Great! - Great trick! We loved our bike ride in Soweto with Nkuli and his team who introduced us to the sights, but also the different neighborhoods, the way of life of the inhabitants and their association the Shalk, reception center for young children. We also learned a lot about the history of Soweto and about Apartheid. NK is very professional and very nice! A great time for the whole family, safely. Not to be missed!
