Why this trip
Gold rush, resistance, creative scene: Johannesburg tells South Africa's story more loudly than any other city. For women who do not see the country only as a safari destination, the metropolis is a place for exchange about politics, art and everyday life, best with a local guide. The Walter Sisulu National Botanical Garden offers paths through native plants and birdwatching on the edge of the city, and The Wilds Nature Reserve has walking paths with artworks and a view of the skyline. The Sterkfontein Caves are linked to the find of a three-million-year-old skeleton of Australopithecus, an excursion into human history.
For many, Johannesburg is also the gateway to Sabi Sand and Kruger National Park. If you want to go on safari afterwards, plan arrivals and transfers best with fixed times. From May to September it is dry, the days are mild and the nights are cold. Hotels such as the Saxon Hotel, Villas & Spa or The Houghton Hotel are in the data.
You discuss the planning with Swiss Vibes on the video call, so that you feel well looked after on arrival.
