I booked Pretoria, Soweto and Apartheid museum full day tour via African Moja tour. We communicate easily with rapid responsive. My tour guide; Marvin was so informative, polite and care about us. He always smile and willing to answer every questions. He was also punctual and best in managing the time. I suggest to use African Moja tour and Marvin.

Fantastic tour of Soweto and the Apartheid Museum

Our guide, Marvin, was excellent. He had a terrific grasp of his subject providing interesting, relevant and detailed information about the City, Soweto, the museum and every topic we chose to explore. Thoroughly recommend Marvin as your guide.

Great tour with an exceptional guide!

A very informative tour. Our guide, Marvin, was professional and extremely knowledgeable. He made the trip fun and was never boring. He is the most genuine guide I have encountered.

An emotional day with history

Marvin is an excellent guide. With hia deep knowledge and sosial approach to teaching history you will be engaged and feel the emotion of the history South Africa has. Furthermore the journey through the day felt relaxed, and there were always room for asking question but more so to share laughs and life experience. This is why through Marvin you will have a day you will remember.

Great tour; bad communication between Viator and local company

The good: our guide Mike was terrific, and the tour covered a lot of what we were interested to see and hear. The bad: there was some kind of miscommunication between Viator and the local tour company so Mike showed up two hours early and when he took us to a restaurant for lunch it was NOT covered for us as the Viator listing had claimed.

Great introduction to South Africa

Gabriel was wonderful. Sympathetic and accommodating when there was a slight mixup in pickup time from the hotel. Had a wonderful private tour. Added a lot of info at Apartheid Museum, then let me spend some time on my own exploring. Eye opening driving tour of Soweto, three areas"Beverley Hills, East and West Orlando". Stop at Desmond Tutu's house, tour of Nelson Mandela's house, walk along Valansky Street, great buffet lunch at Sakhumzi. Saw many sites important in the fight against Apartheid. Amazing first day in South Africa with Gabriel who was full of information and great company!

Johannesburg: The struggle of a people against racial segregation presented on a tour through the paths of Mandela.

Marvin, our local guide, was extremely punctual, attentive, didactic. Private vehicle for 4 people, which provided agility to the city tour. We could learn a little about the sad recent history of apartheid.
