Johannesburg isn’t just a business hub, it’s a sprawling urban adventure waiting to be uncovered. From hidden food markets to historic townships and lush suburban escapes, the City of Gold rewards those who dare to explore. But to truly unlock Joburg’s layered experiences, you’ll need the flexibility only a rental car can provide.
With over 27 years of experience and the largest independently owned fleet in South Africa, SANI SIXT empowers you to rent premium without breaking the bank. Whether you’re touching down at OR Tambo or heading into the heart of Sandton, SANI SIXT is available for your rental needs.
Start in Sandton: Chic, Central, Connected
Highlights: Nelson Mandela Square, world-class malls, rooftop bars
Ideal vehicle: BMW X5
Sandton is the playground of premium vehicles. Why feel left out when you can blend in with your rented car? At SANI SIXT we have a fleet that comes with a variety of vehicles that are fit for every location and event.
Sandton is not only Joburg’s glossy business centre, but it’s also a gateway to the city’s contrasts. Park at the Michelangelo Towers, stroll through Mandela Square and try out the different restaurants, or head to the rooftop at Alto234 for the highest cocktail in Africa.

Ever heard of the saying “dynamite comes in small packages?” A small yet premium rental like a Polo TSI or Golf R is the ultimate rental for a day trip in Soweto. The ability to drive through the busy streets like Vilakazi street and maneuver parking makes this the ideal rental.
Tour buses follow a tight schedule but you don’t have to. With a rental car, you can linger at the Mandela House, stop for kota and shisa nyama, or detour to Orlando Towers for an adrenaline fix.
