Nelson Mandela chose these serene surroundings for editing his bestselling autobiography, A Long Walk to Freedom.

Main Street Walks (MSW) is a concept that encourages people to rediscover the inner City and ultimately, the buzz of Johannesburg. The best way to connect with the city nucleus, like any other in the world, is by foot and by means of public transport. Have the imagination to go beyond conventional tourist packages: our guided tours, which start westwards from Arts on Main, navigate the city with the Rea Vaya Bus Rapid Transport (BRT) system. Like all people who are passionate about the city, MSW knows that there are endless possibilities for authentically grasping the CBD’s magic.
