Informative half day tour to Soweto

Published on Feb, 2025

Fabulous half day tour to Soweto. Thabang (our tour guide) was knowledgeable, informative, and a proud local. He adapted the tour to take us off the beaten track. We visited a local village and met some local kids. Highly recommend this tour.

Really interesting...

Published on Jan, 2025

Really interesting insight into a much misunderstood part of Africa. Our guide Thabang gave us a very thorough and well-explained background to Soweto and we visited some of the worst areas where the inhabitants were very friendly. A memorable experience.

Solo soweto tour

Published on Jan, 2025

An excellent tour. I went solo and felt very safe with my guide and learned so much about Soweto. I would highly recommend this tour.

Five Star Tour by Thabang

Published on Jan, 2025

Thabang was our guide, can’t believe this was his first tour since mid-December. He is a truly authentic guide with great knowledge and a man who is passionate about his routes. He offered us a lived-experience insight into the United States of Soweto and made sure our trip was very special, showing us the side of Soweto that the media doesn’t want you to see. We’ll never forget it. Highly recommend touring with Thabang. Thanks, from Cheese-Boy, Cheese-Girl, Mum and Dad

Incredible Soweto Tour with Neo – A Journey Through History and Culture

Published on Jan, 2025

We had the privilege of exploring Soweto on a tour led by Neo, and it was an unforgettable experience! Neo is an exceptional guide—knowledgeable, passionate, and deeply connected to the community and its history. His storytelling brought every stop to life, giving us a profound understanding of Soweto’s rich culture and pivotal role in South Africa’s history. The itinerary was perfectly curated, starting with the vibrant and historic Vilakazi Street, including a visit to Nelson Mandela’s former home, which was a moving experience. Neo provided fascinating insights into Mandela’s life and the legacy of his fight for freedom. We also visited the famous Soweto Towers, a striking landmark that showcases local art and creativity. Neo made sure we understood their cultural significance while also giving us time to take in the breathtaking views. Throughout the tour, we felt a genuine connection to the spirit of Soweto—its resilience, energy, and hope. Neo’s warmth and enthusiasm made the experience even more special, and he ensured we felt welcome and safe at all times. If you want to immerse yourself in the history, culture, and heart of Soweto, I can’t recommend this tour with Neo highly enough. It’s an experience that will stay with us forever!
