Well plannes tour and great guide, allowed us to see 4 of the 5 big fives in a short time
4/5

- Value for money
- Puntual pick up from hotel
- Great driver and guides

- On the flip side, I wish the tour could have been longer only die to a rather large crowd from multiple hotels hence there was a lot of pick up and drop offs required. I was the first to be picked up at 6am and last to be dropped of at my Hotel the Sandton Sun at 8.30pm. There was around 3-4 hours of 'real safari' time.

Extremely efficient and enjoyable day!
5/5

I booked this tour at the last minute when I unexpectedly had a free day during a business trip. The trip was confirmed and the company reached out to confirm the bus pick up at my hotel by text. They were there the next morning exactly on schedule. With very little wait time on arrival at the part we were transferred to a safari vehicle. The guide was terrific: friendly, knowledgeable, and informative. He went out of his way to cover a broad range of interests—animals, birds, insects, plants. Lunch was provided i a restaurant in the park and again the guide went the extra mile; taking all guests lunch orders directly to the kitchen to avoid having to wait for a very busy wait staff. We saw so many more animals that I had expected in a one day outing so close to the city. I highly recommend this if you are in Johannesburg and have a free day!

Energetic, humorous, and knowledgeable
5/5

It was such a great experience. Super easy to book the reservation (via trip advisor). We were picked up from our hotel right on time. We saw so many animals (e.g., an entire colony of over 100 elephants up close) and the lunch served was really tasty. Great experience I over all.

Tour was very reasonably priced, communication was clear. Pick up and drop off was right at our hotel on time. Lunch was great. Our tour guy Ben was fantastic. We saw 3 of the big 5. Truck can get chilly! Bring a jacket, sweater or blanket!

Thank you

Amazing and accomodating
5/5

Both the transfer and the safari was great. Itu was very polite, light hearted, on time in the morning, and trying to accommodate every wish. The guide at the pilanesburg game drive was also amazing and professional. Huge thanks to Itu and the rest of the team for a once in a lifetime day.

Great experience
5/5

I would always recommend this tour. They answered my questions by email the day before, the pick up from the hotel was on the minute. The driver of the minibus was giving us a lot of interesting information about the area we drove through.
Then we switched vehicles and met our ranger who couldn’t even give us the briefing because we literally stumbled on lions with cubs when we were 10min into the park. It was terrific. After the lions crossed the road and laid flat, Mr T managed to show us many more animals. We had a nice lunch and on the way out of the park we saw even more wild life. Mr T was very informative. The day went by too fast. Would always book with Mo Africa again.

Amazing tour, friendly and attentive tour guides.
5/5

I booked the overnight stay at Pilanesburg, Sunny came to pick me up bright and early, he was very informative and up beat throughout the trip.
Following my stay at Shepherds Tree Lodge Lidu picked me and I was fortunate no other travellers were leaving just yet so he drove me around the game reserve privately for a couple hours. He was a pro and knew all the spots and made my day by eventually getting to see some zebras.
I also got stung by a bee at lunch so he helped with proving alcoholic wipes, luckily I wasn’t allergic.
Thanks for your hospitality and putting together an amazing trip.

Welcoming, informative
4/5

We had a great day. The pick up and drop off went smoothly. In the park our tour guide was very skillful in his maneuvering of the truck, knew were to stop to spot game, and had a overall broad knowledge of the park wildlife.

Reliable and trustworthy operator, really enjoyed the Safari
5/5

MoAfrica's ultimate Pilanesberg safari is a must-try for anyone visiting Johannesburg, especially if you're a foreigner and unsure about how to go on a safari. As an Indian visiting Joburg for the first time, I was apprehensive about the whole thing. However, MoAfrica made the experience safe and enjoyable.

The pick-up and drop-off service to and from my hotel in Sandton was a convenient feature that allowed me to relax and focus on the safari ahead. The safari was well-organized, and we were able to see a variety of wildlife, including lions, elephants, rhinos, giraffes, and deer. The guide was knowledgeable and provided interesting information about the animals we encountered.

Overall, I had a great experience with MoAfrica's ultimate Pilanesberg safari, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable safari experience while visiting Johannesburg.
