Amazing and friendly guide, great tour - I loved this tour. Clement was a great guide, very friendly and knowledgeable! On my first day here I saw a lot of Jo'burg, Soweto and the Apartheid Museum. It's very important to know the history and Soweto really moved me. I absolutely loved visiting a local community in the informal housing and seeing the beautiful children. Make sure you take some cash if you would like to buy something at their art shop to support their community.

Extremely informative and well- planned tour of Soweto - This was an extremely informative, well-planned itinerary. The guide- Khutso- was fantastically knowledgable and made sure we understand many aspects of life in Sowesto - present and past. The trip culminated in a visit to the Mandelas’ Soweto home now a museum- so amazing and interesting.

Ultimate Johannesburg Tour - I can’t recommend the Ultimate Johannesburg Tour enough—it was absolutely amazing! This tour gave us an incredible window into South Africa’s history and culture, especially its apartheid past. Visiting iconic spots like the Apartheid Museum and Constitution Hill was eye-opening, with our guide (Tinyiko)explaining the struggles and resilience of the people in a way that really hit home.
