The explanations were spot on. Very informative. Just wish the tour was longer and that the bus would slow down for us to take better pictures of some important landmarks. The driver was very friendly and courteous. When an opportunity arises I will definitely take more bus tours in other cities.

Hop on and off as many times as you’d like on this 1-day bus tour around Johannesburg, stopping at major landmarks across the city.

With buses arriving every 40 minutes, you can visit 12 iconic spots and soak up 360° panoramic views of the city from the open-top deck.
