Information

Soweto is known for its vibrant culture, rich history, and its key role in South Africa's journey to freedom. This walking tour offers you an immersive experience in the heart of this iconic city, with the opportunity to explore the bustling streets, meet the locals, and enjoy the local cuisine with a native Soweto guide.

Our tour begins at the Hector Peterson Memorial, where you will learn about the significance of the 1976 Soweto Uprising, a pivotal moment in the Apartheid system. We will then walk down Moema Street, retracing the steps of the historic march. Continuing along Vilakazi Street, we will visit Nelson Mandela’s house, where you will have 20 minutes to explore the place where he lived until his 27 years in prison (entrance fee not included).

Next, we will stop at Desmond Tutu’s house, another landmark in Soweto’s history. After this visit, we will enjoy a delicious lunch at a local shop.

After lunch, we will take a minibus taxi to Orlando East, where you can experience local transportation to the famous Soweto Towers. Our final stop will be at an informal settlement called Nomzamo Park, where you will gain insight into the daily life of many Soweto residents.
