Soweto On foot Experiences

Lebo aka Rambo, or as we affectionately called him the Prince of Soweto, was amazing! We met him on a food tour and he told us about Soweto, so we booked a tour with him the following day. He was super knowledgeable and gave us a deeper look into the history and culture of Soweto. He took us to places no other tour group went, so we really got a local’s view of the area. He put us on to some great South African beer and braai, and we swapped stories and laughs the entire time. Other than the tour, Lebo is a great guy, super kind and funny and passionate about showing visitors the true South Africa. When visiting Johannesburg, support a local business and get to know an awesome guy by booking a tour with Soweto on Foot. We miss you already! Love, Megan & Anthony

We had an amazing experience with Soweto on Foot! Lebo was a fantastic local guide who took us on a truly authentic journey to discover the history and soul of Soweto. He shared personal stories, historical context, and insights that you simply wouldn’t get on a regular tour. He is incredibly knowledgeable, passionate about his community, and at the same time very friendly and easy to talk to. We felt welcomed and completely immersed in the experience. If you want to understand Soweto beyond the surface and see it through the eyes of someone who truly belongs there, we highly recommend this tour.

We wanted to visit Soweto with a guide that is part of the community. Lebo was the right guide for us. Walking around in in Soweto, see the places everybody talks about but more important also the not so polished parts. Lebo described the culture and history of Soweto setting everything in the right context. We also tried some food that were really amazing. Soweto on foot is the right way to experience Soweto. One can also be picked up and dropped of at the hotel which makes it convenient.

Recommended tour. Lebo is a highly knowledgeable guide who will explain and help you fully experience the past and recent history of Soweto. In addition to his knowledge and explanations, he is available to answer questions and queries. Tours can be found at much higher prices, with much lower quality.

Lebo knew everyone and every corner of Soweto, took me to places I definitely wouldn’t have found on my own. He was flexible with time and the route and even came to pick up me at the hostel so we could go by public transportation. Really friendly and attentive. It was an amazing experience, I truly recomend it for those who wants to get to know more than Mandela house.

We had a wonderful experience with Lebo showing us around his township of Soweto. He is very passionate about sharing the history. We had an enjoyable day and would highly recommend this walking tour. Thanks Lebo.

We had an absolutely unforgettable day with Lebo in Soweto. We visited several historically important places and were able to immerse ourselves in the history of South Africa & Soweto. Lebo has a wealth of knowledge, which he imparts in a great way. He knows Soweto really well, and we couldn't have asked for a better guide! Half the day flew by, we laughed a lot and had a lot of fun. The Soweto on Foot Tour is highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience Soweto up close. Many thanks also to Murendeni, who picked us up from the hotel and entertained us wonderfully on the drive to Soweto, also sharing a wealth of knowledge with us. Both Murendeni and Lebo are incredibly empathetic, they adapted the tour to our needs and responded to any questions or requests. We can only say a heartfelt thank you for these unforgettable memories! 🫶🏼
