Excellent tour - The tour was awesome. It took us into parts I wouldn’t have through to go as well as areas I never would have ventured on my own. Joseph was an amazing tour guide and took care of us the entire way. Highly recommended

Native Historian City Guide - My guide Simba was a kind, native local citizen. His knowledge of Johannesburg history and of the city today is breathtaking. He should be lecturing at the university. There can’t be a better guide for a day tour for the curious or scholarly.
