  • Diepmeadow, 1862, Zuid-Afrika
    There is no way we can do a Soweto tour without taking pictures with the ''welcome to Soweto sign'' really it's a must you need people to actually believe you that you were in Soweto
    15 minutes
  • Diepkloof Park, Soweto, South Africa
    As we drive through Soweto one can not help to notice the major lifestyle contrast next to a big mention you would see a really small house. This just shows that the life of Sowetens is very diverse from one's family income to another to the culture and heritage. As we drive through Diepkloof you will notice the beautiful fancy houses we have actually nicknamed this part of Soweto '' the Beverly Hills of Soweto''
  • Baragwanath, Johannesburg South, 2013, South Africa
    We are now passing through the biggest hospital in Africa Baragwanath hospital. Initially built as a military hospital today Baragwanath hospital is a public hospital that is funded by the South African government, it is one of the best hospitals in Africa definitely not a fancy hospital but it has some of the best specialists in the country.
  • Elias Motsoaledi St, South Africa
    As we get deeper with our Soweto tour we take a quick detour to the informal settlements. The aim of our Soweto tour is to show you the good, the bad and the ugly of the township. One can call the informal settlement ''the ugly of the township''. The informal settlements are the worst living conditions in the township but so rich in love the best smiles I have seen are from the children that live in this informal settlement.
  • Orlando Towers, Soweto, South Africa
    Definitely one of the major highlights of Soweto. These 2 beautifully painted tower draws attraction to the township. It's a must that you stop by and take a picture. They also offer bungee jumping at these towers so if you are an adrenaline junkie this is your place.

Full day tour with Emmah was just wonderful. Picked up on time and shown around the city by someone who knows it inside out - no better way to learn about a new place. The highlights of central Johannesburg were given time for exploration, then on to Soweto, seeing both the highs and lows of the township. Moving and sobering at times, but never less than an honest experience of the township's people and history - capped by a visit to the Hector Pieterson Museum, to learn about the events of the Soweto uprisings. Challenging at times, but an excellent way to learn about the truth of apartheid and its consequences. Emmah was simply superb - friendly, honest and fun throughout the day - I can't thank her enough.

Emmah was amazing. She knows all the most important facts and takes care about her guests. She is very humorous and she does everything to please her guests, even if they want to get street food. It was a great day for us. We felt safe, welcome and admired her patience with us.

This was a very informative tour that provides you with a detailed blueprint of the historical atrocities of the black South Africans. The tour guide Letlhogonolo “Lawrence” Mabasa was very friendly, patient, accommodating and extremely knowledgeable. Lawrence provided additional tidbits of informative insights for each location associated with the tour. I highly recommend this tour and especially Lawrence as the #1 tour guide for a true authentic experience.
