OUTDOORS
Despite being one of Africa's largest cities, Joburg is the world's largest man-made forest. The hotel is set amongst these big old trees and an indigenous garden. We have a swimming pool for cooling off in and lazy loungers and hammocks for sitting in the garden and contemplating life.
EXPLORING
Joburg has some sites worth seeing as well restaurants, movie theatres and shopping which is all within easy access - Melrose Arch, Rosebank and Illovo.
We can arrange tours to: The Apartheid Museum, an architectural masterpiece which attempts to give a balanced account of 20th Century South Africa; Constitution Hill, the new home of the Constitutional Court and a prison where Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi were incarcerated. Joburg has some excellent galleries including MOMA, Everard Read and the Johannesburg Art Gallery. You can also take a township tour of Soweto. |
