Very good guided tour by Shane

Published on Jan, 2025

Shane is an excellent tour guide who was very easy to get on with from the start of our tour. A very interesting chap who is also full of information about the history of Pretoria and the sites. We would highly recommend this tour as you get to see the highlights of Pretoria (at your pace) including the very interesting Voortrekker monument and the Union building with the impressive Nelson Mandela statue. We were very happy that Shane was our guide & very much enjoyed our tour of Pretoria.

Pretoria and Voortrekker Monument Tour - Pretoria South Africa

Published on Sep, 2024

Shane was a great tour guide. I travelled solo and had a great time. The Voortrekker Monument was fascinating. Loved going there and driving through Pretoria and hearing the history was really enjoyable. I highly recommend this trip. Really enjoyed the day! Thanks!

A Day in Pretoria!

Published on Jul, 2024

We decided to visit Pretoria and had an enjoyable tour with Shane. We started off at the Voortrekker Monument. It is mostly curated from the Dutch perspective, but there is a lot to see and the collections are very nicely done. Next, we visited a South African military museum. At the Union Buildings, there was a wonderful photo opportunity near the gigantic statue of Nelson Mandela. Shane also took us to the embassy row, and he talked about his role in helping to implement the security of an important building. We ended our tour with a visit to the Loftus Versfeld Stadium. Shane spoke with a security guard who allowed us to view the inside of the stadium, and we took a few pictures. Thank you very much Shane for a memorable tour!

Shane was very knowledgeable, friendly and we enjoyed his down to earth attitude. I would recommend him to others visiting this beautiful country.

Shane is a great host & a true ambassador of Pretoria!

Published on Jul, 2024

Shane drove all the way to Johannesburg from Pretoria, where he is based, just to host me on a tour back in Pretoria! He's a true lover of South Africa & is unabashedly proud of the culture & landscape of this country, especially so towards his home city of Pretoria. He is very knowledgeable & insightful about the history & background of the city, & is willing to go the extra mile (literally!) to show the beauty of Pretoria through his eyes. I highly recommend going on his Pretoria tours, as well as the other tours he offers for the nature reserves in the country. 10/10!
