City Sightseeing, the world renowned and trusted brand that operates the iconic red double decker open-topped buses in over 100 cities across the globe has an active and successful presence in the South African cities of Cape Town and Johannesburg, as well as in the vibrant township of Soweto.
As with all City Sightseeing tours, the Cape Town and Johannesburg tours operate on the hugely popular hop-on, hop-off basis, which allows sight seers the chance to get off the bus at any of the stops along the route and then get back on to a later bus at their leisure – guaranteeing frequent, safe and reliable transport that is affordable and fun. Buses also have an informative onboard commentary, which explains all the sites, and which is available in 16 different languages, including a fun kids channel.
Gautrain connecting Joburg visitors to City Sightseeing
It is highly recommended that you connect to City Sightseeing by using the world class Gautrain. The Gautrain has stations from OR Tambo International Airport, right through to Sandton and Park Sation that will quickly and safely deliver travellers to the Gautrain Park Station where you can then board the City Sightseeing bus (Bus Stop 1) for the Red City Tour.
“The City Sightseeing Red City Tour and the Soweto Tour extension are the ideal way for visitors to explore and experience the best of Johannesburg, as well as some of the most culturally and historically rich sites in the township of Soweto,” says Claus Tworeck, CEO of City Sightseeing South Africa. “We have provided a safe, efficient, world class tour with an informative commentary that tells the colourful story behind the sights. I can guarantee that international visitors to the City of Gold will be astounded at the richness and vibrancy of this cosmopolitan city as showcased, in all its honesty, by the City Sightseeing bus.”
