Here are some hotspots for you to indulge in;
Fun family activities
- Star gazing – http://www.planetarium.co.za/
- For cheese, picnic and wine lovers – http://www.vangaalen.co.za/
- Rosebank Food Lovers Market – http://www.jozifoodmarket.co.za/
- Go to the Zoo. I love the zoo, it is by far one of my favourite outings, and no, you are NEVER too old.
- The Home Of The Chicken Pie. En route to Magalies is a café come restaurant. While the chicken pies are not what they use to be, the burgers are amazing. Plus the kids get to run around.
- Bruma Lake Flea Market. Why not indulge in some shopping, or just walking about.
Museums
- History lovers – http://www.apartheidmuseum.org/
- Bensusan Museum of Photography and Library – http://www.photography-now.com/institutions/I7399633.html?land=ZA
- Bernberg Museum Of Costume – http://www.places.co.za/html/bernberg.html
- The Voortrekker Monument – http://www.voortrekkermon.org.za/
- Constitution Hill – http://www.sa-venues.com/attractionsga/constitution-hill.htm
Leave the kids at home
- Beer Tour – http://www.worldofbeer.co.za/
- Gilroy’s Beer – http://www.gilroybeers.co.za/. I *heart* Gilroy’s! Good food and good beer. Even if you don’t like beer, you’ll like Gilroy’s.
Or go Meandering. The Magalies (http://www.magaliesmeander.co.za/) and Harties (http://www.hartiesmeander.co.za/) Meander respectively have loads to offer.
This covers such a small percentage of things to do in Joburg. So this weekend, whether you have children or not, go and do something different, and, when in doubt, Google.
Note: No night-life places have been included because I don’t do the club thing. The latest dance tunes will make me lose my mind and I believe there is a special place in hell for LMFAO. \m/
