Highlights

Pretoria - On this half day tour you will learn a lot about the fascinating history of South Africa during a Pretoria city experience. Pretoria is the capital of South Africa and therefore full of historic sites.
Voortrekker Monument - A major attraction on this tour is the Voortrekker Monument. This monument is of great significance to many Afrikaans speaking South Africans, there it stands for Afrikaner Nationalism. The monument is in the shape of a big stone cube. The interior walls depict the story of the Great Trek, a mass movement of Afrikaaner Boers who resented British rule.
Church Square - Pretoria has character in its buildings and during this city architecture tour you will be given ample opportunity to ask your guide about the history behind the buildings and culture. We visit Church Square with prominent buildings like the Ou Raadsaal, Palace of Justice and Capital Theatre.

A gold ending - We booked a last minute Private Half Day Pretoria City Tour from Johannesburg. It was near 1h before our guide and driver Goodwill arrive at our hotel and pick-up for a lovely half day. Goodwill started asking and telling history about Johannesburg and south africa. Later on he explained the whole tour and began point by point. Gave us time at each place and was kindly when we asked about culture or different doubts.
