Nadat we zijn opgehaald, gaan we naar Constitutional Hill in Braamfontein voor een rondleiding door deze iconische instelling. Constitution Hill is een levend museum dat het verhaal van South . vertelt Afrika's reis naar democratie. De site is een voormalige gevangenis en militair fort dat getuigt van het turbulente Zuid-Afrika Verleden. Tegenwoordig is het de thuisbasis van het Grondwettelijk Hof van het land, dat onderschrijft de rechten van alle burgers. Onderweg steken we de opvallende Mandelabrug over naar binnen Johannesburg CBD. Genoemd ter ere van Nelson Mandela, de 284 meter lange brug is de grootste tuibrug in South Afrika en verbindt twee belangrijke zakendistricten.
We steken de opvallende Mandela-brug over op weg naar Newtown. Genoemd ter ere van Nelson Mandela, de 284 meter lange brug is de grootste tuibrug in South Afrika en verbindt twee belangrijke zakendistricten. Het Mary Fitzgerald-plein in Newtown, Johannesburg in Zuid-Afrika is een openbare ruimte die is vernoemd naar Mary "Pickhandle" Fitzgerald, die wordt beschouwd als de eerste vrouwelijke vakbondsman in het land.
De volgende stop is het Apartheidsmuseum. Het is een-van- zijn soort museum dat Zuid-Afrika laat zien in de turbulente jaren van het apartheidstijdperk. Het museum illustreert de opkomst en ondergang van apartheid door middel van een reeks van 22 individuele tentoonstellingen die je meenemen op een emotionele reis van de hartverscheurende strijd voor vrijheid en gelijkheid tot het ultieme hoogtepunt van de verkiezing van Nelson Mandela, de eerste zwarte president van Zuid-Afrika. Het is middag als we het Apartheidsmuseum bezoeken. Jij kan iets te eten en te drinken in het Truth Café (op eigen kosten)
Op weg naar Soweto komen we langs het National Football Stadium City, waar de openings- en slotceremonies van het WK 2010 plaatsvonden.
We verlaten het museum om ongeveer 14.00 uur en gaan op weg naar Soweto, langs beroemde bezienswaardigheden zoals de FNB Soccer Stadium, Baragwanath Hospital en de enorme Soweto Towers.
Onze eerste stop in Soweto is bij de informele nederzetting Motsoaledi. Loop met je gids door de straten langs straatcafés en ambachtelijke markten naar een buurthuis dat MoAfrika sponsort. Begroet en ontmoet de mensen in de nederzetting en leer meer over hun manier van leven

Het Hector Pieterson Museum is een groot museum in Orlando West, Soweto, Zuid-Afrika, twee blokken verwijderd van waar Hector Pieterson op 16 juni 1976 werd neergeschoten en vermoord.
We banen ons een weg door de levendige Vilakazi Street, langs iconische monumenten en de huizen van Nelson en Winnie Mandela en aartsbisschop Desmond Tutu.
In Orlando West bezoeken we Vilakazi Street - rijden langs het voormalige huis van Nelson Mandela en langs het huis van aartsbisschop Desmond Tutu.

Our guide was amazing, nice, knowledgeable and accommodating. Lunch was a buffet, museums were good, lots of history and information. Soweto is educational, where you meet Jack and walk the free housing, take some goodies for the children of the daycare, they are very sweet! Pick up and drop off were seamless!
My wife and I just completed this tour of Johannesburg and Soweto. Our tour guide (Lepo) was fantastic. He personalized the tour for what we wanted to experience. We toured the former prison which was an extremely moving experience. The amount of history that we didn't know was amazing. We went to downtown Johannesburg and learned about the gold mining industry and viewed numerous historic sights. From there we spent over two hours going through the Apartheid Museum. This was absolutely shocking and the highlight of the tour. Very well worth every minute. Lepo gave us the entire tour of the museum. He is extremely knowledgeable in his countries history. From the museum we drove over to Soweto and viewed Nelson Mandela's Home and drove around all the historic areas. I highly recommend this tour when you visit Johannesburg.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Khutso and Pollen as our guides. They were knowledgeable, insightful, and provided detailed explanations throughout the tour, making every stop meaningful and engaging. What made the experience even more special was their initiative in arranging an impromptu visit to one of the Soweto childcare centres, which gave us a deeper understanding of the local community and its inspiring work. The Soweto visit itself was excellent—well-organized, informative, and truly memorable. Khutso and Pollen’s passion, professionalism, and warm hospitality made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. We genuinely enjoyed every moment and would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic and enriching Soweto experience. Thank you, Khutso and Pollen, for making our visit so special!

My guide, Carson. And MoAfrica tours were fantastic. This was definitely one of the highlights of my trip to South Africa. There was a LOT of history, and some of it quite heavy. Carson really was a wealth of information but I really appreciated his pacing. He answered all of my questions (and there were many); but also gave me time at the various locations to go at my own pace, and also reflect and absorb. I appreciated the planning and attention to logistics. From the Constitutional Court to the Apartheid Museum to the Hector Pieterson Museum, there was a lot covered. I finished the tour wanting to learn more about South Africa and appreciating things so much more.
