Great way to see Joberg

A good introduction to Johannesburg & area
Martin_K

A really good introduction to Johannesburg and its beginnings following the discovery of gold, followed by Soweto and how it came to prominence during apartheid. The Nelson Mandela house is fascinating, (a bit touristy, though - you're besieged by hawkers as soon as the vehicle comes to a stop!). The Apartheid Museum is a must-see. Did those whites actually believe they were doing right?
A good overview of Jo'burg

Nick was a great guide, who constantly was a fount of local knowledge and much experience. First off a drive through of dangerous Downtown Jo'burg, which was great as you always felt safe. Then to the 2010 World Cup Stadium, for a look outside. This was followed by an extensive visit to the Apartheid Museum, which was stunning, with Nick giving us plenty of time to see. Then onto a lunch in Soweto of a local buffet, with looks at Desmond Tutu's house and Nelson Mandela's house. Nick was such a good guide and very attentive to his clients. Great tour!

Firstly our guide Nick was excellent, he had live in Johannesburg most of his life and new everything about the city and surrounding areas, the tour of the main city was excellent and he pointed out areas with some detail on the history of how life used to be and what life is like now. Nick also took the time to guide us into the museum explaining the entrance and what we should expect.
Nick also took us around a number of different areas in Soweto explaining the culture of each one & how they have changed over the years, we also stopped for lunch in Soweto which was amazing.
One of the best guides we've had on a trip and one of the most insightful and though provoking tours we've done.
If you are visiting Johannesburg we would highly recommend you take the time to go on this tour.
Great experience

An awesome introduction to the city!

When I arrived in Johannesburg on my solo trip, I didn’t think I’d be able to explore the city properly on my own. However this tour served as an intriguing introduction to the city and the attractions that make it notable. If it’s your first time in the city, I would recommend this tour to get you out and about!
Great Way to See the Highlights of Jo'burg

This tour was a fantastic way to see the top sights of Johannesburg if you have a limited amount of time in the city, if you aren't sure what to see, or if you want to get a good overview of the city. The Apartheid Museum was amazing- historic, informative, moving, powerful. Visiting Nelson and Winnie Mandela's house was great- that from so humble a home could rise such strength and leadership.

Our guide was really good in highlighting the history of the country and was quite passionate about his own experience growing up there. Sad to see how people are still living like they are in Soweto. The only down side of the trip was the food when we stopped of for something to eat considering the price we paid for the tour. On the plus side, it was just us with a personal guide.
Very insightful day trip of johannesburg
