TOUR HIGHLIGHTS
Today you enjoy a full day Journet to Freedom Tour. Many South Africans gave much, some gave all, to achieve a truly democratic South Africa ]. Come join on this full day tour that shares some of the journey, pain and struggle of those heroes; witness the places, experience the diverse museums where these momentous, tumultuous years have been so well documented. Your day begins at the Kliptown Open Air Museum where delegates met in 1955 to adapt the Freedom Chater, now the cornerstone of the Bill of Rights and the South African Constitution. The next significant stop is the fascinating Regina Mundi Church site of so many of the underground meeting of the then banned political parties. Standing in here you can feel the tension picture the intensity, the strain on the faces of those unthinkably brave souls committed at any cost to changing the way of life of a Nation.
Your next stop is the Pieterson Museum, where you start to unravel the cause of the devastating riots, before travelling past Mandela House, where you have the option of visiting this small museum (own account). Luncj in Soweto at a local restaurant then continue your journey driving past the affluent surburb of Diepkloof which is in stark contrast to the lower income areas seen earlier in the day en-route to the iconic Apartheid Museum.
