Tres bonne visite de Soweto d'une journee en van. Nombreux arrets et explications, le guide est pro, interessant, attentif et agreable. Une journee qui marque, riche d'informations et d'emotions. - Isabelle


We had an amazing day discovering Soweto and its history and culture. We took the full day tour with the Apartheid Museum included. The guide was amazing! It felt very safe, we learnt a lot. We particularly liked the visit to the educational centre and the local food we had at lunch! Everything was well organised and we didn't feel forced to buy anything. Many thanks!! - Melaine


The Soweto tour was amazing. Eco is a fantastic guide. He is very friendly and knowledgeable about the neighborhood and its history. His information and commentary are very accurate and complete. Highlights of the tour include: Hector Pieterson Memorial, Mandela's house, Apartheid Museum. Make the one day tour, it's worthy! - Paulo


It was great to visit Soweto, this city that defined ALL of what I understood of South Africa as an American born in the 80's. Ecko is an amazing guide and his story telling and passion added to the tour in a way that makes you want to stay in touch to help further the goals of the org. Definitely recommend this tour and tip my hat to Ecko! - Olivia


Fantastic tour! Eco was knowledgable and able to show us around Soweto. We had the opportunity to meet and chat with the local community about their experiences and the lunch at Lebo's was fantastic. I would highly recommend. - Ali
