Experience City Tours in Johannesburg with Withlocals

"My husband and I both enjoyed spending a lively Friday afternoon with Lunga. We would never have found the art galleries, street art, artisan shopping, and large, festive Friday Braai on our own. Was a wonderful, unique experience we will never forget."

"Lulu was one of the best guides we ever had in all our trips around the world. Already the first impression of her made us having a positive vibe….through her we could also be transported safely to the Madikwe Game Reserve for a very affordable price!!! Lulu brought us in the most insider spots of Maboneng and she told us a lot of interesting things of her culture. If you wish to make a real local trip to the hidden spots of Johannesburg, join Lulu!!!! She is great!!!!❤️❤️❤️"

"Lunga was great guide a very genuine nice person. He was knowledgeable about history, architecture and life of Johannesburg. He is given us a great many insights about life of different cultures and people living in South Africa and specifically in Joburg. He showed us around the Maboneng, taking us to a very authentic Zulu market with food and specialty shops. We asked to take us to Soweto and showed us around walking the main streets sharing history of the place and about its historic importance."

"Experienced, kind, knowledgeable and will make sure you are safe around JB. Strongly recommend. We were in JB for only one day ahead of our trip to Kruger and couldn’t be happier with the experience Lunga provided us with!"

"Lulu was the BEST guide! If you want a personal guide who can show you a wonderful private tour of Johannesburg and Soweto, Lulu is your girl! She picked us up and dropped us off at the Southern Sun OR Tambo for our tour. She told us so many stories, and gave us history about Soweto. We went to Constitution Hill, the prison, drove around the different areas of the city, the towers, the Hector plaza, Nelson Mandela house, the Cultural Village, and even had lunch at a place where only locals eat in Johannesburg - very interesting! It was just a phenomenal day! Nina V"

"Our time with Lunga was very rewarding. The start of our tour was interrupted by a spring time rain shower but Lunga was very flexible, finding a quiet spot, out of the rain, to provide us with a verbal history of Johannesburg. He provided a rich overview of the past history and the current struggles of his home. Once the rain passed, Lunga got us out among the locals who were making the most of their Sunday night. He took us to many places that we would not have found on our own and provided context and explanations along the way. Lunga's hopes and dreams for his country are evident as is his pride in his home. Having a wonderful guide like Lunga is a gift. We cherished our time with him and came away with a deep understanding and faith in the city of Johannesburg."

"Lufuno ist an extraordinary good guide. We enjoyed EVERY minute of our Maboneng Tour. We became a perfect insight of this part of Jo-Burg. She showed us some hidden gems and we visited different local shops and tried excellent local food. We got a very good insight of the positive, as well as the negative aspects of life in Maboneng. Highly recommended! Join a tour with this amazing woman. Just try yourself. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you very much Lufuno! "

"We had a very special day in Maboneng with party and sightseeing. The next day, sightseeing in and around Soweto. Good food, drinks, excellent guiding. Really felt well and safe all the time. Met a lot of interesting people, great views, great vibes 😎. Will absolutely recommend Lufuno for guided tours in Johannesburg if you want to see the real city- off the classic tourist tracks."

"A wonderful urban experience, an attentive guide who showed the best of Johannesburg in just a few hours, always in a relaxing and safe environment. Great job, congratulations Lufuno!"

"Lufuno was an amazing guide on a recent short layover in Johannesburg. She was very accommodating to the schedule I needed to keep and was able to bring me to some cool hot spots in Johannesburg to give me a sense of the everyday vibe. Really enjoyed seeing and meeting local shop owners and artists as well as chatting with Lufuno around life in Johannesburg. I couldn't have asked for better and look forward to another visit!"
