Johannesburg Guide Wanted in April

Looking for a reliable guide for 2-3 days in Johannesburg, during April 3-7 date range. Someone good who can show the sites and provide some history. Any recommendations appreciated.

Thanks to atravelynn we're using Wilro but not until April 14th.
We've found them to be very informative and they're allowing us to only pay 1/2 of the required money before we arrive.

Thanks, we'll check them out. They seem focussed on groups and pre-designed tours. Does anyone know of a more private guide that would create very customized touring for us based on our interests? We did that a few years ago in Cape Town and a guide led us on 2 wonderful footloose days of touring.

Hi grnmtn
I used RNS Tours last April.
Very informative and helpful guide. Flexible schedule and local insights. Booked through Rhino Africa so I only have telephone contact details for them: +27 82 686 6003

There are many good guides in the Johannesburg area. I often recommend Tusker Trails ([email protected]), Kann Tours ([email protected]) or Thomas Mudau ([email protected]). All of these guides are extremely knowledgeable and professional.

You can also search for guides on www.beoglobe.com or on the guides website www.guidessa.org.
