Very informative - Great tour, very informative. Great to understand how life in Soweto works and Constitution Hill is fascinating albeit harrowing in places.

Excellent Insight into living in Soweto - We really enjoyed our visit to Soweto, our guide Khutso was excellent. We really appreciated meeting and being guided around one of the Informal camps. It gave us a great insight into the life there

Excellent Soweto Tour - The Full-Day Soweto tour was excellent and our guide Khutso was superb. Lots of in depth knowledge about everything we saw and entertaining stories. Interesting to visit the various settlements of Soweto as well as Orlando Towers. The two museums (Hector Pieterson Museum and Apartheid Museum) were both fascinating. Good lunch - buffet of typical South African dishes - at Sakhumzi near Mandela and Tutu's houses. Fully recommended activity and special thanks to Khutso.

Would use MoAfrika tours for my tours again! - Goodwill our tour guide was amazing. He was very informative and kept everyone happy and content. Visited Soweto, Apartheid Museum, Nelson Mandela House, Tutus house, the Soweto towers and the lunch was worth the price and the Adventure. Would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn the history of these places we visited. MoAfrika tours was very good at communicating via WhatsApp.

It helped us understand. - Visiting Suweto was an eye opener and the Apartheid Museum was excellent. ( I read the book “Mandela, the authorised portrait “ before I went to SA) Also the museum that told the story of the massacre of protesting school children. All museum entries prepaid and an excellent lunch supplied so it was also good value especially as 30% of what we paid goes towards helping people in the poorest part of Suweto where we went for a walk. I recommend you do some reading before going to the Apartheid Museum so as to be familiar with names of the people that were involved and also the main events. This trip and a couple of days in Johannesburg were enough to make me buy a book about how apartheid is still functionally present in South Africa, just in different ways. I recommend that you read “ Mandela” before you go to the apartheid museum

Great experience - Our Guide Thomas picked us up and we discussed what our spec wishes were for the day trip. Besides the fixed items of course Thomas told all kinds of facts during the tour and knew how to answer our questions expertly Beautiful places visited Especially the walking tour through Soweto with a local Guide was impressive...but above all terrible to see the conditions in which the people have to live The Apartheid museum was also to be quiet We didn't finish until 6:30. ( he brought us to our request for a good restaurant to dine - top! )
