Constitution Hill and Apartheid Museum Day Tour - A moving and powerful trip to Constitution Hill and the Apartheid Museum, finding out about the devastating impact and experiences of those living through this part of South Africa’s history. Marvin was our guide and he was excellent-informative, attentive and friendly and fully committed to us getting the most out of our tour. Thank you for a great day trip Marvin. Highly recommended.

Amazing Service. Talented Guide - Spectacular company to work with. They turned the limited amount of things to see and do in Johannesburg into a full day and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with Marvin. A very knowledgeable and experienced guide having worked for the company over eight years. He is a dedicated employee. Not only to the company, but to his guests, maybe even more importantly so. He was charming funny, knowledgeable, and engaging. The company communication system is absolutely superb. I received texts from administration in regard to pick up times notices of any changes, etc. what impressed me the most was how proud and loyal Mojo employees are. We met three. All raved about how kind, considerate and compassionate. The owner of the company is in regard to providing them with meaningful employment. I was impressed. As a retired, travel agent, I can tell you that the experience we had with Marvin is rare, and we are extremely grateful for his kindness and concern for our safety. We wish them all very well

Johannesburg city tour - Very nice tour in Johannsberg. Learned a lot about Nelson Mandela and the city of Johanssberg. The tour guides are knowledgeable and can speak very well which makes us easy to understand. Like the constitutional hill and would suggest this tour to anyone who wants to learn about the city.

Visit to Constitution Hill and Apartheid Museum - Our tour guide, Nosipho, was the absolute best! She is knowledgeable, personable and very accommodating. We really enjoyed our time in Johannesburg because she made our experience worthwhile. The sites visited are a must see as they provide insight into the psychological horrors of apartheid and what the South Africans endured. So pleased that this period is over and the country and its people are on the mend.

Very good places, but so so tour - Both sites are definately worth visitng, especially the Apartheid Museum. The driver is good too. However, this 'tour' is actually only transportation between your hotel and the two places, and the entrace ticket isn't that expensive. So if your hotel can arrange a car or taxi for you, no need to join a tour. You would have a bit more flexibility.

This is Just a Taxi Ride - My rating is for the tour, not the museums. They were very good. The trip was effectively a taxi ride with a few landmarks pointed out. Our guide Michael was a very nice fellow, but he kept looking at his mobile which was sitting on the front passenger's seat, while driving. In a country where road safety is questionable, this was very disconcerting. If you can make your own way to the museums safely yourself, then entry is quite cheap. It was also supposed to be an estimated 8 hour trip, which lasted less than 6.
