My tour guide and driver was fantastic. It was a really educational trip which I greatly appreciated, especially the stories and historical context of what I was seeing. I learned a lot from asking additional questions. Go Orlando Pirates!

If you are visiting Jburg, you owe it to yourself to take a guided tour of
Soweto, and you will not find a better organization to take you on the tour. Our guide, Mo, was excellent, establishing rapport with everyone we met whether the staff at Kliptown school, the Mandela home, the Hector Pieterson museum, or a resident of Soweto. You’ll see the stadiums, the various residential and business areas of Soweto, the struggles of everyday living all while being perfectly safe and well guided. Set aside what you hear on the news, and get out and meet the people. This company will not disappoint. You’ll find that your inquiries by email will be fully and quickly answered.
