Soweto and Johannesburg Exclusive Full Day Guided Tour

Matt_N, Jun 2026

Tsholo did a fantastic...

Tsholo did a fantastic job guiding us throughout Joburg. He was easy to understand, was able to answer all questions, and super informative at all the itinerary. He did an amazing job giving an abridged tour through the apartheid museum cause we were short on time. Highly recommend this tour for its stops and overview of Joburg

Johannesburg City Tour(Half-day)

Denise_T, Jun 2026

Very good insight into Johannesburg....

Only the two of us on this tour - we were taken to all the points of interest and some places we would not have been able to visit if alone as not particularly safe... Saw Constitution Hill, Prison visit, Mandela Square etc Good tour and would recommend

Taste of Africa Food tasting Experience

David_C, Jun 2026

Central Johannesburg Culture through food with Jo

It was an intimate experience hearing stories of inner Johannesburg, its mixed ethnicity and then tasting foods from 4 cultures. (Plus beer) I thoroughly enjoyed it. Jo was knowledgeable and showed us highlights as well as explaining how the Maboneng area has had its ups, downs and now more ups.

With a transit stop in Johannesburg this is a perfect way to get a good and quick understanding about Johannesburg and the history. My guide Kgaogelo was funny and have a lot of knowledge about the city, and it was a safe trip even driving through some of the not so nice are in Johannesburg

Full Day Ultimate Pilanesberg National Park Safari from Johannesburg or Pretoria

DONNA_A, May 2026

Amazing animal viewings in the most spectacular location

Amazing experience. The transfer from our hotel to the game reserve was on time and flawless. The BBQ lunch overlooking the lake was stunning. However the show was stolen by the animal viewings. As soon as we drove through the park, there were two lions walking on the road towards us and we were the first vehicle there so had the most amazing views. This was followed up with hippos, wilderbeast, rhino, giraffe, zebra, elephant and many many more. What more could you ask for. The scenery was spectacular. A truly memorable experience

Half Guided Day Tour of Soweto And Apartheid Museum

MarieLouise_V, Apr 2026

Highly recommend this half day tour

Our tour was a really good way of learning more about the history and hardships of the people of South Africa. We only had a day in Johannesburg so this tour was perfect! Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and answered all the questions we had. Parts of the tour are incredibly sad but it is essential to learn what happened. Can highly recommend this tour.

Lion & Safari Park

William_B, Apr 2026

Perfect Safari Experience for First Timers and the Cautious

The Lion and Safari Park was the perfect experience for us, especially given that my girlfriend has a real phobia of animals. This was a great way to ease into it without feeling overwhelmed. From the start, everything was well organized. Our driver picked us up and gave us an outstanding overview on the way, setting the tone for the day. Once we arrived, our guide took over and did an excellent job. Knowledgeable, engaging, and made the entire experience comfortable and enjoyable. We were able to see a wide range of animals in a controlled, safe environment, which made all the difference. It gave us the opportunity to experience the wildlife without the intensity of a full safari. For me, it was a great introduction and definitely confirmed that I will be back for a full safari experience next time I’m in South Africa. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a well run, informative, and accessible wildlife experience.

Isabella_W, Apr 2026

What a great experience!

The Lion Park was worth every penny! If you’re able to go on a feeding day it makes the trip that more spectacular and exciting. I got to witness 3 feedings (Lions, Cheetahs and African Dogs), other encounters included black leopard, Ostrich, Giraffes (which I got to feed), lots of other animals.

Two day Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg

Kathryn_Y, Feb 2026

A must-see from Johannesburg!

Wow! Just wow! Logistics getting out to Kruger were wonky, but the great customer service efforts made it work for me. Once there, the arrival at the glamping tents and subsequent 4 hrs evening tour were awesome! Dinner afterwards was scrumptious! Next day 9hr day tour (like 350 kilometers!) with breaks for breakfast and lunch, was even more outstanding. The close-ups of all the animals and how many different ones we saw were SO amazing! The mountains! The views! MJ was the day tour guide and he was terrific and SO knowledgeable! I can't say enough great things. In two days you see the min, but wish there was a 3 day option. But two days good, you see the animals you have dreamt of!

Soweto /Johannesburg and Apartheid Museum Guided Full Day Tour

Murali_K, Dec 2025

Excellent tour of apartheid history

The day tour of Johannesburg and Soweto apartheid history was informative, educational and moving. The tour guide and driver, Gabriel, was very good in explaining everything and answering my questions. The guides at Lilies Leaf farm house and Constitution Hill were also thorough in showing us the horrific history of apartheid and how the political prisoners were treated in humanely. The visit to Mandela's first house, and the houses of different classes of people living in Soweto were also educational. Overall, it was a very good tour and I highly recommend it.

Great tour with Pastor

We took a tour and pastor was our driver and guide. He picked us up and dropped us off from our hotel. He gave us a great tour and was so knowledgeable about the places and events that occurred. When we mentioned that we would be interested in going to cradle of civilization, he checked if there were still tickets but unfortunately there were none left. We appreciated his efforts to check for us.

Full Day Exquisite Pilanesberg Safari from Johannesburg

Pamela_S, Oct 2025

Best Adventure!

Booked the Full Day Exquisite Safari from Johannesburg...it was the perfect beginning to our adventures in Africa! Jason took care of everything for us. Our pickup and hotel drop-off was seamless and on time. The van was comfortable, the driving superb, and Jason's commentary was both thoughtful and helpful. The safari was amazing - we saw 3 of the Big 5 (lions, elephants, rhinos) as well as zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, hippos, impala, and kudu. And don't get me started about the many beautiful birds! Two game drives and lunch as well as all travel was included...the experience was reasonably-priced and extremely valuable!
