Johannesburg & Beyond Holidays


africa
Johannesburg and Beyond holidays showcase a region steeped in history and culture. With excellent domestic and international air links through O.R. Tambo International Airport, the region serves as an ideal gateway to South Africa’s diverse travel experiences.

Johannesburg is a city of contrasts, where fascinating museums and diverse cultural experiences blend with upmarket shops and restaurants in Sandton, Rosebank and Melrose Arch. For a deeper dive into the city’s past, head to the Apartheid Museum and Soweto, or explore key attractions such as Constitution Hill and the regenerated Maboneng Precinct.

Pretoria, South Africa’s administrative capital and political heart, is also the starting point for the iconic Rovos Rail. Discover this charming city as you stroll through leafy suburbs, admire historic architecture and visit notable landmarks such as Freedom Park and the Union Buildings, home to the impressive Nelson Mandela Statue.

Trailfinders offers a wide range of Johannesburg and Beyond holidays and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to explore South Africa on a fly drive holiday, aboard the iconic luxury Rovos Rail, a sociable guided group tour, or are looking for advice on how to combine South Africa with a beach destination – they are the perfect people to ask.
