    Overview

    A day tour of Soweto township offers you the chance to experience the heart and soul of a busy city within a city. Learn the history culture and the vibrant lifestyle of Soweto. Soweto was created in the 1930s, with Orlando the first township established. In the 1950s, more black people were relocated there from black spots in the inner city- black neighbourhoods which the apartheid government had reserved for whites. Soweto's growth was phenomenal - but unplanned.
