  • Name of Shop: In all main roads

    Itīs plenty of stands and street markets in all the main roads.

    What To Buy: You can buy excellent local craft. Bargaining is very common and sometimes can be tedious but on the other hand you can get very good prices and make new friends.
    Usually you have to pay in cash.
    The best market was near Harbeesport Dam, in the first village after Harbeesport coming from Pretoria, but Iīm not able to remember the name.

    There are good shops, restaurants and cafes.
    African Craft Market. is my favourite place there.

    What To Buy: You can buy Sotuhafrican music, there are lots of good bands, from african-jazz to zulu singers.
    In the African Craft Market it is easy to find hand craft from all over Africa. Cote dīIvoire, Kenya, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Malawi, Mozambique...

    Sandton City: The biggest mall in South Africa
  • Tip Rating:
  • Name of Shop: Sandton City

    You can buy all you want in Sandton. There is one big shopping mall in Sandton City. According to the Peugeot guide this is the biggest mall in Southern Africa. Natives say is the biggest one in the Southern hemisphere, I donīt think so. A supermarket is Woolworth. Parking costs you 4 Rand per hour


    What To Pay: Expensive shops there.
