Additional Information

Our Johannesburg city tour and Soweto package transports visitors to the pivotal moments when South Africa rapidly transitioned into a new economic and political chapter. A diverse throng of people from all corners of the globe flooded into the city, enticed by the promise of prosperity.
The vast Gold belt that stretched approximately 500 kilometers from east to west became a magnet for those striving to carve out their livelihood in Johannesburg. At this time, South Africa embarked on a fresh epoch that would forever alter its course.
In the wake of this expansion, Soweto emerged from modest origins. Both Soweto and Johannesburg played decisive roles in shaping the nation’s economic and political landscape, utilizing a mixture of strategies both commendable and questionable.
These are destinations that should not be overlooked while exploring Johannesburg.
