Uber and Taxify

If you have a smartphone UBER  or TAXIFY  ride-hailing apps are probably the most familiar options to you. First time users can use the Uber code 6bs8f on Uber to get R50 off their first ride or MZANSIGIRL on Taxify to get R150 off their first ride.

Metered Taxis

Prices can vary so, we’d recommend you get an idea of pricing before getting in.

Mini Bus Taxis

Joburg’s most popular mode of transport for local residents are minibus taxis, but they are not easy to navigate as a tourist. Mini Bus Taxis are best used with a resident from the city.

Car Rental

On the whole  Joburg can be a maze to navigate as a newbie relying on public transport alone. Hiring a car is generally your best option if you feel confident handling the city’s roads.
