Northwards – The Full Story (Special Benefit Tour)

ABOUT

By popular demand, we are repeating our sold-out Northwards Tour. Book soon!

Northwards is a Joburg landmark, perched on the Parktown Ridge, looking out over the city’s leafy northern suburbs. But how much do you really know about this Herbert Baker masterpiece?

Join us for an exclusive tour with the custodian of Northwards, Neil Viljoen, as he takes us from cellar to attic - revealing the tempestuous history of this glorious mansion and the colourful characters who called it home. 

A consummate raconteur, Neil is THE expert on Northwards and all proceeds from this special benefit tour will go towards the publication of Neil Viljoen’s meticulously researched biography of Jose Dale Lace, the First Lady of Northwards.

Please note: this tour is for adults only. Guests are welcome to stroll in the gardens after the tour, or bring their own food and enjoy a picnic on the lawns. We also ask that you book through Quicket or by phoning the office number (no emails to the office, please, as our wonderful secretary will be on leave during this time).
