Overview

    This is simply the best tour of Soweto, guided by the famous JoburgPlaces Chief Storyteller & Guide, Charlie Moyo. It will provide you with a thorough understanding of Soweto, as well as the history and legacy of apartheid.

    Anyone visiting Joburg must certainly visit Soweto at least once. The Southwestern Township has a legendary reputation for the way its people resisted apartheid, especially during the 1976 Youth Uprising. Today Soweto is a mesmerizing and somewhat thriving part of Joburg, but still fighting the all-to-clear legacy of Apartheid.
