“Le tour a été très agréable, grand merci à Yves. Il a été ponctuel, patient, flexible (réservation tardive acceptée sans soucis). Il connaît bien l’histoire de la ville de Pretoria et la partage tout au long de la journée mais sans en faire trop. Les arrêts sont bien définis et en une journée on a vraiment l’impression d’avoir fait le tour de la ville de Pretoria. Je recommande vivement cette activité.”

“Excellent tour by our local guide. The visit to freedom park was the highlight and a place not to be missed. The guide provided us with loads of information to make sure we were well informed. I would certainly recommend the tour to anyone. Very relaxing pace too for us older folk. Finally a big thank you to the guide for going out of his way to take us to a shopping mall to replace something we had lost on our flight.”

“I needed something to do to fill in a time gap from hotel checkout and my departure. This was the only tour I found that accommodated my need. I was unaware that this tour highlighted the Afrikaans. It was interesting. I'm a lover of all history. Emmanuel, our guide was very informative and didn't sugar coat the effects of Apartheid on South Africa's past and future. The only downside to this tour was the bottle of water was liasing.”

“Our guide Wusi was really great. He had a lot of knowledeg about the city and he drove us around with his big car to all the important and interesting spots in Pretoria. He picked us up from our hotel and in the end brought us back but also offered to bring us to where ever we wanted. He is a compassionate and fun guy and I can reccommend him 100%. We would defenitely choose him again for any other tours he offers.”
