sit down and get to know her business a bit better.  At the age of 13 years she started taking plaiting seriously, even got encouragement from clients to start her own business. She took this into consideration after she matriculated, although her plans were to study either psychology, teaching or nursing. But as you know life has a way of redirecting us at times. That's exactly what happened to Connie. In 2011 she opened her salon and as they say the rest is history.  In a competitive industry like hair you need to be able to stand out, and she has definitely found the for formula ''the way I start when plaiting ensures th

Thursday #Throwback- Baddest villians of all time

Image
Watching soap operas  as families played a role in our childhoods, the villain's brought even more spice to the scenes. That is why I have compiled a list of  villains that will always be in our memories. #1 Laqasha from Sgudis Snaysi He wasn't a villain per say, but he sure did give us a scare when he came around with his stick ready to break Sdumo's knees. As a child I told myself that I would never want to run into Laqasha in a dark alley.       #2 Stefano DiMera from days of our lives     This man has to be the baddest villain I've watched on television. He taunted people, even from beyond the grave. His obsession with Marlena was the most scariest thing to watch. He terrified  me for years even now I still get nightmares.            #3 David Genaro from Rhythm City     This character will definitely go down in history as one of the baddest villains we've ever witnessed.  His ability to control any situation to suit
