@Uber_RSA Driver-Partners Shares the Most Popular Destinations in #CapeTown and #Joburg

Hi Friends,

Since Uber’s launch in Johannesburg in September 2013, there have been over 969 000 active riders and 12 000 active drivers using Uber app in South Africa alone…that’s a lot of trips! With so many trips taking place each day Uber began to wonder… which places are the most popular for international visitors and locals?

Uber is in the business of connecting people to places and we know that drivers know a thing or two about where locals and visitors like to go in Johannesburg and Cape Town.

• Most popular eateries in Cape Town - Tortilla Modern Mexican, Cubana Latino Cafe & Cigar Lounge - Somerset Rd
• Most popular hotel in Cape Town Mandela Rhodes Place Hotel
• The Radisson Blu Gautrain Hotel, Michelangelo Hotel and Raphael Penthouse Suites are the most popular in Johannesburg
• Johannesburg most visited eateries are Lobby Bar and Faces Lounge

Cape Town
Cape Town has unique and vibrant eateries that have become a hit with riders in the Mother City. They often get requests to destinations such as Tortilla Modern Mexican, Cubana Latino Cafe & Cigar Lounge - Somerset Rd, Obz Square as well as Arnold's Restaurant are the most requested destinations amongst Capetonians. Hotels, as well as Business Parks such as the Wembley Square Offices, The Boulevard Office Park and Mandela Rhodes Place Hotel and Spa, are also popular in the city with many of their riders requesting these destinations on a daily basis.

Collin, one of the Uber drivers we spoke to said that he absolutely loves the views that he gets to see while on a trip in the city or while waiting for riders and can never get enough of the beauty of God's masterpiece that Cape Town is.

Johannesburg
From the feedback Uber received, Joburg drivers mentioned that they noticed a trend of business people using Uber, especially in Sandton with the most popular destinations including The Radisson Blu Gautrain Hotel, Michelangelo Hotel and Raphael Penthouse Suites. The drivers were all in agreement that Sandton is a convenient place for business people but also has the trendiest spots for food and drinks, such as Lobby Bar and Faces Lounge, which are the most visited places for Uber riders traveling around Sandton.

Another driver that Uber chatted to, Keegan Lessing, explains that he enjoys showing international tourists around the city and says that it makes him feel like he is representing the country as a tour guide.

With the above destinations, it’s not hard to see why riders find the app convenient as it offers a stress-free option of traveling to and from various destinations whether for business or leisure.
 

Whether you are looking for a top-notch restaurant, accommodation for business or want to explore South Africa's cultural destinations, Uber drivers are your best option for getting around efficiently and seamlessly.

 

Cheers!!!

Product Review - COCOON Boutique Spa @ Radisson Blu Hotel, Johannesburg

Hi Guys,

It is always a great opportunity when you visit something for the first time. It happened with me when I first visited the Cocoon Spa which is opposite Mushroom Park, Sandton in Radisson Blu Hotel's Ground Floor area. It was my first time that I ever visited any Spa in my life. I immediately fell in love with the calm & reflective environment of Cocoon Spa.

The use of colorful dots have brought a different texture to the entrance every dot representing the O's and C's in Cocoon.

There is a display of all the organic & silk products for customers to browse and buy. The rate list is also displayed for customers to refer. 

The waiting lounge has everything you want. It gives you the same calm & relaxed experience while you wait for your treatment or after the treatments. Art & paintings builds up a great environment for customers.

The front walls again showcases some of the amazing art and organic stuff to browse and buy. The Cocoon Spa has their own scrub and lotion products as well for customers to enjoy. The products are prices right for everyone to buy and use. 

Another room for foot and hand massage which also gets converted into private and personal yoga sessions as and when required. Everything in decor matches the Cocoon Spa's aura. You will definitely fall in love with the same. 

I went through the Cocoon - Full body Massage for 45 min and this was the first time I ever had this kind of treatment in a Spa in Johannesburg. I really felt relaxed as trained staff went through calming all my nerves and muscles in my back, neck, legs, hands and shoulders. Head massage really took away all my stress. The aromatic & herbal oils brought a lot of warmth to my body. I felt so light like flying in the air after my 45 minutes of treatment. Really I was missing something in my life as now I plan to get the same every month.
