Super Pretoria and Cullinan tour with a great guide - We took a Pretoria City and Cullinan Mine trip with MoAfrika with Ali as our guide. We had a great day at all of the locations and the best part was Ali’s knowledge and insights both on South African history and on what it’s like to live in South Africa at this time. He really brought the day to life, particularly when we got back to the city. The mine tour was very interesting and Cullinan itself, while small, is quirky and interesting. We’d highly recommend this tour, especially if Ali is your guide.

One good way to enjoy South Africa. - I deemed this tour as necessary since I will be in South Africa and don’t know when I can be back. I had a package tour with a company but they were not offering ample time or itinerary to visit interesting places in either Johannesburg or Pretoria so I decided to come two days ahead of the tour to be able to see these two places. I got MoAfrica for a full day in Pretoria and Diamond Mine . And it was really a wise decision to contract them to see Pretoria. Our guide Pule was so eager to show us around and give historical account of every place we visited. The Voortrekker Monument is a sight to behold. This company is highly recommended.

Good day out - MoAfrica seem very effecient. They contacted me by sms and telephone to confirm the pick up time which was reassuring as l had booked months ago. I wouldnt hesitate to book with this company again. The car was comfortable and clean. Mark, our guide, was very friendly and we learnt many interesting facts. Mark also spoke a little French which my husband was very pleased about being just a French speaker. I was a little disappointed with the mining tour as you didnt see very much. I'm still glad that l went though. The tour was conducted by someone from the mining company. Luckily we went on a working day so we did see the conveyor belt and the shaft bringing up the mined rocks win action. Pretoria was very interesting. It's a shame that due to the social situation its no longer safe to walk around but Mark pointed out some interesting buildings as we drove by. We were, of course, able to get out of the car to visit the main attractions. An interesting and enjoyable day had by all.

Great Tour - Our tour guide, Knutson, was very friendly and very knowledgeable about the sites we visited. The Dutch Memorial was very informative. The Kruger house was fascinating. Carol was the guide at the diamond mine and was able to discuss the mine’s history and operation.

A very pleasant way to visit Pretoria! - We enjoyed this tour as it took us to see all the historical monuments of Pretoria. Tsholo, our guide, was just excellent. He communicated us the history of every visited place with much passion and great information. We enjoyed and learned a lot about this beautiful city.

Culinan and Pretoria enlightenment - Amazing day with Sunny my guide for this experience. We started at the Culinan Diamond mine where I was given a tour if the fully operational mine. Unfortunately we were unable to go underground, but the history, layout and knowledge of the guide was extremely interesting. From there we went to Pretoria and shown the Union Building, Kruger Museum and eventually the Voortrekker Monument. Great views, great knowledge gathered and a super introduction to why South Africa is the way that it is... I was lucky enough to have 1:1 guidance all day from Sunny. Hats off to him and the team for a great day.
