Located in Soweto, 9.3 miles from Apartheid Museum, Authentic Bicycle Tours and Backpackers has accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a bar.

Traveling for the first time into this part of "historical" South Africa and after hearing about the negative stuff, I wasn't sure how it will be, but "Lungi" made it a "smooth" ride. He knows many people around and will help you out in getting rid of the negative perceptions/stereotypes you have about this place. He can also spontaneously organize tours and guide you in showing different places around Jo'burg/Soweto. After staying here, I can say that staying here was better than in staying in Jo'burg. The room & the toilets are clean...and no mosquitoes (at least inside the room). So, it was a learning & a great stay! :)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    We were able to change rooms. The guy is friendly. Great yard, ample space for parking. Receptionist opened the gate fast as we arrived very late. So safety is considered. Thank you.

    Nothing, this place is like a crime scene waiting to happen if it hasn’t happened of human trafficking. It dirty and scary, not safe for a woman to be there
