#JonVoyage: Tributes for The Daily Show's Jon Stewart
Stewart said his final goodbye to the show last night after 16 years as host of the satirical Comedy Central series.
South African renowned comedian Trevor Noah is set to take over the show next month.
It was announced earlier this year that Stewart would be stepping down as the host.
Noah who made a brief appearance in Stewart's last show yesterday is expected to start on 28 September.
Noah can be seen towards the end of the video below [12:59].
Check out a teaser video here of what you can expect when Noah takes over from Stewart.
See below as colleagues and correspondence continue to pay tribute to the comedian.

#JonStewart leaving while Trump is still out there is the equivalent of Superman leaving behind his powers as Zod looms large. #JonVoyage
