Top 10 Fun Activities & Games in Johannesburg, Gauteng

November 28, 2021 Nobuko Falco

Johannesburg is the place to go to mix big-city culture, shopping, dining and nightlife with outdoor adventures, up-close wildlife encounters and visits to historical sites. Explore caves and nature reserves, or visit a traditional village by day, then enjoy dinner at a hip cafe or five-star restaurant. And if you're a shopper, bring an extra, empty suitcase. With malls, open-air markets and places that blend the two, you'll find plenty of unique souvenirs.

The Bioscope Independent Cinema, Johannesburg

Reviewed By JaxTracks - Johannesburg, South Africa

I'm at this trendy cinema a few times every month. It screens interesting, sometimes controversial, relevant and sometimes just fun films and riveting documentaries. Expect something different... the seats are car seats (some with headrests), very comfortable. Tip: third row from front is best. You can order food & if it's not ready before the show they'll bring it in for you. Think pizzas, popcorn, snacks. Don't miss Noodlebox Cinema where you pre-order your noodles (really good!) and watch an Asian film. This is my go to theatre, albeit a small intimate one, for classic movies, the Oscar nominated shorts /animation or old black & white movies with a Fb accompanying pianist - brilliant - and its set in the vibey Maboneng district in downtown Joburg.

Bungee jumping has been on the bucket list for sometime and so getting the opportunity to do it was really awesome. The staff were very professional and reassuring. I wasn’t scared at all, they were patient throughout the process. They gave us all the instructions and the jump was just amazing! The feeling can’t be described. The video came out great. 10/10 recommend them. Kudos team
