History and cultural tourist guide based in Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa. Since 2015, I have been working as a freelance tour guide for many tour companies, taking independent travelers and groups on tours around Johannesburg and nearby provinces. It's very exciting to work in the biggest city of South Africa as a tour guide and tour operator. Johannesburg is a Capital of history & Culture in South Africa, since its independence in 1994 as a democratic country. I have qualified as a tourist guide in 2017 and all these years I have become highly specialized in my area, offering a wide range of products. Private tailor-made history and cultural tours together with unique educational, and wild-life experiences. I also provided tickets for the festivals, concerts, and sports Seasons for travelers who visit South Africa for events. As a tourist guide, I'm responsible for implementing enhanced health and safety measures in line with South African travel protocols. These protocols have been developed to optimize recovery efforts by rebuilding confidence among travelers and ensuring a coordinated approach of the global travel & tourism post-COVID19.

Let's explore Soweto like locals. We will Visit Hector Pieterson on quality rented bikes, visit Nelson Mandela House and interact with the locals. Here the tour starts either in the morning or afternoon. The tour is also suitable for those travelers who have a half-day to explore Soweto Township on bikes and Tuk-Tuks. We will start the morning with early fat-cakes brought from the local shop and go explore the township like a local, interact with locals in the community, and learn how to greet in local languages like Xosa, Sotho, and Zulu. As a professional Tourist Guide, I'll offer clients bike Tours and quality bike rentals to provide travelers or visitors alike with a unique way to see Soweto Townships. Bike and Tuk-Tuk is the best option for fun, interactive bikes and another way of site seeing and interacting with locals in Soweto, Johannesburg!
Here we will spend a half-day exploring the biggest township in Johannesburg. (A) Drive past the City of Johannesburg to Soweto, the most Southern township in Johannesburg. (B) Arrive in Soweto and pick up the rented bikes, the start at a local shop to buy some locally baked cakes. (C) We will head to Hector Petersen Memorial Sites, a guided tour outside the museum. Hector Pieterson's site gives us a demonstration of the 1976 June 16 student uprisings and protests by youth against the Apartheid regime. (D) We will ride to Vilakazi Street, one of the famous streets in the world because it would once be a hotspot for liberation movement activists, like Nelson Mandela, Arch Bishop Desmond Tutu, Winnie Mandela, and Walter Sisulu.
