Simply superb..
Squeezed in a Safari during a business trip with the very little time and Patrick Hanratty was very helpful making it all possible. He has managed to organise it all to the very last detail. Had an amazing experience with Mmilo Tours. My tour guide Willem Heckroodt was superb - prompt, wealth of knowledge and very friendly. Thank you so much for making this happen.

A beautifully planned and coordinated itinerary for South Africa, Victoria Falls and Botswana
From start to finish the tour package put together by Patrick was great. We tried to see and experience as many different sites as possible in a short amount of time but Patrick coordinated it all into a pleasurable experience and a fun time for all. We had to go through Johannesburg during our travels and on each occasion and Patrick met us at the airport to assist and check in on us. Charles, the guide in Cape Town and Patrick, in Johannesburg and Pretoria made the trip a memorable vacation, where we all enjoyed ourselves. Their friendly and informative way of showing us the city sights and being accommodating to our needs is definitely worth mentioning. The hotel accommodations were good except for the hotel in Kruger Park, which exceeded expectations and definitely added to the overall satisfaction of our trip. The safari in Kruger with the local guides were helpful and informative. Due to the time of year we were there, we were able to see the natural wildlife but not in the quantities one might expect. But in any case we saw a leopard, lion, white and black rhinos, and the rest of the big five. We also visited Victoria Falls and Chobe Park in Botswana, both places were pleasant and again accommodating to our special needs. We were traveling with two eighty-year young people who required a bit of help. Overall I would highly recommend Mimlo Tours for your travel requirements in southern Africa, for there friendly service and coordinating a wonderful trip.

Amazing once in a lifetime 3-day tour
My guide was Willem Heckroodt. He picked me up at my hotel in Pretoria. He told me a lot about the country, the landscape and historic dates on our way to Pilanesberg. In the reservoir he really had the eye for the details and showed me not only lions and co. but very hard to see owls. The combination with the hotel tours and his private tours and the information he shared made it just an unforgettable experience. He brought me safely back to the airport in Jo'burg.

Mmilo tours was efficient, professional, and focused on deliveringthe best trip possible.
I worked with Patrick from Mmilo Tours to schedule a four day Kruger Safari through KWA Madwala and a shark diving excursion with Marine Dynamics. Patrick and the Mmilo team did a fantastic job orchestrating my trip. Patrick provided wonderful insight and truly provided an unforgettable vaction experience.
I utilized KWA Madwala for the four day Kruger safari and the experience was exceptional. The accommodations were wonderful and the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Obed took us on the actual safari and provided an unrivaled experience. I would highly recommend utilizing KWA MadwaLA.
For the great white excursion, Patrick set us up with Marine Dynamics who also provided an out of this world experience. The crew was wonderful and the operation was perfectly executed. I would recommend Marine Dynamics to anyone looking for a superb cage diving experience.
In short Patrick and Mmilo Tours were exceptional. Mmilo is a five star operation that I would recommend to anyone!

Fantastic and entertaining safari
Squeezed the safari in while travelling on business with 2 friends, and really glad we arrived a day early to be able to do this.
Patrick was an amazing host, entertained us with the history of South Africa as we drove to the park. Yes its an early start but you get there as the park opens when the animals are most active and its well worth it.
His knowledge of the animals and where they would be was great. Lots of views of the animals without being surrounded by large group of safari tours.
Finished the day with a lovely meal at the safari lodge.
Plan to return with my family so they can experience the fantastic safari. The price difference of a private safari compared to a large tour bus was minimal and well worth it.

Great Day
I had a really good experience with Mmilo Tours. First of all, Patrick was great, from the start to the end. He was extremely kind and even helped me with accommodation, as he was worried about the neighbourhood that I first chose to stay in and suggested that I move to a safer one in Johannesburg. My Safari with Willem was amazing too. He was a great guide, showing and explaining everything for me. He even took pictures for me, since I forgot my camera! My day was as good as it possibly could have been and I strongly recommend their services.

Great day Safari to Pilansberg
Very good communication during booking and prior to the tour.
Our driver Willem was punctual, very knowledgeable and best of all he brought his own camera with an amazing zoom. He later gave us a link to his Facebook where we could share his pictures of our day. No Cats seen this time but everything else including an amazing encounter with 3 Rhino.
Lunch was at a beautiful lodge with great food and amazing scenery.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour.

Would definitely recommend this trip to Pilanesburg national park
This is a great safari to get to see a lot of African wildlife in a natural habitat. Willem was very knowledgeable and we spent a very enjoyable 12 hours in his company. Lunch was also above average for a tour. Basically, - a top day out exploring African wildlife.

Outstanding!
This was the first safari for me and my friends and Mmilo and our guide, Willem, did not disappoint. Service was for our sunrise safari was professional-- it was seamless and prompt. As for the safari experience itself, Willem was extremely knowledgeable about the park, its animals and the vegetation. We are a curious group, and he was able to answer all of our questions thoroughly. Willem is patient; he would slow down or back up to ensure that we got a chance to thoroughly observe the animals, and was very respectful of the animals. On the other hand,we witnessed guides from other companies speeding through the experience in an effort to catch the next animal. We were able to see three of the Big 5 during our one-day experience. And lunch at Bakubung Lodge was wonderful. Willem also took pictures throughout our day, which he shared with us. The lodge is beautiful, and modern yet cozy. The scenery, service, food and drinks were great. My only regret is that we didn't have time for a multi-day safari. I'll definitely be backand will plan accordingly!
