Joburg, or Jozi as some prefer to call it, is South Africa’s biggest city and began as a 19th-century gold-mining settlement, adopting the name City of Gold.
Situated in an opulent and tree-lined suburb, we recommend spending two nights in an enchanting Hotel boasting a uniquely perfect blend of rich cultural history and contemporary five-star service; an experience as unique and diverse as the city itself.
A full day excursion covers the burgeoning art scene in Johannesburg as well as a visit to the lesser-known Township, with a focus on art and community upliftment.

GUEST FEEDBACK:
Everything went perfectly! It was truly a dream come true for me and I loved every single minute of our time in South Africa. The hotels, drivers, tours, and flights were seamless and it was so nice to not worry about the details. Our last night at the Saxon was truly extraordinary. I’m not sure if you pulled some strings to get us such amazing rooms but it was an incredible way to spend our last night in South Africa. It was unforgettable! Truly a YPO experience. We had been dreaming of this trip for roughly 10 years, and despite those lofty expectations, I’m happy to say that your company and the country itself totally lived up to them. We have incredible memories that will last my parents, my kids and myself a lifetime. Thank you!

We had an unbelievably special time, from the care and attention of our incredible attendant at Singita to the city experiences in Joburg and Cape Town. We loved the flexibility given to us by you, and also by our guides and drivers as we were able to really tailor-make our trip, but also utilize your recommendations. The level of sophistication and knowledge present in both cities and in all people in those roles were utterly surprising and very much welcomed.
