🌟 Pretoria Walking Adventure – 2 May! 🌟
Start: 09:00 | Duration: ±4 hours | Safe parking at Melrose House
Join us on a unforgettable walking experience in Pretoria! We delve into the Hidden History and little known facts!
🏠 Melrose House
Explore the life and legacy of one of Pretoria's leading business men - George Heys and his family. This is also the location where the peace treaty that ended the South African war was signed.
🏛️ Church Square
A short walk brings us to the beating heart of historic Pretoria. Discover the mystery of the Kruger Millions, and step inside the majestic Ou Raadsaal, completed in 1889 as the seat of the ZAR government. Entry included!
🧱 Tudor Chambers
Marvel at the striking red-brick façade and learn its hidden stories.
☕ Mugg & Bean Stop
A quick refresh before we continue our adventure.
We stroll back up to Melrose House via all of the arcades (for some shade) and through Burgers Park - exploring the life of the ZAR's most infamous Presidents - Thomas Burgers.
✨ This immersive 4-hour walking tour traces the city’s rich tapestry, from colonial ambitions to modern shifts. With Janet’s captivating storytelling, every stop becomes a window into the past — not just a photo op.
