City breaks to Johannesburg
South Africa is attracting increased attention as a travel destination and its capital city is no exception. Johannesburg, also known as Jozi, is a city where many travellers enter the country and stop off before continuing on to popular destinations such as Cape Town or the Kruger National Park. But Johannesburg offers its own special attractions and style. Founded in 1886, Johannesburg is a relatively new city but is growing rapidly. It has some of South Africa’s tallest buildings but city breaks to Johannesburg will also include seeing many lovely gardens and parks. It is actually one of the world’s greenest cities.

You’ll find a wide selection of great shopping with high-end shopping malls as well as great flea markets. Once you experience Jozi’s vibrant energy, you will certainly be drawn back.
