About

As some of South Africa's most notorious - yet misunderstood - neighbourhoods, they remain taboo for most South Africans and many tourists. Dlala Nje removes this fear of the unknown with authentic experiences like no other. Hit the streets for a view of REAL inner city Johannesburg.

Eye opening, fun, interactive
Jun 2022
We had a fantastic time. The tour is so well organised. As we drove into Lily Avenue towards the Ponte's blue gate, a guard signed us in. I gave our tour guide a ring and he met us at the parking lot. The tour was really insightful. Sfiso is an excellent guide. This has been my third time at the Ponte. I love coming back to this special space that is is doing so much for its community.

Real Joburg
Jun 2022
A fantastic insight into one of Joburg's most famous buildings and its surrounding neighborhood. Our guide Delight was informative, engaging, and personable, and had a heap of information and stories on the Tower and the surrounding neighborhood of Hillbrow, where he grew up. Great view and complementary drink from the 51st floor of the tower. As an added benefit, profits from the tours are used to fund DlalaNje's activities with the youth of the local community, including cultural, artistic, and educational initiatives. A definite recommendation!

Like their activities with kids from the neighbourhood very much - such a friendly atmosphere!

An unparalleled experience of Yoh-annesburg
May 2022
What a wonderful, interactive, and deeply informative tour of one of the most-misunderstood and enigmatic spaces in Jo'burg. (And even the country as a whole, I'd venture). From Hillbrow's history to a thirst-quenching zamalek quart to the sublime maws of Ponte: this experience is a must. Ngiyabonga, julle!

Johannesburg bucket list must- Ponte visit
This is something everyone has to do when they come to Johannesburg, this part of the city is often not seen. The knowledgeable guides make the experience even more special.

Wonderful people, amazing stories.
May 2022
Such a fascinating look into the building that dominates the skyline of Joburg! I was especially blown away by the views — to outside and in! I also loved getting to know the Dlala Nje team — their mission and activism is incredible.

Breathtaking views over Joburg from the 51st floor!
May 2022
Learn about a piece of Johannesburg history. A fascinating story, both from a social as well as an architectural point of view. The guide was super friendly, the tour most interesting, and the views over the city breathtaking. Well worth a visit!

Riveting experience
The This is Hillbrow tour was amazing, specifically to see how a once notorious inner city area is being upgraded block by block.
The tour guides were professional and knowledgeable and there were no safety concerns at all.
I would recommend doing this tour even for local South Africans, Hîlbrow today is not the stereotype of a decayed inner city area.
Having done the amazing Ponte tour before I’m looking forward to do the other tours too!
Cudo’s to Dlala Nje for making these experiences available.

Wonderful experience
May 2022
Wonderful, wonderful experience. I deeply empathize with their mission of fighting prejudice, and I am so glad that I got to be part of it. The tour was very informative, and our guides were very lovely people to chat with. The lunch in the Ponte Tower was one of the most memorable things we've experienced in South Africa. Totally recommend it to anyone!
