Valuable introduction to South African history

With a limited amount of time in Johannesburg, we felt our time on this tour was very well-spent. Our guide and driver was informative and helpful. providing a balanced and useful introduction to South Africa's recent history. We covered a lot of ground: driving through the Soweto township, visiting the Nelson Mandela House and Hector Pieterson Memorial, and then on to the Apartheid Museum, which was a sobering and moving experience. Following lunch at the museum, we drove through the city's central business district, with our guide explaining the city's development and origins as a gold-mining center, as illustrated through various monuments there. Then it was on to Constitution Hill, where we toured the prison where human rights activists and others were detained in appalling conditions, and then took a look inside the adjacent Constitutional Court building. All in all, a very full and interesting day. Highly recommended.

Day in Johannesburg

This was an excellent tour, as we only had one day, before flying home. Our driver/ guide was very informative and passionate about sharing his knowledge. We saw a lot of points of interest.

Well-organized tour with a punctual pick-up, comfortable vehicle, and an excellent guide. We covered all the highlights.

We had a great experience on this tour. The guide picked us up right on time in a comfortable, clean vehicle, and complimentary water was a thoughtful touch. We visited all the sites included in the itinerary, and the guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and very accommodating throughout the day. The only thing I would have changed is spending a little more time in Soweto, as it was one of the highlights for me. However, I understand that the schedule was constrained by the Apartheid Museum's 5:00 p.m. closing time. Overall, a very well-organized tour that I would happily recommend.

A Truly Amazing Experience, Not to Be Missed!!

A truly great experience! The experience itself was outstanding, a full day of learning and discovery. Some things were lively, full of energy (Vilakazi St.), some were amazing sights (Orlando Towers, FNB Stadium), and some were educational and yet somber (Mandela House, Hector Pieterson Memorial, Constitution Hill and Old Jails). A thoroughly enjoyable experience. The Driver/Guide Tepo (ph) was also amazing, informative, patient, helpful and friendly! Solly (CEO) was also excellent, kept me informed, provided timely information, and was also very patient and helpful.
