Omg. This was the best tour, and our tour guide Bianla was absolutely the best. We saw some much of Jburg and Soweto. I highly recommend using this tour company.

We enjoyed a full day private tour of Johannesburg and Soweto. Our guide was Mo and we were pleased to spend our day with him. He was extremely knowledgeable and engaging. It was wonderful to learn so much about the history and politics of this region. Our visit to Soweto and the Kliptown Youth Program was very rewarding. Thank you Mo, for teaching us so much!

A great way to get the many facets of Johannesburg in one day. Mo was a great guide telling many interesting facts about the city and the different places we visited.

Had a great time at Lesedi Cultural Village. We were picked up from our accommodation by John, our guide, who was great. He was very friendly and gave us lots of information en route to the village. At the village he accompanied us throughout our visit ensuring we didn't miss anything. We were greeted with a lovely musical welcome. The drumming interaction was great and we had a guide who showed and explained about 5 different tribes. We were then given a great African drumming and dance show. After this we had lunch which was an amazing buffet. We were then driven back to our accommodation by John. We had a lovely experience and couldn't thank John enough who was an amazing guide.

Stephenson Adventures provided an amazing experience. Mo is an amazing guide and driver! The knowledge of the city and country is unbelievable. You won’t have any questions unanswered. He gave an honest balanced guide to South Africa’s history and a glimpse into its resilient future.

Wonderful Tour. Had the opportunity to see, experience, and learn the history which embraced the hard truths, rich culture, resilience and hope of the people of Johannesburg and Soweto!! Special shout out to Mo, leaving no stone unturned in this great tour experience. Peace and thank you!

Excellent tour to see Johannesburg easily and safely in 1 day. The part where we went into the township for a few min with a special guide was particularly impactful. One thing I would change is that tourist trap restaurant that every tour including this one goes in Soweto for a lunch buffet--it's simply not good. However don't feel pressured to do the buffet-- you CAN ask for the a la carte menu (although in the end I ended up doing the buffet anyway)

We had a great time with a lot of really interesting information of the history of South Africa. Our great guide Tsholo was very informative! Thanx!

Sehr gut geführter Tour! Our guide Banele was really giving us a lot of information & showed us very interesting things! 👍🏻

We had 1 day to spend in Johannesburg and this was the way to see it all. We throughly enjoyed our time with Mo as he toured us all over Johannesburg & educated us about the history & politics of the region. It was very eye opening! He picked us up at our hotel in a comfortable van—he is an excellent driver! We visited all areas of the city—the affluent areas as well as the very poor areas. We had lunch at a fun local spot on the same street where Nelson Mandela lived. We saw prisons & museums—a very full day. I highly recommend this tour!

An excellent tour to grasp an understanding of the history of South Africa, apartheid, and the process to end it. John was a great guide and kept everything moving on time.

I had the most amazing experience! Our tour guide John was so knowledgeable and answered all questions we had. The way he spoke of the history and events of South Africa was super engaging. He was very friendly and passionate about everything, made the day even better!

My partner and I chose the Stevenson company for a full-day guided tour in Johannesburg and Soweto on March 1, 2025. Our guide was waiting for us at the scheduled time with a smile. He made us board the ultra-clean van and made sure we were comfortable, regularly checked to see if we had any questions. He was very kind and attentive in assisting us throughout the day and informing us as we went along about the history, social and political context. He proved to be an experienced guide, very well informed and happy to answer all our questions throughout the day. He is also an excellent driver, we felt safe. The only small downside that we would like to mention in a constructive spirit is the stop for a short visit to a home in Sowero (Township). We were surprised because our guide had not forwarned us (or we missed this information). Since this was a kind of sponsorship, we made a donation and left a tip to the man who showed us around. So far, it was okay… After, when we couldn’t see our guide anywhere, the man in charge of the tour invited us to cross the street to see his colleagues who were selling souvenirs… We felt trapped and forced to buy from each of them; you can tell us that it’s our problem, that we didn’t have to, but honestly, we were completely overwhelmed by this misery, poverty and courage of these people. We imagine that this was the goal so that we would be more inclined to buy… Our guide showed up, we told him that we had no more cash ZAR (as if this was known we would of made arrangements to bring more) and then, magic, we learned that we could pay by card… In short, all we would have appreciated is a little more transparency in advance (as systematically done for all the other visits planned during this day.) That being said, we recommend without hesitation this company for the quality of the tour Thank you

I really enjoyed my day in Pretoria with Tsholo. He knew a lot about the history and all the places we visited and I felt safe at all times. I highly recommend the tour with him!

Our tour guide Tsholo was the best. He knew history and took us safely to all important spots. He was helpful and polite as well. Our trip went smooth, was enjoyable and we were on time.
