You might be wondering how you can show your love to the one that has your heart. But just because you live in the city does not mean there are no romantic things to do in Gauteng. Quite the contrary!

From great eateries to game farms just a short drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria, and even hidden gems in the middle of the city, you won’t be short on fun ways to show him or her that you’re sweet, romantic and always up for adventure. If you’re looking for something low-key, you can pack a picnic and head to Northcliff Hill or the Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens, or if you’re lovers of the arts, visit the Goodman Art Gallery. Alternatively, you could visit the Johannesburg Planetarium or the Harties Cableway.

Looking to pull out all the stops and blow your love away? Then check out these romantic things to do in Gauteng all year long:

1. Romantic Harties Cableway Picnic & Honeymoon Suite for Two
