· The rate: R509 per adult, R280 per child or the family combo at R1298 which includes 2 adults and 2 kids passes.
· The tour: Enjoy a full day on board with us, plus a 2-hour extension tour of Soweto, which has been dubbed "Africa's New York." Soweto is an acronym derived from the first letters of the words "south western township" during apartheid. Over two million people live in Soweto, with homes ranging from extravagant mansions to makeshift shacks. Soweto is a city of business and cultural exchange. It is a popular tourist destination, with attractions such as Kliptown (where the Freedom Charter was drafted), former President Nelson Mandela's home, the Hector Petersen Memorial site, local ethnic restaurants, and shopping malls. Explore the attractions of the city where Nelson Mandela lived and Mahatma Gandhi began his law career. Once onboard the double-decker sightseeing bus, listen to the audio narration to learn about Johannesburg's history. We then move to our smaller vehicles where we take a tour of the city's historic neighbourhoods and explore unique attractions, many of which are tied to the anti-apartheid movement. Hear about two of the twentieth century's most well-known liberation heroes in the city where their legal and political careers began.
