Our inner tour was extensive. Not only did we, to our great delight, get to see a lot of street art, but we were also accompanied by the expert commentary of our guide Kaizer. It wasn't just the art itself, but especially the social and cultural background that fascinated us. The second part of the tour provided insight into the composition of the city. We got a fantastic impression overall. We would never have experienced all this without a guide in general --- and Kaizer in particular. Absolutely recommended if you are visiting Johannesburg.

Excellent guide. Felt very safe with him although walking thru areas that would not walk by myself. Guide had very specific ideas about political history about joberg but since I basically agreed with him this was not a problem for me
