Fabulous - The city tour was excellent! Our guide and driver (KG) was wonderful. Very knowledgeable, interesting and able to answer all our questions. We were picked up where we were staying and dropped back at the end of the tour which was very convenient. Highly recommend this tour!

A very interesting and plaisant tour in Johannesburg! 🙏 - The guide and chauffeur, a lady under the name of kgaogelo (KG), was cool and very plaisant as well as an excellent driver. The tour was well designed and perfectly timed, a lot of information was provided as we progressed.
I strongly recommend this tour, KG is top!

Under Impressed - I'm not sure which half day tour we got, but it wasn't as described. The guide said we couldn't go to Capital Hill, as they were having a concert there that night 6/25/23 and it was closed off. Didn't go to Mary Fitzgerald Square, as didn't drive over Mandela cable bridge. Didn't spend an hour at Carlton Center, but just drove by it. We were dropped off and spent 2 hours at the Apartheid Museum, which I had no interest in seeing. I'd have rather gone to Gold Reef City Casino and amusement park across from the museum. I was in Jo'burg 35 years ago for half a day and saw much more at that time, even a ballet that evening. Thought it was odd that the guide asked if we were from a "red" or "blue" state and later if we were a "couple".
