Johannesburg for 10 days

Hey All,

i am J'burg for about 10 days with work but have a few days off here and there....

I am calling to the mass of knowledge for a few things to do for the time that i am here.

I have been to Soweto and the museums there which were incredible... I would like to go back again if somebody has some alternative ideas!! there is something alive and energetic about Soweto

So has anybody any other ideas...

i was looking at heading to Pilensburg national park for a day on saturday... is it easy to get there or would i have to take a tour :-(

Any suggestions would be appreciated

cheers

I have posted this list too often to repeat it again, so I will simply point you to this thread where you will find a list of things to do in and around Johanneburg and Pretoria.
It is about a 2- hour drive to get to Pilanesberg. There is a bus that runs to Sun City from Johannesburg, but it won't take you through Pilanesberg. Hire a car and no problem. Easy to get there.
Enjoy your stay here in Joeys.

Just one more idea:
The cradle of mankind! A short way beyond Mulderdrift, northwest of Jo'burg (and on the way to Pilanesburg). Go and see where Raymond Dart and Dr. Broome started formulating that humankind originated in Africa by excavating Mrs. Ples over fifty years ago! A walk through the caves is interesting - that they were inhabited by your great, great - - - - - - - - - - grandmother makes them unforgettable!
