Gold Rush-Inspired Theme Park in Jo’burg

Step back in time with a fun day at an adventure park brimming with history-themed games, thrill rides, a casino and more.

About Your Trip

Expect plenty of action and entertainment in Johannesburg with a full day of fun at Gold Reef City theme park. Designed to look like the real thing from the 19th century — complete with historical attractions depicting days gone by — this amusement park lets you relive the grandeur of a mining town back when gold was discovered in the city.

Activities for all ages and energy levels here are sure to keep everyone amused. If you’re a thrill-seeker, strike it rich with the adrenaline-pumping Anaconda roller coaster and its inverted track and back-to-back corkscrew turns. Hold onto your hats at Tower of Terror that drops 90 degrees into a mine shaft. Not afraid of getting a little wet? Then, stake your claim and ride down Raging River Rapids.

How about indulging your senses at the fully immersive 4-D movie theater or with a gold-panning experience? For a different perspective, the Giant Wheel offers a picture-perfect, bird’s-eye view of the surrounding area. When you’re finished at the theme park, hop on the complimentary shuttle bus to the Gold Reef City Casino where you may find your fortune at one of the tables!

What we love:
• What makes this venue even more interesting is that it’s set around an old mine shaft, Shaft No. 14, in operation from 1890s to 1970s.
• Adjacent to the theme park, Apartheid Museum guides visitors through this important period of South African history.
• For a change of pace, head to Sandton City shopping center, only 1 mile (1.6 kilometers) from your hotel.
