Day 1

Begin your day with a guided bicycle tour through the vibrant streets of Soweto. Tours depart from Lebo’s Soweto Backpackers at 10:00, 13:00, and 15:00. Cycling offers a relaxed and engaging way to explore the neighbourhood while learning about its culture, history, and daily life. Ride along the famous Vilakazi Street, known as the only street in the world where two Nobel Peace Prize winners once lived. Nelson Mandela’s former home, now the Mandela House Museum, is located here and tells the story of his life and legacy. Continue to the Hector Pieterson Museum, which shares the history of the 1976 Soweto Uprising and honours the students who protested for equal education during apartheid. You will also see the colourful Orlando Towers, once part of a power station and now one of Soweto’s most recognisable landmarks. After the morning tour, guests on the early departure can enjoy a traditional African-style lunch before returning to Lebo’s Soweto Backpackers.

Macdonald was extremely friendly, patient and knowledgeable.

We had a wonderful Winelands tour with Macdona with Knap tours. We were picked up on time and enjoyed our drive to the Stellenbosch area. We visited 3 wineries and had delicious tastings at each. Macdonald also brought us to a restaurant in the town of Stellenbosch, The Wine Glass, and we had a wonderful conversation with Macdonald at lunch. The wineries visited were wonderful. The last one also had olive oils to sample. The Vineyards were top tier and we enoyed the beautiful scenery during the drive. We also used Knap tours to pick us up at the airport and bring us to our hotel when we arrived in Cape Town. Macdonald greeted us after we exoted baggage cllaim with our name on a sign,.no waiting! We highly this awesime service. We already have booked our airport drop offs with them as well.

A service that puts you at ease

From start to finish, the process was seamless. Contacted them initially to enquire about a transfer and they responded within 20 mins with all the information needed. Price was so reasonable in comparison to other transfer options. A WhatsApp group was made the day before with times and information provided. Simba transferred us from Cape Town to Sanbona wildlife reserve and his service was exceptional. Arrived promptly, put us at ease the entire journey, allowing us to stop when needed, providing great tunes and giving us really interesting information on the area. Took a beautiful scenic route. Cannot recommend enough and would advise checking with this company first before taking the transfers offered by the places you are going as they are usually double in price.

Brilliant organisation at very short notice

Julian put together our last-minute three-day safari trip to Namibia at one day’s notice and stayed in touch to make sure all the arrangements went smoothly (they did). He responded immediately to our initial enquiry. We were met at the airport by our driver/guide Jeff, who was excellent, knowledgeable and attentive, so our experience in Etosha National Park was truly amazing. We would thoroughly recommend Knap Tours.
