Pretoria city is the administrative capital of South Africa and is known as the "Jacaranda City”, mainly for its jacaranda-lined avenues and fascinated architecture. Whilst here you can visit historical monuments such as the Paul Kruger house which was built in 1884. Paul Kruger was the leading man in the Transvaal War against Britain between 1889-1891.

This tour is very informative with many insightful aspects of South African history. Our tour guide, Pascal, was not only very knowledgeable, he was also astute in his understanding of this country’s diversity, racial dynamics and the political sphere. As bilingual (English/French) speakers from Haiti, we appreciated our tour guide’s command of both languages. This allowed for further insights into the dynamics of this fascinating country. I would highly recommend this tour, and Pascal as a guide, to any future visitor.
