Escape the bustle of Johannesburg and discover the stately elegance of Pretoria, South Africa’s administrative capital. Known affectionately as the “Jacaranda City” for its thousands of purple-blossomed trees, Pretoria is a city of grand monuments, wide boulevards, and deep political significance. On this private tour, you will journey from the rugged history of the Boer pioneers to the modern heartbeat of the democratic state. With your own private vehicle and expert guide, you’ll enjoy a dignified and insightful look at the architecture and power that shaped a nation.

What To Expect (The Itinerary)

• Voortrekker Monument: Our first stop is this massive granite monolith, a tribute to the early Boer pioneers (Voortrekkers). Inside, you’ll marvel at one of the world’s longest historical marble friezes. The view from the top of the monument offers a breathtaking 360-degree panorama of the entire city.
• The Union Buildings: Visit the official seat of the South African Government and the offices of the President. This architectural masterpiece, designed by Sir Herbert Baker, is famous for its semicircular shape and stunning terraced gardens. It is here that Nelson Mandela was inaugurated as the first democratic president in 1994.
• The Mandela Statue: Stand at the feet of the towering 9-meter bronze statue of Nelson Mandela at the Union Buildings—the most iconic photo opportunity in the capital.
• Church Square: Experience the historic heart of Pretoria. Surrounded by 19th-century buildings like the Palace of Justice (where the Rivonia Trial took place) and the Old Capitol Theatre, this square is dominated by the statue of the Boer leader, Paul Kruger.
• Paul Kruger House Museum: Step back in time as you enter the former residence of the President of the South African Republic. The house remains preserved with original furnishings, giving you an intimate look at the life of the man who led the Boer resistance.
• The Jacaranda Avenues: Depending on the season (late September to November), your private drive will take you through streets transformed into purple tunnels by the city’s world-famous Jacaranda trees.
