This tour was a disappointment from the beginning. I was to be picked up at noon and messaged the tour agent to make sure they were coming and got no reply. After fifteen minutes I messaged them again and still got no reply. I then called them and the person who answered said there would be someone there to pick me up. Over an hour went by before someone came and then it was almost two hours after the original pick up time. Apparently he had just been called to come. We did see the monument (Which most areas were closed to the public that day) and walked around the Nelson Mandela statue but when when we got to the Kruger museum it was already closed for the day as we were so late. None of the other spots that are mentioned on the website were offered for me to go see. For me it was a very wasteful day and very poor value for the price I paid for the tour.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

We are very sorry to hear that you had a terrible service. I will raise the matter with the operations team. We will strive to do better next time.

Fantastic Tour of Pretoria

Thabang is an excellent tour guide. He explained the history and importance of Pretoria, while we were visiting the sights in the city. I also learnt a lot about life in South Africa today. Highly recommended.
