This was our second tour with Thabelo, and once again he exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, he was punctual, professional, knowledgeable, warm, and incredibly attentive to every detail of our experience. His passion for sharing for Johannesburg’s vibrant culture shines through in everything he shares. He is not only an outstanding guide, but also a wonderful human being—kind, genuine, and deeply committed to his work. Tours by Locals is fortunate to have someone of Thabelo’s caliber on their team. We cannot recommend him highly enough, and we look forward to the next opportunity to tour with him again!

This was an excellent day and excellent tour. Thabelo is a great tour guide, and we learned so much. I would recommend him to anyone, and so wished that we could have spent more time with him, learning about Johannesburg.

Excellent interactive tour with detailed information, realistic replicas, scientifically factual narratives confirming that Africa is the cradle of humankind. Enjoyed it and highly recommend it for those visiting South Africa.

Thabelo was exceptional! He was professional, pleasant and his knowledge was expansive. He provided keen insights at each of the sights we visited and went out of his way to ensure our tour was the best it could be. I would highly recommend Thabelo to anyone considering a tour in this area.

What a wonderful guide! So very flexible and informative.... The first day, he said that the most important thing was that we were happy at the end of the day - and we definitely were! Would recommend him for tours, airport pickup/dropoff and any other of your needs....

Thabelo was very accomodating of my hearing loss, making sure I could always hear him and passing my microphone to other guides. He had cold water for us, with fresh bottles when they we left in the car and got warm. Very personable and shared a lot of history. Highly recommend.
