Soweto tour guide recommendations?
 
Have you visited Soweto with a tour guide recently? Anyone you would recommend?

We used this company. We did a 2 day ticket and did the Red City tour and the Soweto tour.

We found The Apartheid Museum to be moving and the highlight of the tour. The Soweto tour was also very nteresting.

Thanks DebitNM. I am looking for more of a private guide / tour. Glad to hear the Apartheid Museum is worth it.

Howzit again tripplanner001.
We always use the services of Joe Motsogi of JMT Tours in Soweto. They're not so prominent on social media/Trip advisor nor is their website anything special, but Joe is one of the most respected guides in Soweto. Email his wife Odirile (known as Sophie) and request Joe to personally show you around. They often use other guides but Joe is the only one I would recommend.
Cheers,
Darren
