Zoo Lake Boat Ride
There's a very good reason why Joburgers flood Zoo Lake over weekends. It's picturesque, tranquil and brilliant. Sneak away from the crowd by renting a boat and rowing to the middle of the lake with your sweetheart in hand. The boats are pretty stable so getting down on one knee won't be a problem. The ride is also fairly cheap and costs about R10.
