Loved the tour

Lufuno was a great guide - took good care of our needs and showed us some really interesting aspects of Johannesburg. We would definitely recommend the tour and will look for other similar tours next time we have a layover.

Very personalized rour

Lufano was wonderful! We went out on a Saturday evening and Lufano was able to totally "read" us and tailor the experience to our taste. Highly recommend!

About local Lunga

Personable and very knowledgeable

I loved my time with Lunga. Two friends and I enjoyed seeing the various sites along the tour - my favorite being the law office where Nelson Mandela and Oliver Tembo worked together when they first started seeing clients. Lunga has a nice and easy going manner. It was clear he knew his stuff and his focus was on our safety and enjoyment of his city. I highly recommend him!
