Get a taste of tribal Africa with the Lesedi day tours
As much as a cliché as it might have become, there is a reason why South Africans are known as the Rainbow Nation. We are a diverse nation with many different heritages, who have, through many hardships throughout history, managed to come together to form one bright new heritage as a single nation with hope for a better future. A part of what makes this work is the fact that while we are one nation and stand together to rise to the occasion, we have not forgotten our separate identities and still celebrate that. We are proud of who we are and where we came from. This is evident when going on the Lesedi day tours.
