Good safari experience but accommodation can be improved.
I took the 6 day 5 nights safari tour with MoAfrika tours.
The accommodation at the Tremisina lodge was decent. But the accommodation at Marc Treehouse lodge was found wanting. First, the walk to the treehouse was quite far. And it required us to drag our luggage a long distance through the stone/rock pavement. There were many ants on the pathway which inevitably crawled on your luggage. The accommodation itself was dimly lit and had many insects such as ants. I had to flick away many ants and other insects that were crawling on my bed, mattresses, pillows, blankets etc. Food served at Marc Treehouse was also of poorer quality compared to Tremisana lodge. The beef was not tender and hard to swallow. Finally, I was hoping to see more animals around the treehouse, like some monkey swinging outside my door, but alas there was none. Only some impalas...
As for the safari experience, it was exciting to see so many animals roaming freely around in the wild. Animals spotted include lions, elephants, giraffe, hippo, rhinos, leopard, buffalo, jackal, wild dogs, baboons, hyena and others. Given the fact that I stayed longer, I guess it is only natural that the number of animals sighted would correspondingly increase.
Guides were alright – neither remarkable nor unremarkable. I guess they were focused on driving and spotting animals so didn’t have much interaction with them. Couldn’t remember their names or anything interesting about them too. Some guides were more time-conscious and clock-watching whilst others were more liberal with the timings.
Also did the Moholoholo tour, learnt about animal poaching and conservation efforts. Saw some eagles and my favourite (white lions), and some other animals such as hyena, jaguar, cheetah etc. It felt like I was visiting the local zoo and less interesting compared to the safari drives.

Excellent wildlife viewing - hotel facilities average.
Thoroughly enjoyed the Kruger game drives as well as the scenic tour of NE South Africa. Guides were knowledgeable and engaging. I do wish there was a little more time spent observing the myriad of birds in the park - I do understand that most visitors are on the tour to see the Big 5 as well as the numerous other wildlife in the park.
The hotel facilities were acceptable. My room was nice; however, nothing really was working, including lights, television, etc. I had to go to the main reception area to read. The staff was pleasant but did not follow through when I asked if the lamps or television could be fixed. The restaurant was okay but selection was limited and the hotel was not particularly close to any other options for meals.
The trip was easy to book and MoAfrica was very responsive to my questions.

He was a great and knowledgeable
The booking and the whole process was seemless. The whole experience was great and I would surely patronise again.
