The Experience

We give you an opportunity to learn about the liberation struggle in South Africa and the culture of black people in townships, by combining the Soweto and Apartheid museum tours. In Soweto, we drive through Diepkloof Extension, hostels, and family units, pass Baragwanath hospital, squatter camps/ informal settlements, and Orlando Towers on our way to the Popular attraction-Vilakazi Street where Mandela house is situated. At Apartheid Museum you do the tour of a series of 22 individual exhibitions that include film footage, Photographs, Text panels, and Artefacts depicting how Apartheid affected the people of South Africa. Apartheid museum is also a beacon of hope, you learn how South Africa is coming to terms with its oppressive past and working towards a future that all South Africans can call their own. You also do the tour of Mandela exhibition where Mandela's extraordinary life is explored through seven themes: CHARACTER, COMRADE, LEADER, PENSIONER, NEGOTIATOR, and STATESMAN.
