• 5Great Wsy to See Joberg & Soweto

  A half day tour is a great way to get a quick broad look at Johannesburg and Soweto. Probably a bit quick as there is a lot to see but thats all the time we had

• 5Eye opening visit to Soweto in South Africa

  The visit to Soweto was amazing and felt authentic, as earlier in my time around Joburg I was in the Rosebank and Sandton areas so it was a major contrast. But the locals were friendly, the tour guide was very informative and the braai meal was satisfying.

• 5Outstanding experience

  Thabang is an outstanding, impressive, motivated young man, his knowledge and passion for his Soweto area was commendable. We learnt a lot and found it a sobering experience. A tour that should not be missed. Thank you.

• 4A raw but honest experience of Soweto

  Neo was a very good driver and collected us on time. He explained the history of Soweto to us very well. At times this was both confronting and uplifting!

• 5An experience of a lifetime!

  I have rarely ever taken a tour as fascinating and worthwhile as this one. The guide picks you up at a place of your your own choosing, then takes you to Soweto while telling you about the many facets of this place. Coming from Europe we had our very own expectations and preconceptions of this place. I underestimated both the size and the diversity of it. It‘s not only shantytowns! The whole history of apartheid, the uprising of 1976 and its aftermath hit differently when you walk these streets and talk to people who were affected by it one way or another, and still you see people for what they are – not that different from everyone else, living their daily lives as best they can, embracing community and family. You get to meet real people and hear personal stories, an experience that not many of us “Westerners” get to have, and I will be forever grateful for the privilege of being so warmly welcomed despite my preconceptions. Most importantly, despite the weird feeling you just can’t shake off if you first visit a place you only ever heard rumours about, we never felt unsafe and were treated very warmly by the inhabitants of Soweto. African hospitality truly is unmatched. You leave this place a changed man for sure. I want to extend a special thanks to Thabang, our guide who made this experience unforgettable. It felt like being shown around your friend‘s neighbourhood. Highly recommended!

About Pretoria

Pretoria is South Africa's administrative capital in Gauteng, known for jacaranda-lined streets, the Union Buildings and sites of the nation's history.

Pretoria sits in a valley between ridges of the highveld, about an hour's drive north of Johannesburg. The Union Buildings, a sweeping sandstone complex on a hill with formal gardens, is the seat of the presidency and the site of Nelson Mandela's 1994 inauguration. Church Square, with its statue of Paul Kruger, is the historic heart, and the Voortrekker Monument stands on a hilltop, a granite landmark with a museum inside.

Top-ranked sights in Pretoria: Voortrekker Monument, Union Buildings, Kruger Museum.
