Great tour - Shane was a great tour guide. He picked me up at my hotel in Johannesburg at around 07:00 so we wouldn't be stuck in traffic. He gave lots of informations about the places we were visiting and we were also talking about South Africa in general. The Cradle of Humankind is more children-oriented, but still very interesting. Lesedi was amazing, so many things to learn about South African people. I was back at the hotel around 16:00. As we were making good time, we stopped for coffee. I definitely recommend this tour.

Awesome guide! - Shane was an excellent guide, very attentive and fun. We went the whole way talking, he is very wise, I learned a lot along the way. I was traveling alone and I was a little scared of taking a tour alone, but Shane, from the moment we met, made me feel safe, and I felt very comfortable, I recommend this tour to everyone, and do it with Shane , this guy is awesome!!

Excellent - This tour has been on my wish list for months & the timing was just right that I was blessed with an awesome guide name Samantha. From the moment she met me the tour started. She pointed out different areas as we drove along . She was punctual and we stayed on schedule so I could experience all there was to see & do. Her knowledge is vast & I truly enjoyed it all . I truly enjoyed the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage site . The guide here was exceptional also. Samantha filled in where he left off & wish I had more time here. The staff @ Lesedi Cultural Village was very pleasant & not pushy at the gift shop. For anyone undecided about this tour it is well worth it. I learned a lot from Samatha on this tour & will highly recommend it.

Excellent Guide, Awesome Tour - Shane was prompt, knowledgeable and allowed us the freedom and time to experience the attractions at our own pace. He was happy to stop for a coffee for us, and when we accidentally left our phone in the car after the tour he happily returned it (thanks again Shane!). The Cradle of Human Kind was interesting, the Lesedi Cultural Village tour was very informative with the end dancing extremely energetic and entertaining with the dancers giving 110%. Excellent service and awesome tour. Highly recommended.

Worth it! - Great private tour w/ Shane who gives great info about SA. Cradle site went quickly but still a good place to visit at least once. Lesedi tribe was awesome and its definitely worth paying extra for that delicious traditional meal. Shane also took cool pics of me during the trip.
