Explore Soweto, the Apartheid Museum, Mandela’s former home, local life, and traditional lunch on a thoughtful full-day Johannesburg tour.

“Excellent tour and tour guide (Khotsu I believe). If you want to see and know authentic Soweto and if you want to see another slice of Johannesburg, this is the tour for you. Ending the day with the Apartheid Museum tied the tour together perfectly. Moving. It is a full day, so be prepared for that if you tire easily. Wear comfy shoes. Not an inordinate amount of walking but plenty of time on your feet standing and walking. Lunch is included but came later in the tour so eat something for breakfast so you can enjoy the pre-lunch portion of the tour. All in all well worth doing. And…”

“Great tour. So much to see especially if you’re doing Soweto and museum.. so take the first bus out. Museum was so so… Soweto is a must see. Take some time to do some shopping and grab a coffee/ beer. Interesting to see this town. We ended up taking an 15 min Uber back from the museum because the bus took too long to loop back. Recommend to see Jo’burg in this way. Sit upstairs if you can.”
