Additional Information

Nestled between Yeoville and Kensington, The Valley holds a prime position as one of Johannesburg’s earliest neighborhoods. It harbors a captivating narrative about Johannesburg’s early exploration days. Due to the constant gentrification in Johannesburg, a fascinating scheme has been implemented in the valley to shield it from such transformation.

This tour guides you amid the various stakeholders nestled in this region, ranging from established corporations to budding start-ups, including some of South Africa’s top artists.

We will particularly spotlight the artists and artworks nestled in this part of Johannesburg, guiding you through locales showcasing diverse artists and art forms. As part of this experience, you will not only behold art but also engage in dialogues with the artists behind these mesmerizing creations.

Join us for gallery hopping adventures where you will personally meet artists and their creations, offering a chance to interact intimately with the creative minds.

Journey through Johannesburg from the perspective of an artist.

Great art, great tour! - There are so many talented artists both trained and untrained in South Africa! I especially loved the art gallery in the Ellis park arena. We learned about each artist and the emotions they wanted to show in their art work. In Victoria Yards, we also visited a distillery with the most tasteful gin you can find, using oranges only grown and found in this specific part of South Africa.

This tour is a gem… - This tour takes you to hidden gems of Joburg. Learn about Joburg life and art with BK. BK grew up and lives in the area. This makes the tour deeper and more personal. The gallery you get taken to has the most amazing artwork by amazing local artists.
