“No easy road to freedom” was a central theme in most of the Mass Democratic Movement’s campaigns from the early days through to the late 1980s. Any understanding of present-day conditions in South Africa is greatly enhanced by looking at past injustice, the legacy of the struggle and the promise of reconstruction and development initiatives under way at present. Freedom has not come easily. This tour offers a wealth of insight into South African history. It includes a brief educational introduction to Cape Town, one of the world’s most varied and popular cities.
Please note that the Geological and Social Day Trips may be of interest to guests.
