The tour I went on didnt do any of the things in the tour description. The description has a disclaimer that activities may differ, but by 100? I was particularly looking forward to sampling the Xhosa cuisine but that didnt happen that was the most disappointing aspect for me.
This tour is also way overpriced. The cost of this half day tour is about the same as a full day tour of the Cape Peninsular and double the price of a similar half day tour in Soweto. For the premium price I expected a premium experience.

This is the Township tour you're looking for. Great, in-depth view of life in the Townships, the work and progress being made there. Incredibly informative and a great way to learn more about the history of South Africa free from pressure or propaganda.

The Township Tour was really eye-opening. It is one thing to hear about apartheid on tv, radio and the news and a whole different thing to speak with guides who can educate you on it. Going to Langa was an adventure in itself. The people were humble, inviting and hardworking. My tour guide Michael was very informative and made the tour very interactive. Thanks!
