Nkululeko - Tour Guide in Johannesburg South

It was defenatly incredible experience. The tour took aprx. 3 hour and it was the most immersive tour to feel real Soweto. If you want understand the real situation and to fell it - this tour is the best for you

Fue realmente una experiencia maravillosa. Poder conocer Soweto de la mano de una local que ha nacido y creció allí, conoce a tantas personas... Fue de verdad un honor poder ver la realidad de este país y no quedarnos siempre en una burbuja. Fue un recorrido SUPER completo y Nonhlanhla fue fantástico, súper cercano, amigable y profesional. Una persona admirable.

Firstly it wasn't Nkululeko who took the tour as was advertised. The tour itself was interesting and took you to the real Soweto with some very thought-provoking history. My suggestion for improvement would be for the guide to have clearer identification, like an umbrella as they do in other places. The meeting point isn't obvious and this would help.

We had an absolutely awesome time on our guided tour today. At first, we were surprised that Nkululeko was not the tour guide, but instead had sent Thabiso, one of his employees, to do the tour with us. Thabiso was an outstanding guide, very knowledgable, but also very funny. He made us feel very safe and comfortable while we toured both the simpler, as well as the more affluent parts of Soweto. He was very patient in answering our questions and took the time to continue the tour even though we were already past the official ending time. One of the many highlights was our shared lunch of authentic Kota together with Thabiso, as well as tasting the Banana flavored beer made in Soweto. We tipped 200 Rand per person, because unfortunately we did not have more cash on us, and only Nkululeko has an electronic payment machine. So be aware that payment by card may not be available before beginning the tour. Overall it was truly and outstanding experience, and we would love to do it again when we come back to Johannesburg!
