It would be helpful to know that the traffic is quite an irritation and when travelling, time delays should be taken into consideration. The weather is usually warm and there is little rain in the winter. Remain friendly when approaching police officers and government officials, at home affair institutions as this could aid in avoiding conflict.

Johannesburg is the epitome of the hustle and bustle of city life; where the streets are always rampaged with people looking to make a quick buck. It is no wonder there is always a congestion of traffic, with taxis hooting from the side of the road, looking to squeeze between the side barricade and your car.

Johannesburg is not the happy place people expect it to be. It is dangerous and sometimes there are ongoing riots in the area. It has been said that Johannesburg has a lot of tourist attractions and is a place where a lot of filming takes place. Filming to shows such as Isidingo and more.

Be cautious when traveling, especially at night. Be aware of your surroundings, and try to travel in a group. However, people are very friendly and likely to help! You can strike up a conversation with a stranger in the grocery store and walk out with a new friend. There are great places to visit, such as the Apartheid Museum, Voortrekker Monument, Market on Fox Street, and much more! ‘Egoli’ is the city of gold, and it’s what you make of it!
