Customer Reviews
Thokoza Park has a rating of 4 out of 5 based on over 3580 reviews on Google
Thokoza Park is my go-to spot, it’s conveniently located and has a lots of features like picnic spots, benches, a quaint stream, and braai areas. While Thokoza Park offers much, the state of the water stream is a concern. Despite park cleaning efforts elsewhere, the stream unfortunately remains littered. Addressing this through consistent maintenance would significantly enhance the park's overall appeal. The lack of evening lighting in certain areas creates safety concerns, particularly during shorter winter days. Installing well-placed lighting would significantly improve security and encourage broader park use throughout the day. Children using the park are at risk for injury from some of the broken swings. Making their repair a top priority would guarantee that everyone had a fun and safe experience.
The park is a true natural beauty, it's just a bit neglected, as some rides are broken and unsafe for young kids. A beautiful place overall, please keep an eye on your young ones and guide them to safer rides
Was a splendid weather, but saw a lot of unpleasing scenerios while there. Like kids smoking Hubble's, cigarettes and drinking alcohol in public which I thought was rude of them. But overall it was a chilled day, met friendly people, had a proper jol with people
The park it's self was awesome. However the police that came at 5PM ended the fun family day in a very disturbing manner. Tonight myself and my family go to sleep again not impressed to be South African because of being treated the way we were. The police could have chosen to speak to the community but they chose to carry on like they were moving sheep from the garden.
Excellent park..but the overflowing sewerage inthe stream is a total no..major health hazard..human rights violation why isn't the City of Johannesburg addressing this issue???
The park was not clean and very full, while you are sitting people come sell you something. No more
One of the best picnic spots in Soweto, made special for friends, family and couples. Great park to host any events or better yet tie the knot at! Clean and safe park.
