Destination & City Travel Guide
About Johannesburg
Johannesburg needs a plan built around districts rather than a single walking centre. Constitution Hill and the Apartheid Museum tell different parts of South Africa’s twentieth-century story. Rosebank and Sandton provide hotels, restaurants and rail stops, while Soweto requires a dedicated outing. Travellers from India often connect through OR Tambo to other African destinations, but even a brief stay can include one museum and a neighbourhood visit. Road distances and traffic make a booked transfer useful outside the Gautrain corridor.

Tips for travellers from India
Sandton is convenient for a Gautrain arrival and business in that district, while Rosebank provides another rail-linked hotel base. A stay elsewhere may need a car after the station, so compare the complete airport-to-hotel route. OR Tambo’s Gautrain connection does not put every Johannesburg attraction within walking distance; Soweto and the Apartheid Museum still need their own transport arrangements.
Constitution Hill and the Apartheid Museum explain different parts of the country’s past and should be given separate visits. Pairing either with a nearby district is more practical than adding a succession of distant stops. Soweto deserves a dedicated outing with a clear pickup and return point rather than a brief detour between the airport and a Sandton meeting. The airport’s Terminal A is associated with international departures, while Terminal B handles domestic services within the connected complex. Follow the domestic-flight signs if continuing within South Africa after completing arrival formalities. A hotel near the airport can suit an early onward flight, but it is a different choice from a base for central museums. For a short city visit, select one museum and one neighbourhood around the available road time. Rosebank or Sandton rail access can simplify arrival while still leaving the sightseeing transfers to be planned individually.
Best time to visit Johannesburg
April to May or September to October, about 10–25°C, for mild days.

Johannesburg airport information
OR Tambo International Airport (JNB). OR Tambo’s Terminal A handles international departures, while Terminal B serves domestic operations. The terminals form a connected complex, but an international-to-domestic connection still involves the relevant arrival and departure procedures.
About Mumbai
Mumbai handles a large share of India's banking, insurance, shipping and entertainment work, and its offices from Nariman Point to Bandra Kurla Complex set the pace for much of the western Indian economy. Two UNESCO World Heritage properties sit within the city: the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus and the Victorian Gothic and Art Deco ensemble around the Oval Maidan. A third, the Elephanta Caves, lies across the harbour. Visitors also come for Marine Drive, the museums of Kala Ghoda and street food at Girgaum Chowpatty.

What's new in Mumbai
- June 2025: The final 76 km of the Samruddhi Mahamarg between Igatpuri and Amane near Thane opened on 5 June 2025, completing the 701 km expressway to Nagpur and bypassing the Kasara Ghat.
- October 2025: The Aqua Line (Metro Line 3) opened its last section to Cuffe Parade to passengers on 9 October 2025. The fully underground line now runs from Aarey through both airport terminals, Bandra Kurla Complex, Worli and Churchgate to the southern tip of the city.
- December 2025: Navi Mumbai International Airport began commercial flights on 25 December 2025, with IndiGo, Akasa Air, Air India Express and Star Air among the first airlines. For travellers bound for Navi Mumbai, Panvel or the Pune road it can be closer than the Santacruz airport.
Tips for travellers
Colaba and Fort put you within walking distance of the Gateway of India, the Kala Ghoda galleries and the Oval Maidan; Bandra and Andheri are more practical when a trip is built around suburban meetings or an early flight. Suburban trains on the Western, Central and Harbour lines carry most commuters, and the UTS on Mobile app from Indian Railways sells local tickets without a queue. Avoid boarding with luggage during the morning and evening rush.
The south-west monsoon usually reaches Mumbai in June and brings heavy rain until September, which can flood low-lying roads and slow the local trains. Ganesh Chaturthi, in August or September, draws large crowds to Lalbaug and the sea front for ten days. The Elephanta Caves are closed on Mondays. Dress conservatively at Siddhivinayak Temple and at Haji Ali Dargah, and carry a scarf to cover your head at the dargah.
Best time to visit Mumbai
November to February, with days of about 17-33°C and lower humidity. June to September brings heavy monsoon rain.

Terminal 2 at Sahar handles all international flights and Air India's domestic network, while Terminal 1 at Santacruz serves low-cost domestic carriers.
