Tour Overview

About this tour

A combined Apartheid Museum and Soweto tour is one of the most powerful and educational experiences in Johannesburg.

This full day offers deep insight into South Africa's history and culture, taking visitors on a journey from the dark period of apartheid to the country's transition to democracy.

The morning is spent at the world-renowned Apartheid Museum, where carefully curated exhibits trace the rise and fall of segregation. The afternoon moves into Soweto itself — visiting Walter Sisulu Square, Regina Mundi Church, Vilakazi Street, Mandela House Museum and the moving Hector Peterson Memorial.

A traditional African buffet lunch in the heart of Soweto sits at the centre of the day — a chance to slow down, taste authentic township cuisine, and feel the rhythm of community life.
