Great Experience! - What a day with our guide Gabriel, just the three of us! Moving, thought provoking, educational, and enjoyable. Wonderful to know I selected a tour company that focuses on working with young boys in Kliptown, helping them develop a business to help themselves.

Thought provoking and inspirational - Gabriel was an excellent guide, providing cultural insights and historical information. The day was thought provoking and inspirational. Would highly recommend to others who appreciate the intimacy of a small group experience. “Sawu bona” - a Zulu greeting!

Not a tour, a Soweto immersion - Gilda and Gabriel took us on an amazing, unrepeatable day around Soweto. The exceptional relationships that Gilda has cultivated give her guests an utterly unique, real, vibrant experience. From Vilakazi street to the local family in their yard to the exceptional boys Kliptown, Gilda will open you to an unforgettable experience. If you want to really immerse yourself in Soweto don’t miss this exceptional opportunity.

Enlightening experience - The entire tour was very informative. We loved the authenticity. Meeting the families and children was enlightening. Someone actually pleasantly invited us into her home. Highly recommended if you want to experience the true Soweto.

Interesting and different tour. - Incredible opportunity to see the real Soweto life. Gilda and Gabriel were excellent guides and brought the area to life enabling us to go to places where most tour companies would not go.

Soweto Tour Review - The tour was amazing. Gilda is very connected to people and culture. The most memorable segment was the immersion into the history of Soweto, and the beauty of the Joburg spirit. I hosted 14 family members and will never forget this tour.

A once in a lifetime experience! - Gilda is an extraordinary guide. She gave us deep insight into the people and history of Soweto, which changed my entire experience of this country. We saw sights and locations (Mandela's home, KlipTown, etc) through the eyes of people who live there, whose stories are remarkable. As a result of Gilda's guidance, we instantly felt at home, at ease, connected to the joy and strength of this community. Do not miss this opportunity!

Touching tour - Hearing stories from the locals give such a great additional layer of emotion which I have didn’t get from previous tours I did in Soweto. Gilda is so engaged and committed to the people in Soweto.
