Gold Reef City and Apartheid Museum Tour

Gold Reef City & Apartheid Museum

Descend into a glod mine at Gold Reef City and acquaint yourself with Africa’s past


Overview
Enjoy a visit to Johannesburg’s favourite theme park, Gold Reef City, that brims with activities and experiences. Also, visit the Apartheid Museum which brings alive the dark days of Africa’s racial discrimination.

Gold Reef City is a fun place for the entire family and has some exciting thrill rides, casinos and restaurants. See an incredible reconstruction of an old mining town complete with a train station and stores from a bygone era. Without doubt, the most interesting part of Gold Reef City is the gold mine trip into the belly of earth (220 meters down) to witness demonstrations on how gold was mined during the day.

Relive the sad tale of racial oppression uniquely captured within the walls of the Apartheid Museum. See full-blown photographs, metal cages and audio visual displays of apartheid scenes set in a room with double volume ceiling, concrete and red brick walls and grey concrete floor.

Loads of fun at the Gold Reef City theme park and a revealing journey back to the apartheid era make this tour truly memorable.
