Memorable half day tour of Soweto - We had a great experience with Pastor as our guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable and explained to us the history of apartheid as we went from site to site. A very humbling experience, would highly recommend.

Great Experience - This Soweto tour was one of the highlights of my trip to South Africa. My guide, Lindiwe, was very professional. He picked me up on time from the airport, and made sure I got back on time to catch my flight. This company also offers multiple pick-up locations.
Lindiwe was super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture of Soweto and Johannesburg. I loved how flexible and accommodating he was. He even took amazing photos for me, and taught me a bit of Xhosa! It felt personal, engaging, and authentic. I also felt safe as a solo traveler. Truly excellent service. Highly recommend!

A very interesting and comprehensive experience - A very interesting and comprehensive experience. Our guide Lindela gave us an in-depth account of the country’s history and its key figures, which was especially helpful for us as we had only arrived in South Africa a few hours earlier.

Flexible private tour. Highly recommended - They were really responsive and flexible for a private tour. They accommodated our tight schedule and arranged for the Mandela house to stay open late. Highly recommended. You won’t be disappointed.
