A Must Soweto + Joberg Tour Ever - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Khutso was an amazing tour guide! He arrived early in the morning to pick us up from the hotel and set the tone for a fantastic day. He is incredibly knowledgeable, sharing history and details with so much passion that the stories truly came alive. You can ask him anything he always has the answer and explains it clearly. The Soweto walk was exactly what we needed. It gave us a much deeper understanding of the real South Africa and its people. We truly appreciate the experience and highly recommend asking for Khutso, he is simply the best! The lunch buffet is delicious! Btw.

Very interesting and informative - Great tour, learned a lot. Tshepo was a great guide, shared his experience of South Africa, both current and historical. The museums were world class and provided a sobering view of the Apartheid era. Highly recommended

Excellent Soweto tour with an amazing guide - Everything went very smoothly, from the transfers to and from the airport to the visit of Soweto. This tour was truly one of the highlights of our stay in South Africa. Thapelo is such an amazing guide — extremely knowledgeable, very friendly, and we always felt safe and happy to discuss and learn from him. The lunch was excellent as well. We really appreciated the tour and the organization.

Awesome full day learning about Apartheid - My day guided by kind, easy-going, smart, didactic and enthusiastic Lebo was an awesome lesson on South Africa's past and present. He provided loads of interesting and relevant information and was very pacient with my never-ending list of questions! He also highlighted the main themes not to be missed during the visits to the museums, thus helping me make the best out of the time available. I'll totally recommend it. As for the advertising of this tour, I confess I found it a little bit confusing. At Mo Afrika's website, it says that the tour includes a tour through Joburg (including a visit to Top of Africa), but it was only after talking to the office thru WhatsApp that I learned that it was not included. So I'd suggest they edit and review their ad materials so that they are consistent with what is actually offered.
