"My daughters didn't learn about apartheid from a textbook — they stood in Mandela's cell. They walked through Soweto and saw where the students marched. I shared my certificates with my sisters — they went on a separate trip months later. Heritage Africa changed our whole family."
Denise H. — Motherland Discovery, South Africa 2024

Walk Where Freedom Was Won

South Africa Heritage Journey: Robben Island • Mandela's Cell • Soweto • Apartheid Museum • Township Homecoming — the nation that ended apartheid and built a new future

Combine your journey: Add Ghana (Cape Coast Castle, Door of Return, Naming Ceremony) or Zanzibar (Stone Town, Slave Trade Sites) as a separate extension trip.

Why Are We Giving Away $350 Certificates?

It's not a gimmick. Here's why it works:

We're a direct operator in Africa — no travel agents, no commissions, no middlemen.
Instead of paying for ads, we reward real people who share with real community.
When your cousin books because you told her, that's more powerful than any ad. We pay for that — with certificates.

Common Questions

Is this really free to join?
Yes. Joining costs nothing. No credit card, no commitment. You get 5 certificates worth $350 each. You only spend money when you decide to book your own trip.
Do the people I share with have to travel with me?
No. They pick any Heritage Africa trip — South Africa heritage, Ghana homecoming, safari, Cape Town — and travel whenever suits them. You don't need to coordinate anything.
How can you afford to give $350 per certificate?
We're a direct operator — we run the trips ourselves from South Africa. No agents, no commissions. Instead of spending on ads, we invest in our community. Your recommendation is worth more to us than any Facebook campaign.
Is there a catch?
No catch. Certificates are valid for 12 months. One per booking. If nobody you share with books, you've lost nothing. It's free to try, and many Circle members have earned a completely free trip.
