A little bit Mo Soweto - This was an unforgettable experience with a gem of a tour guide. Enough good things can't be said about Mo and the knowledge he imparted. Be prepared to tip locals at some of the stops. What they add to the experience is totally worth it. Would definitely recommend.

A wonderful experience with a knowledgeable local guide - Couldn't have asked for a better Soweto tour. Our guide Mo was very friendly, an absolute fountain of local knowledge, and passionate about giving back to his community. We all learned so much from him and he took really great care of us throughout. Everything on the operator end was very well organised, with good communication throughout. The logistics were smooth and we had a comfy minivan with an AC.

100% do it - Absolutely fabulous! We only had an afternoon in South Africa transiting and decided to take the tour. Was absolutely wonderful, informative, interesting and entertaining. Despite having some concerns at the outset about safety, we felt 100% safe and secure- and it was great for our children to get an appreciation of areas that they wouldn't usually see. Our tour guide Mo was fantastic and as a local was able to give us additional information. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Half day tour - Soweto - My husband and I had a 8 hr layover in Johannesburg and wanted to see a few key places. This was the best tour we have been on. Our guide was Steve. He was very knowledgeable and stayed with us the entire time explaining everything to us since we were pretty limited on time. He customized the day for us based on what we wanted to see and do. He also had great food recommendations and took us to try some local South African food. I can’t recommend Steve enough. We will definitely book another tour with him in the future and refer all our family and friends.

Impressive Soweto tour renders you silent - It certainly is a passionate tour with Mo as the experienced and passionate guide. We had a short time frame and he could tell us in every detail about the history of Soweto. Even more, as he lives in Soweto and has started with others the Kliptown Youth Project, he can tell from the bottom of jus heart about real life in Soweto. Education is key! Impressie tour.

Private tour - Fantastic half day tour of Soweto and the Apartheid museum. I organised a private tour and was picked up at the airport hotel and dropped off for my flight. A perfect way to fill in a day with a knowledgeable and friendly guide.
