After taking part in some tours in Johannesburg, I became aware of Thuli by chance. I can only recommend anyone to contact Thuli right away, because her tours are more informative and insightful than
Everyone I’ve met. It is not the usual here that they see this and that, but you get a deep insight into the situation of the country, how it works or does not work. Thuli loves her city and the country, but has a clear opinion about the things that don’t go so well. In addition, she is an open, curious, very warm personality with whom you can discuss great.
I will definitely be Thuli’s service the next time I stay inJohannesburg
re-use the service. Thank you Thuli, see you next year

We did Thuli the Contrast Tour in February 2019. We were lucky and were the only guests on the day and enjoyed a private tour. it was very interesting. Thuli speaks super German and we learned a lot about South Africa in general and Johannesburg in particular on the tour. We would book again immediately.
