Overview

Why the travelers book this tour because Soweto represents the hard-fought struggle against apartheid. We look beyond the bloody legend of the 16 June 1976 uprising and behind the hardened face of resistance politics, to the core Soweto- its people. Soweto is about people leading their lives - working and commuting, celebrating and grieving, see the poverty of an informal settlement shack and hostels in contrast with upper class suburbs of Diepkloof in Soweto. this tour promises a warm experience of this fascinating place.

Excellent tour of Johannesburg and Soweto

Published on Nov, 2024

What a wonderful day out with Joseph! He was the perfect guide - friendly, professional and very knowledgeable about Johannesburg and its history. Really pleased I booked this tour, and I would happily recommend to others.

Native Historian City Guide

Published on Oct, 2024

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.

Joseph was lovely
