Maweza was the most informative guides we could have asked for. His tour came from a place of knowledge and empathy for his community. The best part was meeting the children in the housing community. I wish I had known to bring candy. I had a few pieces from the hotel but there were so many children asking.

Exciting tour with a great guide!
As part of our stay in Johannesburg, we booked this tour as a family of four with two children. Everything worked out well. Our guide Maweza was waiting for us at the meeting point on time. On foot, we went through various stops (including the Hector Pieterson Memorial and Nelson Mandela's house) to the Orlando Towers, where the tour ended. The visit to an informal settlement, where it became clear to us how privileged we live, was absolutely impressive. Also included in the tour was lunch at a snack bar in Soweto. With the Kota burger, we were able to try a classic local dish - very delicious! Many thanks to our great guide Maweza, who explained an incredible amount of detail to us.

Amazing guide, tour needs work
Maweza was an amazing guide. He lives in Soweto and has deep knowledge of the culture, history, and area. The tour itself was not well designed. It was 3-4 hours but could easily have been 45 minutes. We spent a good amount of time seeing a very poor slum community and it was an awkward time because we didn’t do anything to help them but just walked around and saw their small shacks, and then had to deal with souvenir stands and aggressive vendors before continuing on our trip. Our guide was amazing, but the tour needs to be altered.

Fantastic Tour
This tour was fantastic! Lawrence is very knowledgeable and took the time to educate us on South African history and the historical context of Soweto before the tour began. We had the opportunity to visit Nelson Mandela’s home and neighborhoods across the economic spectrum. The history and culture is rich. Lawrence took the time to explain it all and fielded all sorts to questions. Midway through there is a tasty lunch.
Most of the tour is in flat paved roads, so it’s not too strenuous, though one portion is uphill and tough to navigate if you’re out of shape. Otherwise, the walking tour is manageable and totally worth it.
