About this activity

Discover the heart of Joburg’s most vibrant Muslim neighbourhood on this immersive and highly popular walking tour with a born Joburger. Rich in history, Fordsburg is also the first suburb of Johannesburg.

Fordsburg is a photographer’s paradise—alive with colour, aromas, and a tapestry of cultures. As we explore its streets, you’ll taste your way through a curated selection of Indian, Bangladeshi, Syrian, African, Turkish, Jordanian and Pakistani street-food stalls. From sizzling grills to fragrant snacks and sweet treats, this is a come-hungry kind of tour. Along the way, you’ll meet local traders, hear the neighbourhood’s rich stories, uncover hidden gems, and enjoy plenty of opportunities to shop. The experience is suitable for vegetarians and guests who prefer mild flavours. (Please note: the tour is not suitable for vegans or those who are lactose intolerant.)

Kindly note that South Africa has a very tolerant culture - all religions are very welcome here
