Great tour. Highly recommend!! - We had a wonderful artistic stroll through Maboneng with Refiloe. He was a friendly, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable tour guide. Not only about the art, but the neighbourhood and Joburg itself. We could have walked around all day chatting about art and culture with Refiloe!! Great tour. Highly recommend!!

Amazing guide, fun, informative, interesting, cool. - The young man who was our guide was AMAZING!! He was so smart, informative and charming. He pointed out so many interesting things about the murals and artists as well as S. African history. He stayed with us and helped us negotiate with the shop owners when we bought souvenirs. And he stayed with us until our Uber came. I would love to have a son as conscientious and thoughtful as he was. He was a gem and I wish him nothing but success and happiness in his future endeavors. He can come and visit us in the U.S. anytime.

Great tour in a vibrant neighbourhood - Very nice tour with an enthusiastic guide in a vibrant neighbourhood full of original street art, mostly 'official' work. The guide made us feel very safe knowing all people around.

Just do it - Refiloe was an amazing tour guide. He gave us a comprehensive way of viewing the various tags and unique signifiers of the local street artists which we continued to use during our stay in Johannesburg as we noticed street art in other areas. Highly recommend this tour!

Highly recommended! You will love it. - Refiloe provided an awesome experience. My artistic 17yr old daugther absolutely loved it and we had the most fun. Refiloe’s knowledge of the area, the street art and artists not too mention his passion and enthusiasm made this tour a lasting memory.

Great way to get to know Maboneng - Maboneng is such a vibrant area and with Refiloe, our super knowledgeable quide this tour brings it alive. So many amazing pieces from the commissioned/authorized to the street art. A fun way to spend a couple of hours and learn more about the neighbourhood.

Fascinating Insights on some INCREDIBLE Art! - A 3-hour walk through the Maboneng district. It abounds with edgy, artsy charm, and our guides' insights into the hundreds of fantastic city murals, are as eye-opening as they are informative. Such a big history of Art living alongside Activism. You would never find all these by yourself, so go with Refiloe from One Day Africa! He's a true Ray of Light!
