Have fun at the Honeydew Mazes
Honeydew Mazes is a giant outdoor maze experience promising a whole lot of fun for the whole family. In groups, you will have to find the five secret gardens and answer the general knowledge quiz. The Maze takes about 90 minutes to complete. However, there are other smaller mazes and puzzles in the courtyard which will keep you entertained.
Drive through the Nelson Mandela Bridge
The Nelson Mandela Bridge is the largest cable-stayed bridge in South Africa . The bridge starts at the end of Jan Smuts avenue and links to Constitutional Hill precinct in Braamfontein, to the Cultural precinct in Newtown in the heart of the city’s inner city renewal project. The bridge is incredibly appealing in its simplicity. However, at night the entire bridge lights up.
