SOWETO TOWERS

Amazing experience! Was my 12yo daughter’s first bungee jump (after she had been asking to do it for years) and was a super easy and safe experience. She wants to do it again, and I think when we go back I might do the free fall as the jolting part of bungee jumping isn’t my thing, but falling into that big net looks pretty fun. The team was great, everyone was so friendly and efficient, really a great spot! 🥰

The Soweto Towers are vibrant, colorful and full of energy. The artwork is stunning, and there’s always a great atmosphere around the area. If you’re into adventure, the bungee jumping and other activities make the visit even more exciting. A unique spot that highlights the creativity and spirit of Soweto, definitely worth the stop!

We rolled up to the painted cooling towers and the colour hits you first—huge murals against the sky, music drifting from the plaza, people cheering as someone counts down for a jump. We grabbed coffees, found a spot near the base, and just watched for a while. Even without jumping you feel the buzz: harness clicks, a moment of quiet, then a shout and laughter floating back down. Cameras out, then pockets again, because it’s just as good to stand there and take it in. After a bit we wandered the perimeter for photos and kept pointing out new details in the artwork. Kids posed, a drone zipped by, and locals waved us into frame once or twice. The whole place has an easy, friendly energy—industrial bones turned into a meeting spot. We left with paint-streaked skylines on our phones and that light, happy feeling you get when a simple stop turns into a memory.

Had so much fun, did the free fall off the Soweto towers and then had lunch there. Wow a real incredible experience and delicious food I didn't even manage to get any photos of the food 😂😋 it was that good!!!

Distinctive landmarks in Soweto. Artwork is ever changing advertising but it is bright and colourful. Used to be coal power stacks (which are still used in other parts of Joburg). I didn't personally bungee jump but enjoyed and was freaked out watching two strangers do so from the bridge between the two towers. I've never bungee jumped before but the price looked cheaper than I've seen elsewhere in the world.

I went to Soweto Towers for a bungee jump and it was nothing short of amazing! From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, supportive, and full of positive energy. Their encouragement made the experience even more thrilling, and I felt completely safe throughout the entire process. The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, and their professionalism really stood out. I loved every single moment - it’s something I’ll never forget. If you’re thinking about doing it, stop thinking and just go for it! You won’t regret it.

The towers hit you first—bright murals against big sky—and then the plaza energy kicks in: music, food smells, people filming jumps on their phones. We grabbed coffees, found a spot near the base, and watched the countdowns and laughter bounce around the concrete. Even without jumping, you feel part of it. We wandered the perimeter for photos and kept finding new details in the artwork. Locals waved us into frame and offered angles we’d have missed. It’s industrial bones turned into a meeting place, and it leaves you smiling.

The colorful towers beckon from afar: "Wow, art!" you think - until the dazzling facade turns out to be a giant advertising poster. Bungee jumping awaits at the top, accessible via a rope ladder that looks more like a game show than safe. Inside: A beer garden - quite nice, but 20 Rand entry just to be allowed to buy beer? Oh well. Everything feels like a marketing event that relies more on likes than on real experiences. Three out of five stars - for fans of painted advertising, beer and adrenaline.
