    Overview

    This is a private full day Cultural Tour so there will not be any other passengers in the vehicle with you. Although there will be other customers present on the guided tours. This tour takes you deep inside the dark Apartheid past, giving you a first hand account of how it was to live under the old Apartheid Government, and then gives you a glimpse into the future under the new South African Constitution. You will experience the old and the new business centre’s, we will drive into SOWETO and experience a local restaurant with locals. You will visit Nelson Mandela’s house (South African iconic President) to see where and how he lived and then you will drive by the 2010 Soccer World Cup Stadium where the soccer World Cup final was held, before being dropped off back at your hotel.
