Our Ultimate Johannesburg Bucket List

Go To The Top Of Ponte City Admit it: you've wanted to watch the sun set over the City of Gold from the top of Ponte tower since you first laid eyes on it. This is much easier and much more rewarding than you would think. If you've not heard of them before, take a walking tour through Hillbrow and surrounding areas with inner city tour guides Dlala Nje – the tour kicks off from the 52nd floor of the high rise building.

Watch The Lions Win At Emirates Airline Park We all know it as Ellis Park; regardless, the notorious venue that went down in our nation's history by hosting the 1995 World Cup Final between South Africa and New Zealand beckons your call. Some say the grass grown on this field can be used to make dreams come true. If you have not seen the Lions roar during a rugby match here then you can't quite call yourself a local just yet. Even if you don't like sports, an outing to the stadium will have you tear up with joy knowing that patriotism is alive and well in Jozi. Click here for more information. Bungee Jumping In Orlando You’re afraid of heights – we all are – but sometimes it’s good therapy to overcome certain fears. Why not beat the fear by bungee jumping between two decommissioned energy silos in Orlando? It’s safe, it’s fun and you learn so much about yourself once you let go and take that leap of faith.

Now you can take to the tarmac and race a performance built bullet around Kyalami Race Track. Feel the velocity as you drift around corners and reach speeds you’ve only dreamed of up until now. Who knows? Maybe you will quit your office job and do this full time, thanks to Fantastic Racing. Click here for more information. By Shawn Greyling
