Stop At: 286 Fox Street, Maboneng Precinct City & Suburban, Johannesburg 2094 South Africa
Regeneration in Johannesburg has seen the transformation of areas that, for years, were declared no-go zones as a result of urban decay and crime. The Maboneng Precinct east of the city is one of these transformed areas.

Maboneng, a Sotho word meaning “place of light”, is a fitting name for a district that has fast become a centre of creative energy for Johannesburg’s urban artists.

With a mix of restaurants, coffee shops, clothing boutiques, art galleries, and retail and studio space, the precinct draws the inner-city public as well as the chic, art-going crowd of the city’s suburbs, bringing life back to this downtown Johannesburg neighbourhood. The area also drives Johannesburg tourism within the local and international tourist markets.

Stop At: Braamfontein, Braamfontein, Greater Johannesburg, Gauteng
This neighbourhood is the city’s student heartland. If you’re looking for Joburg’s youthful and edgy party central you’ll find it here in Braamfontein (or Braam as the youngsters call it). Filled with students, fixie bike hipster cyclists, bearded baristas, street fashion rebels and young creative types, Braam’s wild nightlife is a world away from the slower pace of the northern suburbs and if you want to stay out past midnight this is the place to do it.

    First weekend experience was such a very informative tour around Joburg. Franck who was our guide is well informed about the history of the places he showed us. I'd recommend it to my friends because I had a great time.
