This immersive historical experience brings to life the founding of Johannesburg and the discovery of gold on the reef.
Afterwards, explore the vibrant, energetic township of Soweto—South Africa’s largest and a powerful symbol of its cultural heartbeat.
The Apartheid Museum offers a powerful and thought-provoking journey through the rise and fall of apartheid. Its 22 exhibition areas feature film footage, photographs, text panels, and artefacts that illuminate the events, people, and lived experiences that shaped this period. You’ll leave with a far deeper understanding of how apartheid came to be, and how South Africa transformed into the nation it is today.
Afterwards, continue to Soweto, short for South-Western Township, for an authentic and engaging cultural experience. As South Africa’s largest Black residential area and a product of the apartheid government’s segregation policies, Soweto has long been a focal point of political resistance and social change. It has been home to many influential figures, including former President Nelson Mandela and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Today, its rich political heritage, warm community spirit, and vibrant energy make Soweto an essential stop for travellers seeking a deeper perspective on South African life beyond its wildlife and natural wonders.
