I was grateful to have the opportunity to have Shaun as our local tour guide. He was amazing, shared educational details about each location, took great photos of us along the away and kept us safe/comfortable in the two days we spent touring with him!
Shaun answered all of our questions and gave us a personalized experience that I will never forget. I left the tour with so much insight and knowledge that I didn’t have before my arrival in South Africa. You won’t be disappointed by booking him!

Shaun took my family around Johannesburg and Soweto. He gave us great insight into the history of the areas we went to. He was very knowledgeable and I gained a lot from him. I highly recommend Shaun for a personal tour!

As a solo Traveller in Soweto, I think i felt highly confident, thanks to Shaun...wow what a lovely experience, the people are so friendly and welcoming, but what I loved most was the information and the rich history about the place. Thank you so much sociolite tours.

Fantastic experience: we were picked up in the morning and we visited places we couldn't have gone alone. We spent with our guide all day long, but it was a pleasure he was very interesting and share all he knows , we also ate together
Always felt safe with our guide, his driving was excellent and very hospitable. This is highly recommended.

Absolutely fantastic experience. The ONLY way to see all the major sites. We were on a tight schedule and wanted to see all the major sights in and around J’berg and wanted to briefly see Pretoria. All other agencies said this was not possible in one day. However after going to the tourist info point on Nelson Mandela square we were contacted by this company.
We were picked up promptly the next morning by Shaun in a great comfortable SUV.
Shaun was extremely knowledgeable and he took us to all the major sights in jberg along with Soweto and even managed to take us all the way to Pretoria in rush hour. He never rushed us, in fact he offered more time to us than originally agreed. He even stopped of at an the Vortrekker monument without our knowledge, offering spectacular panoramic views over Pretoria.
Always felt safe with him even in the slightly ‘dodgy’ areas of jberg, his driving was excellent and very hospitable. This is highly recommended.
He even went to the trouble of posting my sunglasses on to the western cape when I left them in his car by accident.
Superb. Thank you

Shaun took me on a private 2 day tour of Soweto and Maboneng and Braamfontein. He was very knowledgeable about the history of these sites, and he went out of his way to make sure I enjoyed the tour. One of the highlights was visiting a local street market for lunch and eating with the local crowd. I also got to see tons of amazing street art on the walking tour that we did. I would highly recommend Socioolite for any tour of the city and would book with them again if I ever touring Joburg in the future.
