Modern World History Tours

Historians usually judge the Vietnam War to be one of the most important conflicts of the twentieth century. During the nine years of official American involvement in the Vietnam War over two million Vietnamese and 58,219 Americans lost their lives.

The victorious Vietnamese communists inherited a country that had been ravaged by 30 years of constant warfare. The infrastructure of a nation lay in ruins and millions of refuges wandered the battered countryside.

Our tour have been designed not only to give the students a insight to the Vietnam War, but to see how the country has re-built itself to become
one of the most intoxicating places on earth, it’s a kaleidoscope of vivid colours and subtle shades of exotic sights and curious sounds, of compelling history and contrasting cultures.

"Apartheid" literally means 'apartness' and it represented the laws and oppressive system which kept Africans in an inferior position to whites for centuries.

Most of us grew up thinking that the Apartheid movement was about Nelson Mandela and the ANC struggle against the South Africa government in the 80s & 90s. In fact the struggle started much earlier in 1913.

Seventy seven years later, at 4pm on the 10th February 1990, "Rolihlahla" Mr Nelson Mandela the leader of the African National Congress was finally released from the Victor Verster Prison, Paarl at the age of Seventy-One after 10,000 days of imprisonment. The rest is history that ultimately changed South African for ever!

Our tours have been designed to take you to some of the key areas of the History of South Africa and the Apartheid campaign, the history that changed the way the world today looks upon South Africa (The Rainbow Nation).
