Soweto Lunch Tour: Chrysalis Foundation

Please check out this great Fundraiser for our Chrysalis Foundation - Please support if possible:

There will be a Tour through our very own Soweto and Lunch will be served.

"Johannesburg’s twin city populated exclusively by native people is Soweto. It is the largest township in the country consisting of 26 townships, each of which was designed to be independent. The township of Soweto as a whole could be called multiracial, in the sense that its residents are from all the tribes in South Africa.

The type of housing ranges from shacks to large mansions and there is one street where you can find the houses of two Nobel Peace Prize winners; Nelson Mandela and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Also located in Soweto is the Chris Hani-Baragwanath Hospital, thought to be the largest hospital in the southern hemisphere but despite this, almost 85% of the local residents still consult traditional healers who concoct medicines in their age old tradition.

Come and enjoy a cultural experience with some of the finalist of Mr. South Africa 2011.

Your five finalists and celebrity host for the day will meet you at a venue in Midrand for drinks from where you will depart in a luxury coach to the Soweto Township for an amazing day of fun, laughter, tears and exploration!

Explore the South African Culture like never before. Enjoy a traditional; but upmarket lunch and drinks at a local tavern before departing back to Midrand.
