We had an historic experience there. If you’re visiting the place, it’s best to have a guide who would be explaining the ins and outs of the house. Especially some of the memorabilia inside the house, our guide explained the belt he got from Sugar Ray Leonard, the letter in the cupboard, the setup of the house, the fire bombing of the house, the graves on the house, the umbilical cords of the children. I’d recommend this for any traveller, especially for those who didn’t get to experience Mandela. You get to be up close and personal and feel like you knew Mandela. It’s relatively affordable, we went during the Youth Day 16 June and the fee was R40.
Visiting here is like walking in the footsteps of a great man and through his life. To say the least it is a humbling experience. The house is small but cosy. The renovations have certainly helped to restore the place and gives one a glimpse of the Mandela family life. The coal stove and bedroom are true replicas. The volunteers who guide you through the tour shed a lot of light on the history and events associated with the home and family. It is inspiring to think that he came from such a simple background but went on to do such amazing things. Note there are MANY groups performing traditional dances on the street outside. It’s fun to watch however they do expect a tip for their performance. This can be overwhelming on the wallet.
A walk into the home of one of the greatest men that lived. Hard to imagine that this 300 sq ft home was where Nelson Mandela livedalbeit, briefly. Modest entry fee of 60 rand for adults , a lively well informed guide. Overall , a 30 min walk into history.Visited onWeekend
Spent an hour in the small yet rich in memories for Mandela and his family. Saw hundreds of world awards for him. A must visit house. We had an awesome tour guide.
It's a great privilege visiting the house of an ICON, MY MENTOR, MY HERO AND AN EXEMPLARY LEADER. Tears filled my eyes when I walked into his house in Soweto, there has been no African Leader till date who is qualified to wear the shoes of NELSON MANDELA. I LOVE YOU SIR
Very interesting experience, although Nelson Mandela didn’t lived in this house for long, the information from documentation to awards is well displayed. It is very positive that the price includes the guide but in the end you need to tip them.
Great place to learn the history of Nelson Mandela in a relaxed way. A small cozy home filled with a lot of efucative memories, you can even visualise everything with the pictures that were taken way back. Very smart and well maintained. Friendly guides too. The street has nice restraurants and bars as well. Traditional dancers and so much entertainment. You will need cash with you to tip everyone. I loved the place.
Nice place which is worth visiting. A bit more about the history of one of the most iconic people of the SAR people. Interesting facts about his life, old photos, and achievements of his life will uncover more about Nelson Mandela. Once you are in Soweto it’s worth having a short break also here
It was a surprise. Too small space to a great man. But it is the history. Spotless, nice and welll organized. Employees or collaborators were useful and helpful. Souvenirs or merchandise should be more varied. Price is OK. A place to be visited and recommended.
Fascinating history about apartheid and the role Nelson Mandela played, how he lived before, during and after prison with life and kids. Zulu dances on the street, good restaurants, and tourist crafts.
