African Timeout will speed you away for a half day with a quick overview of Johannesburg and Soweto, giving our guests a taste of the cosmopolitan structure and very diverse history of our city, "Jozi".
This tour takes you through the heart of Johannesburg on a fact-finding tour of this unique city with a relatively short history. Established only in 1886, because of the largest gold discovery ever made in the world, Johannesburg tells a story of wealth and poverty, and of people from all walks of life coming to find riches.
Johannesburg is now a provincial capital and hosts the highest court in the land. Passing Constitution Hill, with the Fort, the Women's Jail and the notorious Number 4, we appreciate the new-found South Africa after seeing the new court building with its theme "Justice under a tree".
Soweto, a city within a city, is one of the most famous settlements in Africa, where South Africa's history was written on the streets, in the schools and in the shebeens. We drive through Soweto and visit the Mandela House museum.
