Traveler reviews
Pretoria Tour
I visited Pretoria on an excellent day trip from Johannesburg. Lebo was an outstanding guide! He provided an overview of South Africa's history and explained how Johannesburg and Pretoria have developed over time. The Voortrekker Monument captured a rich history in its design while the Paul Kruger House and Museum included interesting artifacts. We passed by the Union Buildings and park at the end. Definitely recommend this tour!
Informative tour of one of South Africa's capital cities
While visiting Johannesburg, my wife and I did the half-day tour to Pretoria. Nicholas was our driver and guide, and he was friendly and informative and did an excellent job unpacking the region's complex history for us. We had adequate time to visit the gardens in front of the Union Houses, do a self-guided tour of the Paul Kruger House, and he led us on a tour of the Voortrekker Monument, explaining the history as it was represented in the layout of the monument and the contents of its museum (and we had time to enjoy the view of the city and surrounding region from there). The drive from Johannesburg wasn't long (about 45 minutes), so it was easy to fit this tour into our brief stay there. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Nicholas, and would recommend this for someone wanting a brief visit to one of the three capital cities of South Africa (in addition to Cape Town and Bloemfontein), as well as understanding the role of the Afrikaner minority in the country's history.
Guided tour
Our guide Nicolas was good and told us a lot and interesting.
Great half day city tour os Pretoria
Carson was our tour guide he was extremely knowledgeable and made the tour fun and interesting. Got to see some sites we would not have even thought of visiting.
Different and exceptional experience.
An experience that should be added to the tour of Africa knowing one of the country’s capitals. The guide Nikolas helped me a lot in understanding each monument and reading the places visited.
