We thoroughly enjoyed our Maboneng walk with Eko. He was entertaining and informative, and added extra details tailored to the interests of our group. We were a mixture of first-time visitors and repeat visitors, but we all enjoyed the experience equally. Thank you for a great afternoon. I definitely recommend the tour.

We took the full day SoWeTo and apartheid museum tour. The tour was very well organized and our guide was willing to answer all the many questions we had. It was very interesting and I recommend it to try understand a bit of a part of South Africa that might be out from touristic highlights. Apartheid museum is vast but very interesting, describing recent historical facts of which we did not have deep knowledge. At Curiocity, people are so nice and welcoming
