The area is considered to be unsafe. Not crowded at all so you have time to stroll at your own pace., well the place depict the prisoners life in and out of the African history. maintenance could have been better, easy to navigate across various sections. Highlight - the isolation cells, Mandela gandhi gallery, Mandela cell and the tunnel. Worth a visit if you are into history and would like to be part of it. Apart from prison of various different types and size., there is nothing that interest you more of the surroundings.

We did the highlights tour which was worthwhile. There’s a lot of interesting history here and I wish I could have spent more time looking around.

Another mandatory stop in Johannesburg. Fundamental to understanding a little about the lives of Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandi. Two extremely important people in the history of South Africa. Visiting the prison where they were both held, among many other prisoners, helps us understand how absurd it was at a time when people were oppressed just because of the color of their skin. Even more impressive is thinking that this happened not so long ago. The attraction is quite large, has several wings and it is possible to explore everything on foot. I recommend at least 4 hours to explore the entire complex and take photos. Very worth the visit.

Totally worth a visit. Especially for foreigners. It helps you put a lot of things into context by learning a little more about South Africa and its dark past. It also helps you understand and appreciate the country and its people, especially now when it's under majority rule. There are some things that are off about what's exhibited here especially given what we know today about some of the people celebrated here like Gandhi. The guided tour starts with a visit to the old prison. The place will break you. However, you will be lifted back up and have hope once you take a look at the Constitution Court chambers. The guides are very knowledgeable and make the tour very informative and reflective - of ourselves as humankind and how we treat one another.
