Description

An Exploration of South Africa and its vast major points of Interest located in Johannesburg, Soweto, and the Apartheid museum.
This tour provides a fantastic opportunity to take a closer look at South Africa's turbulent past, by combining a drive through Soweto with a visit to the Apartheid Museum, regarded as the pre-eminent museum in the world dealing with 20th century South Africa, at the heart of which is the story of apartheid. The Museum opened its doors in 2001 and here visitors can embark on a historical voyage of discovery, a personal exploration of the past that examines apartheid right up to the first democratic elections held in 1994. The tour of the museum, accompanied by your guide, lasts approximately two hours and thirty minutes.

Your guide will follow a route that takes you past all the major points of interest, including the Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital, Baragwanath taxi rank, Regina Mundi church, Hector Peterson Memorial, and Nelson Mandela's former house.

During this tour, you may ask your tour guide for a local cuisine recommendation to stop by and grab a bite to eat. (Food is not included with the tour package.) After this tour, your tour guide will proceed to drop you off at the set drop-off point to conclude the journey.
