LocalPlaces is renowned for its exceptional storytelling experiences which are not merely tours. In Johannesburg, Charlie Moyo personally guides you, while narrating the city's astonishing history along the way. We recommend this tour as a first introduction to the city, since it provides the best insight into the history and contemporary culture of the city.
Starting off with a storytelling on the opening history of the city, we explore the ‘Wiser West’, the oldest district of Joburg inner-city. Marvel at the architecture and stories of the gold rush, the plush Edwardian era (early 1900s) and all the way to the diverse and energetic current-day Joburg. Admire the Shadow Boxer sculpture where Mandela & Tambo once had offices. Be astonished by the square where Gandhi once worked as a lawyer in the court. This tour tells the full story of Joburg – from pre-gold rush days to its ‘glory days’, spectacular urban decline and current-day city regeneration. You will leave astonished!
