Come and join us on a fun filled morning guided tour of Soweto, with a lunch stop in a local Shebeen.
Soweto consists of a community of extremes. On the one hand there is abject poverty and on the other hand there is extraordinary wealth in the upper class suburbs such as Diepkloof Extension and Selection Park. Some of the houses in that area sell for over one and two million rands. Today Soweto is the largest Black residential area in South Africa and has a population of more than 3.5 Million people with the land in extent of 120KM squared. There is a visible development since 1994 (Post Apartheid Era).
Refuel with the traditional Shebeen Lunch ( buy and Braai) at local Restaurant, enjoy the delicious tastes and smells of local cuisine.
