Gold Reef City is a gold mining-themed amusement park in Johannesburg, South Africa, open Friday through Sunday from 9:30am to 5pm, plus public holidays and midweek during school holidays, according to the park’s official site. It sits on the site of a former working gold mine on the city’s southern edge.
The park features more than 30 roller coasters and thrill rides alongside a recreated 1880s mining town, an underground gold mine tour, and a 4D theater. Most visitors spend four to six hours here to work through the main rides and attractions.
Tickets must be purchased online rather than at the gate. The park recently reopened its Anaconda roller coaster after a multimillion-rand refurbishment, so ride availability is worth checking on the official site before a visit.
