Interesting visit - We stayed at the Radisson in Sandton in Johannesburg, which was well protected and supplied a safe shuttle service (9am to 10.30pm) to the Mall by Mandela Square, which had great shopping and lots of Restaurants. Unfortunately the hotel did not have Baileys at the bar. Our pick up driver from the airport was excellent guide, who advised on the do's and don'ts of daily living in Joburg. We also took a private tour of Soweto which was an eye opener to say the least but we learned so much and felt very safe. Overall we learnt that it is not safe to walk around the city after dark unless with locals or guides.

Joberg and Soweto half day tour - A great introduction to Johannesburg and Soweto. Our guide Pastur picked us up from our hotel and showed us many highlights of the city and was very forthcoming about all the challenges faced locally. His historical knowledge of the history of the city and South Africa is quite amazing.

Knowledgeable, Open and Passionate guide - We had already spent time in Johannesburg so we asked our guide to focus on Soweto and she delivered. Our guide to Soweto (south west township) was amazing, KG was informative, open and passionate. She took time to explain how Soweto came to be, the coexistence of different classes, development of community and the continued struggle of the black population. She answered all of our questions and even arranged a visit to childcare/informal crache so that we could drop off colouring books and crayons etc. Visiting was so eye-opening and heart breaking yet also inspiring. I felt uncomfortable taking some photos yet felt compelled as to show people, and remind myself, of how others are living.

Tour - The guide was amazing! Very informative, answered any questions and stopped for pictures many times. The tour itself was a lot but we touched on so many areas. The half day tour was what we were looking for and this one delivered.
