This was an unforgettable experience with a gem of a tour guide. Enough good things can't be said about Mo and the knowledge he imparted. Be prepared to tip locals at some of the stops. What they add to the experience is totally worth it. Would definitely recommend.

Couldn't have asked for a better Soweto tour. Our guide Mo was very friendly, an absolute fountain of local knowledge, and passionate about giving back to his community. We all learned so much from him and he took really great care of us throughout. Everything on the operator end was very well organised, with good communication throughout. The logistics were smooth and we had a comfy minivan with an AC.
