Fun with Lambs
5/5

I recently enjoyed a fantastic tour in with a guide named Lambs with our trip to paronamic tour. His extensive knowledge and vibrant personality made the experience truly memorable. He infused humor into the tour, keeping the atmosphere light and engaging, which enhanced our understanding of the sites we visited. Lambs' passion for the city and its history was evident, making the tour not only enjoyable but also educational.

Sello was very informative. Took us to Suweto and the Aparteid museums and many other places i
5/5

Great value for money, all entries to museums paid for and a delicious lunch at an excellent restaurant in Suweto. I enjoyed the walk around a settlement in Suweto and a visit to one family house. Sello helped us feel relaxed wherever we went. Sometimes I had trouble hearing him until I moved into the front seat.

Fantastic, well organized and dedicated to excellent service.
5/5

A fantastic experience, well organized and with great employees. It is a great deal, the Radisson hotel is tremendous and everything you need. MoAfrica was always on time to pick us up and all the employees were fantastic, especially Eddy, Great, and Ruben. We were never packed into a safari car or felt like we were being rushed anywhere. Highly recommend the additional sunrise tour too, fantastic. Overall A+, really impressed.

The most amazing, well-organized safari!
5/5

Found MoAfrika via Google at first and I was amazed by the low price they asked compared to other operators so I checked online reviews like you might be doing right now and I can confirm that all the excellent reviews are real. Our contact person usually responded on the same day and they made sure we knew every detail before we had to pay anything. We were picked up at our hostel in Joburg even and the whole ride to Kruger was arranged. Sekekama Tented Camp was amazing - the tents were luxurious, everything was really clean and the food was really good. The staff is really helpful and helps out with anything. We did the 3-night 4-day glamping, and each day was just perfect (despite the getting up really early). The guides know what to do, take into account which animals you’d so desperately like to spot, and Kruger is a really special place. I’d definitely recommend this place!

Pilanesberg with MoAfrica
5/5

I did the 3 day Ivory Tree Game Lodge tour through Pilanesberg National Park with MoAfrika and I would definitely recommend these guys. It was so easy to book through Anthony and everything throughout the 3 days ran like clockwork. From being picked up by Sunny (the best Giraffe spotter there ever was), right from my Johannesburg hotel, to the multiple safaris through the park, it was the most awesome experience. Ivory Tree lodge is stunning and Themba, the safari tour guide we had, was amazing. We were so close to giraffes, elephants, zebras and lions, you could almost reach out and touch them. I was a solo traveller and felt so safe with these guys. Don’t go with anyone else. Go with MoAfrika!!

Incredibly efficient
5/5

As a last minute decision I wanted to plan a safari trip. MoAfrika was one tour company I contacted. I chose them because they were good value for money. I was concerned handing over a lot of money to someone I contacted on line. MoAfrika were just fantastic, they gave me options, they tried to fit in with my requests, they were expedient and organised like a truly well oiled machine. I was a female travelling alone and they arranged pick ups to and from my hotel that were always punctual. I was taken from Joburg to the Lodge I was staying at and back again (2 hr drive). I always felt safe and enjoyed chatting to their drivers too. I would want to use them again should I do another Safari.
Really impressed with their service!

Mr.Anthony & Mr.Sunny - super responsible, helpful, reliable, 5 star tour operators!
5/5

【Mr.Anthony】
Despite our tour date was fixed a day before, Anthony kept communicating with me, making sure everything is ok.
As I was travelling with a 6 years old child, the safety was the most important part of the travel, he kindly provided some good options and answered my questions so quickly that made us feel very comfortable.
On our last day, we had to wait for our transfer longer than expected as other guests were late, but Anthony offered a free lunch for us while waiting for the transfer arriving. It was very thoughtful of him.
If you have any questions about the safari or where to stay, etc, just ask Anthony. He will guide you to the right best option he has! Highly recommended for sure!

【Mr.Sunny】
He came pick us up from the JNB hotel. The journey was awesome and amazing with his kind hospitality and interesting talk. On the way to the Pilanesburg Bakbung Lodge, he explained about how locals live when driving. His talk was very interesting and so meaningful, that helped us learn about SA.
Once we entered the park and on the way to the lodge, he stopped the car every moment when he found animals and explained about the animals.
He is not a ranger, but he has massive knowledge about the animals, and it seemed like animals know him well that they do trust him. We saw lots of animals on the way to the lodge.
On our last day, Sunny was the one who came pick us up from the lodge and dropped us in the JNB airport. We were so happy to meet him again!
We had a nice talk on our way back to the airport. For every questions we had, Sunny answered right away. He’s so passionate about his job, we could understand this by talking with him. He is such a kind, interesting, caring and highly experienced person!

Overall, the journey to SA was great thank to Anthony and Sunny who are very responsible, helpful and caring.
We are hoping to go back to SA again, and definitely they will be the one to contact again!!!

Good safari experience but accommodation can be improved.
4/5

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.
4/5

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.
