More of an immersion than a tour - First of all I would like to thank my guide Molalu on being so attentive to my questions as well as knowing the history of Maboneng so extensively. I loved the tour , two hours flew by so quickly and even interacting with the local artists was such a nice touch as well as seeing some hidden gems in Maboneng . I’m definitely going back there on my next trip to Johannesburg 😌

A nice walking tour - Learn something about the history and culture of the local people living in that section of Johannesburg. I appreciate the guidance of Milalo Mphuma who had provided much information about the city.

Joburg highlight - I had a 121 tour with Refiloe and it was the highlight of my Joburg trip. He was so knowledgeable and passionate, we had a really fun couple of hours and I felt really at home in Maboneng afterwards.

Great tour even for solo travellers - I had a great time on tour, my guide was Refiloe, he was very kind insightful and managed to make the tour interactive and fun. I was the only one in the group and did not feel awkward at all. It has a great end on Fox Street where you can have a nice coffee, do some local shopping and eating.

Vibrant and Soulful - We loved it. Refiloe put our mind at ease. We felt safe. The neighborhood was vibrant. He was very informative. He was friendly and fun to engage with. He showed us some amazing pieces of art work and explained the story behind each piece. This excursion allowed us to feel the soul of the city. It is definitely worth the trip. I would highly recommend.

From the moment the tour begins, you’re immersed in a vibrant world of creativity, history, and storytelling. Refilled is incredibly knowledgeable, weaving fascinating narratives about each piece of art, the artists behind them, and the social and political contexts they reflect. His passion for the area and its artistry is infectious. Beyond just admiring the stunning murals, you’ll learn about the rich cultural significance of Maboneng and how street art has transformed this neighborhood into a hub of expression and innovation.

Poor service. - Waited for 30 minutes. I had no network so eventually asked for a hotspot with receptionist to see how to contact this outfit. I see they tried communicating with me to say they would be there an hour later, so 1.5 hrs late in total. I had got there in an Uber and just returned back in an Uber. So all in all, I didn’t have a tour I paid for (they will refund that) and spent R170 going there and back! If you can’t do the trips you’re advertising, don’t advertise those times.
