Gilda, owner of Eenblond Tours, was born in Johannesburg, and the city has been her home for more than 20 years as an adult. She has a mad passion and love for this vibrant place, and knows all the great, good, interesting, weird and crazy spots. This is NOT your typical bus tour as offered by so many companies. Instead of taking guests to museums (The Apartheid Museum does not need a guide), she prefers to show you the many faces of the city - taking in the history, art, culture, but also just daily life in the vastly diverse areas.. And no tour in Jozi is done without sampling it's excellent cuisine. Tours are always flexible to try and match our guest's personalities. 100% safe, come see why we love our city so much!

A Great Tour with a Fantastic Guide
This is absolutely the best tour if you want to learn about the history of Johannesburg and want to see all of the hidden gems in the city. Gilda is terrific, and her knowledge of all things Johannesburg (and based on the fact that she grew up here) helped to provide excellent commentary on her tour. Look no further than this tour if you're looking to discover this amazing city. Gilda will not disappoint!

Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local!: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Pretoria.
How much does Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local! cost?
+
Prices start at $99 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Pretoria usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local! take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Pretoria is not rushed.
Is Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local! worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Pretoria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local!?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local! suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local!?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Pretoria can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Pretoria and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local! start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Pretoria within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Pretoria?
+
On Outty we rank every Pretoria experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Soweto Cultural Walking Tour with Lunch, Guided Bicycle Tour of Soweto with Lunch, Johannesburg and Soweto tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Pretoria?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Pretoria?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local!?
+
Included: Bottled water; All Fees and Taxes; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local! include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 30 listed pickup locations in and around Pretoria. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time.
What languages is Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local! offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local!?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Best of Joburg Full Day Tour with a born local! wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
