Combo Tour — Apartheid Museum & Gold Reef City
Two iconic Johannesburg sites in one day: a guided Apartheid Museum tour covering 1948–1994, paired with the “Jozi's Story of Gold” heritage experience at Gold Reef City. You can combine the Apartheid Museum with an educational trip or a fun day trip to Gold Reef City.
About this tour
This Apartheid Museum and Gold Reef City combo school tour packs two of Johannesburg's most important heritage sites into one powerful CAPS-aligned History day for Grade 4–12 learners. It is one of the most requested combined excursions in Gauteng.
The morning is spent at the Apartheid Museum, walking through the 1948–1994 timeline of segregation, resistance and democracy with a registered guide. The afternoon shifts to Gold Reef City for the “Jozi's Story of Gold” heritage experience — a 75-metre underground mine descent and the social history of the Witwatersrand gold rush that shaped modern South Africa.
Wilrien School Tours handles the full educational excursion package: bus transport (if required) from your school, both entries, professional guiding and teacher support — making it one of the most popular combined History school tours in Gauteng.
