Johannesburg: Soweto, Mandela Museum & Apartheid Tour

Discover the history of South Africa on a half-day tour of Johannesburg and Soweto. Visit the Nelson Mandela Museum, the Hector Peterson Memorial, and Constitution Hill.
Begin your day with a pickup from your accommodation in Johannesburg. Meet your guide, assistant, and driver, and discuss your planned day, including any special requests or needs.

Cross over the striking Mandela Bridge on your way into Johannesburg CBD. Named in honor of Nelson Mandela, the 284-meter-long bridge is the largest cable-stayed bridge in South Africa and links two significant business districts.

As you hit the road headed to Soweto, listen to your guide share the history of the city and monumental landmarks along the way. Upon arrival in Soweto, stop at the ReaVaya bus station (Diepkloof) for an introduction to Soweto and its history.

Next, pick up your bike and cycle around the streets of Orlando, learning about the area’s history. Stop for lunch and taste some local cuisine. Then, head to Vilakazi Street, where you’ll find the Nelson Mandela Museum, Hector Peterson Memorial Museum, and Desmond Tutu’s house. Browse local vendors selling African handcrafted accessories, such as bracelets, necklaces, and caps.

Continue to learn about Apartheid history, where you’ll learn about the entire scope of events that took place during the apartheid era. Then, make your way to Constitutional Hill in Braamfontein for a guided tour of this iconic institution.

Constitution Hill is a living museum that tells the story of South Africa’s journey to democracy. The site is a former prison and military fort that bears testament to South Africa’s turbulent past. Today, it’s home to the country’s Constitutional Court, which endorses the rights of all citizens.
