Outdoor Adventure Business Lures Tourists in Soweto

Outdoor Adventure Business Lures Tourists in Soweto

A township made famous by the presence of Nelson Mandela’s former Vilikazi Street home, the community is now host to Soweto Outdoor Adventures. Located near the house, the business was founded to give dependable visitors an alternate South Africa tourist experience, CCTV Africa reported. Local companies have latched onto the new concept encouraging team building among employees.

“The idea was conceptualized after seeing a couple of guys from a soccer team going quad biking. I thought to myself; this is a great idea to bring to Soweto,” Kgomotso Pooe, co-founder of Soweto Outdoor Adventures told CCTV Africa.

“We have quad bikes now, we’ve got go-karting, we’ve got paintballing with the Soweto Amazing Race. We’ve got Soweto Tours on the back of quad bikes — and in a month’s time we’ll have Soweto boot camp,” he added.
