Absolutely fantastic experience. The ONLY way to see all the major sites. We were on a tight schedule and wanted to see all the major sights in and around J’berg and wanted to briefly see Pretoria. All other agencies said this was not possible in one day. However after going to the tourist info point on Nelson Mandela square we were contacted by this company. We were picked up promptly the next morning by Shaun in a great comfortable SUV. Shaun was extremely knowledgeable and he took us to all the major sights in jberg along with Soweto and even managed to take us all the way to Pretoria in rush hour. He never rushed us, in fact he offered more time to us than originally agreed. He even stopped of at an the Vortrekker monument without our knowledge, offering spectacular panoramic views over Pretoria. Always felt safe with him even in the slightly ‘dodgy’ areas of jberg, his driving was excellent and very hospitable. This is highly recommended. He even went to the trouble of posting my sunglasses on to the western cape when I left them in his car by accident. Superb. Thank you Demjaniyonsietsebanghanro

It was a wonderful experience. Had the opportunity witness first hand narration of the history behind apartheid and also walked true the beautiful streets of Vilakazi Soweto. Our tour guide made it more fun with his cordial and friendly interactions.

As a solo Traveller in Soweto, I think i felt highly confident, thanks to Shaun...wow what a lovely experience, the people are so friendly and welcoming, but what I loved most was the information and the rich history about the place. Thank you so much sociolite tours.
