To make the most of your adventure trip in Johannesburg, it's recommended to rent a car or hire a private driver. Johannesburg's public transportation is not reliable, and taxis can be expensive. Car rentals start from 350 ZAR per day, and private drivers start from 1500 ZAR per day. Expect traffic during rush hours that can add an extra 30 minutes to an hour to your travel time.
If you have more time, consider visiting other adventure places like Hennops Hiking Trail, Hartbeespoort Dam, and Gold Reef City. You can also do a wildlife safari in Pilanesberg National Park. If you have less time, consider scaling down to three places by removing the caves. Also, consider caution to avoid danger in the selected adventure spots, always follow your guide's instructions, and bring suitable attire, sunscreen, and a camera.
