Wonderful
We loved our experience at Pilanesberg, our guide Tiaan was so knowledgeable and friendly. We’re so glad we went for the whole day. We had time to see so much! It didn’t feel rushed at all. Even just driving around the park would have been a highlight, not to mention all the wildlife too!

A Value-For-Money, Out of the World Experience at Pilanesburg via MoAfrika Tours for 3D2N!
Booking a 3D2N tour with MoAfrika was a right move! I did my research on a Wednesday, sent some messages to them on WhatsApp and got my queries answered and trip booked subsequently for the Friday-Sunday!
Fuss free, easy to do online payment and transfer as well (I literally did it on the Table Mountain itself while hiking..).
The trip started with a knowledgable, dedicated driver called Alex from MoAfrika who picked me from the accommodation in Jo’Berg. We drove 2.5h to Pilanesberg with a short rest stop in between and he took me on a very informative closed van drive. Alex always seemed to be able to spot animals even while he was driving, and would explain about them enthusiastically!
I then got transferred to Bakubung Lodge and had a great stay with them! Elephants and Warthog (aka Pumbaa!) would even come super close to the lodge for a visit! Imagine having a buffet lunch and watch these animals roam just outside.
The stay was comfortable with super clean and huge room! They have top tiered services that had staff coming to clean and set up the room for you TWICE (while you are out for game drives in the morning / afternoon).
Food is crazy excellent and I experienced Bakubung’s special Friday “Lamb on a Spit” dinner and “Boma Bush Braai” aka outdoor dinner in the wild on Saturday with Afrikan style performances, romantic dinner under the stars and unlimited laughter and vibes! Note that the bush dinner was offered only on Wed/Sat when I visited.
I experienced 6 game drives in total (2 closed van, 2 sunrise and 2 sunset open 4x4) and every experience is different as you see different animals in different amount and distance! Patience is the key to really enjoy the safari, and expect the unexpected!
I recommend doing 3 days as I only spotted lions close to me on the 5th drive (3rd day sunrise).
After the entire weekend treat, MoAfrika also organised a van to drive us straight to the Jo’berg Airport. Fuss free, always reachable, Anthony from MoAfrika made sure I always get help or my queries answered ASAP.
It’s been a great pleasure doing this tour instead of the others in Kruger, as Pilanesburg is only 2.5 - 3h away by car while Kruger is at least 7 hours away! This means you get 6 drives instead of only 4 in Kruger (due to the 14 hours required to travel to and fro Jo’berg by car).
All in all, I am glad I took that leap of faith to book the tour even though it is out of my budget… But the experience is unforgettable and you’ll definitely have a good time for the whole tour and feel like an esteemed guest!

Responsive, booked me a trip 48 hours before I departed!
Communications were prompt, not a single hitch with any of the transfers, and the safari was mind-blowing. Would 100% use MoAfrika tours again.
Background: had some days to kill in Europe and was surfing the web for cheap flights. Found some good ones to South Africa…48 hours before they departed. I sent MoAfrika a request for a quote and they got back promptly, adjusted the dates for me, and booked a seamless trip. They were responsive and made several changes, some even last minute.
Both transfers were booked in clean, reliable vehicles with drivers who were early and courteous.
And the safari can’t even be put into words. I was at Madikwe Bush House, and from start to finish, it was worth every cent and every second I spent there.
Throughout, MoAfrika was highly responsive via WhatsApp, allowing me to send quick messages and enjoy my vacation while they took care of all the hard work in the background. Cannot wait to go back to South Africa, and use MoAfrika again!

Amazing, unforgettable… just PERFECT!
It was an UNBELIEVABLE experience!
All was simply perfect. Communication with Rishen (contact person at Moafrika) was swift, quick, easy, with immediate answer to all our queries.… and he was always lovely and very helpful.
And what to say about our stay at Kapama River Lodge… a once in lifetime experience! Breathtaking place, wonderful rangers that did their utmost for to have best possible sightings, great dinner and breakfast. Absolutely amazing. I wish we’d stayed longer. Totally recommend both Moafrika tours and stay at Kapama Lodge.

Amazing
I have been planning a trip like this for many years. I had the opportunity to organise this as part of my business trip.
I’m glad I did. The Gods were with me, perfect weather, good company and a great guide. What more can I want.
Shall do this trip again on my return.

Incredible experience from booking to Game Drive
Very professional agency, they have service over whatsapp which is very convenient and I never waited more than 5 min for a response, which made me feel very safe with my choice from the beginning. They were also flexible to upgrade our package with more open vehicle game drives and made it work perfectly with our itinerary.
Our Safari experience started with Sunny picking us up on our hotel in Johannesburg at 6am with the best mood and got us excited for what we were about to experience. The shuttle to Pilanesberg was confortable, safe, new and had wifi.
Once we got to the Game Reserve, Game drive vehicles and the safari guides were super nice and professional. They are very good at spotting animals and have good connections on the reserve to also know where others are finding animals, which makes the game drive exciting and efficient.
We stayed at the Ivory Tree game lodge, which has amazing ameneties and warm service staff. Everyone should try their Frozen Strawberry margarita. The lodge felt safe, clean, comfortable and food was delicious.
I really can't wait to come back and do a Safari trip again. When I do, I will definitely reach out to MoAfrika.

Very well planned and fuss free travel.
We get to see all the Big 5 animals and the resort food is superb!
