Midrand is basically smack bang in the middle of the route from Johannesburg and Pretoria, and is accessible to all the major freeways. It is only a short drive to the OR airport as well. The first step is to make your way to the nearest car hire in Midrand, Halfway Gardens and pick out the car of your choice from a leading car rental agency and you will be ready to explore the greater Guateng and Pretoria precincts’. If it is designer shopping you want then the Sandton area is a mere stone’s throw away.

Sandton City has all the up market goodies and paraphernalia, to please the most discerning shopper. The Mandela Square is also worth a visit with its 6-metre bronze statue of the former president Nelson Mandela, with all its noteworthy venues and excellent cuisine to suite all palettes. Midrand, Pretoria and Johannesburg are literally one large urban area. Once the area was peri-urban with small holdings dotted over the veldt, many of these small farms and horse ranches have been replaced with new townhouse housing expansions. Such development has meant a greater need for shops and new businesses have blossomed making it one of the faster growing suburban areas in Gauteng.
