Culturally Immersive and Informative - The tour brings you through Soweto and along the famous Vilakazi Street. Tshepo was incredibly knowledgeable and informative. It was a last-minute booking and on a holiday, but he made it work.

Iconic tour of Soweto and its exciting nightlife. - This perfectly paced night was filled with electric energy, and we were completely immersed into Soweto's charm. This tour is a very unique way to get a different perspective of Soweto and its iconic and vibrant nightspots.

Only way the experience “the real Soweto” is through this tour. - This tour allows you to bask into the best side of Soweto. We had an absolutely wonderful time with Ntokozo, who definitely elevated our fun to the next level. We got to see the best shebeens/bars in Soweto with him and we are really happy that we booked this tour. This definitely the best night tour that I have ever done.

Incredible tour to see the livelihood of Soweto - MoAfrika recommended this tour to me as a final touch for my tour in the Soweto area and I am happy that I did. This tour offers an insight into the best shebeens that Soweto has to offer. I had a lovely time with my guide Ntokozo, and he was extremely friendly and talkative.

This tour is not to be missed! - Danny was our guide and he made this tour spectacular. I learned so much about Soweto and its night spots. Our transfers between the shebeens were all done in a comfortable and luxurious vehicle and we felt incredibly safe doing this with Danny. MoAfrika checked up on us and we were in constant communication with them.

Wonderful intro to Soweto and its nightlife. - This tour was an unforgettable experience for me and I’m very happy that I made time for this and that MoAfrika recommended it to us. My guide Lesedi was extremely friendly and talkative as well as very knowledgeable about the rich history of Soweto. The vibrant city life is definitely something to experience as well.

Soweto night tour - Our guide picked us up on schedule in a very comfortable car. I was very impressed with how he started the tour....He asked us why we booked this particular tour & what did we already know,what did we want to learn. So based on that we felt we recieved a custom guide. The tour was toinclude stops for drinks at 4 shebeen...we only stopped at 1 drinks and dinner. Of which were very satisfied.as most times we'd spent learning about the terrible years of Apartheid & the rise of activists. Although we toured in evening he made sure we saw alot before it got dark and then using his car lights to help visualize

This was the highlight of our Soweto stay - Definitely one of the best trips/tours I have done in a while and its at the top of our highlights. We were recommended this tour by our friends and it turned out to be a really fun experience. Seeing the city of Soweto at night was an experience that I did not think I needed but I’m glad I did it. The complimentary drinks were a really nice touch.
