Welcome to South Africa. Welcome to "Mzansi". Welcome to the, "country of many countries", South Africa. Welcome to the Gauteng Province. Im very much proude of South Africa as this is a country that embrasses different cultures and cultural groups from all over across the world. The Gauteng Province, which is in the heart of the South Africais the home to wonderful museums, game reserves and lots of historical sites. This is where you can get the best introduction of South Africa ranging from culture to nature. I would be more than welcome to host anyone from across the world and show and teach them my love and passion for the the country. South Africans are more welcoming people to all nations. Very open to allowing other people to learn thier cultures too. I love traveling, meeting and engaging with new people always. Tourism is in my blood. I love it when when I'm conducting tour, narating and giving my guests the best of information ever. Iam proud of the guiding knowledge I have and I'm always proud of my guests. All guests are treated with the VIP status. Doing tours with me, is not only about tours but finding the hidden germs of the country. With me, you have found the right source of interest and information. Welcome to South Africa! Soon after completing my grade 12, I qualified to register at a collage for hospitality. I trained as a tourist guide. I also did my first aid there. I'm a proffessional tourist guide. I have a valid guiding licence. Code 10 driving licence with PDP. Valid first aid certificate. Limitations can be in some private game reserves whereby they have their own and full-time guides

The Johannesburg, Apertheid museum and Soweto tour is a very interesting tour for anyone coming into the Gauteng Province. You will learn about our history, culture and the birth and fascinating history of Johannesburg. Johannesburg is a world class city and once a glittering city or the place of Gold. A drive through the affluent suburbs will give you a good insight of the difference between the rich and the poor. The Apartheid museum will definately reveal to you how bad the system of seggregation was on the so called none whites. The apartheid museum reveals and showcases the hardships that the none whites experienced. The township of Soweto has a fascinating history of this country. A township which was the heart of the struggle against aparthied. The home to some very famouus people. In Soweto, you also learn about the different cultural groups living in the township.

Thabelo was amazing, personable, and so knowledgeable. Highly recommend
Our experience with Thabelo was easy and wonderful from start to finish. He was quick to respond and always helpful during the booking process and prior to the tour. Not only that, but he was willing to go the extra mile and held on to our luggage and drop us off at the airport. Our day with Thabelo was truly one of the most meaningful experience of our time in Johannesburg, South Africa. We toured Constitution Hill, the Apartheid Museum, and Soweto. Having Thabelo as our guide brought each place to life in a way we never could have experienced on our own. Thabelo is incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and genuinely kind. He even set up guides at the museum, so he could stay with the car due to our luggage. He also paid some people to watch the car and luggage at spots to show and teach us about certain areas. His deep understanding of South Africa’s history, combined with his personal insights from growing up here made this a deeply moving and unforgettable experience. He answered every question thoroughly, shared so much meaningful context, and never made us feel rushed. By the end of the day, we felt like we had not only seen these historic places, but understood them on a deeper level. We feel so fortunate to have found Thabelo, and we cannot imagine experiencing Johannesburg any other way. If you are considering a tour in Johannesburg, we highly recommend Thabelo. Thank you, Thabelo, for a day we will never forget.
