Brilliant shanty town tour - This was absolutely one of the best day tours I've ever experienced. Our guide, Roland, was an outstanding companion and conversationalist, and a wealth of information about the areas we visited. We walked through a great local market, where we bought some food, which we brought to the home of a lovely woman and her young son. Not only was it touching and fascinating to learn about her life, but I was pleased that the company brought her groceries and approached the visit in a respectful manner. If you want to better understand a neighborhood that is rarely seen by tourists, you should definitely take this tour.
