Worth getting up early!
5/5

Thoroughly enjoyed our Safari with Sebu. Well worth getting up early to see these amazing animals in their natural habitat. Our pictures are superb but the memory of this adventure far surpasses any picture you can take. Lunch at the lodge was a nice add!

Traveling around Johannesburg and surroundings with excellent tour guide - Mmilo's Patrick Hanratty.
5/5

We spent about five days with Mmilo's Patrick H. He was always, prompt, courteous, and fun. He provided reliable advice about Jo-berg (whoever knew about the Gandhi museum in the outskirts?!) and drove us to Kruger National Park. In addition, he recommended a fine guest house (Simonsberg) in Stellenbosch run by an extraordinary woman.

Out of this world experience
5/5

Huge thanks to Patrick and Mmilo tours for a great three day experience on South Africa. As well as a tour of Pretoria including a unique visit to the holding cells below the palace of justice and a half day trip to the Ann van dyk cheetah centre, Patrick took me all the way to Mafikeng. A journey of around 3.5 hours each way. We searched for and found the siege graveyard, and Patrick was most patient as we walked around this site. A!tus picked me up on a public holiday ready for the next day trips. The pre trip organisation and communication were great and Patrick dropped me off at the airport for the flight back home. Full marks to this team an definitely now on my redial button when I next visit South Africa.

Trip of a Lifetime, arranged and guided by Mmilo Tours!
5/5

In Johannesburg for a week, on business, 3 colleagues and I were able to book-end our conference with a mini safari in the Pilanesberg Game Reserve and a trip to the Ukutula Lodge and Lion Park, all arranged through Mmilo Tours. We enjoyed fantastic morning and afternoon excursions into the Pilanesberg Game Reserve where we encountered 4 of Africa's big 5 game animals (the Leopards' camouflage was too good for our eyes). The food, lodgings and facilities in Pilanesberg were absolutely first rate, far exceeding my expectations! We closed our trip with a trip to the Elephant Reserve and an amazing overnight stay at the Ukutula Lodge; again, food and lodging were excellent. Our itinerary was suggested by Patrick at Mmilo Tours, who was also our guide. Patrick proved to be great company on the trip, sharing freely his wealth of knowledge of South Africa and all its wonders. Patrick also transported us to and from the airport, and the hotel that hosted our conference. If I'm lucky enough to get to travel to South Africa again I will be sure to arrange another outing with Mmilo Tours.

Amazing unforgettable experience
5/5

Well what can i say, I travel often and do many exercurions however I can honestly say i have never met anyone as professional and knowledgeable as Patrick. The whole process of booking and gathering information was extremely easy and professional.
Now for that moment you have all been waiting for, the day itself was beautiful. Patrick is so patient and knowledgable. What made this experience even more amazing is the excitement that Patrick shared for the animals too.
He would take us up close and made us feel very safe by giving us clear consise intructions on how we are suppose to move etc so we don't scare the animals away or put yourself in harms way.
I could go on and on but my advise is simple, do the tour it's an experience you would never forget.
Tip- book the pick up as its so worth it!!!!

Pilanesberg Safari, Elephant Sanctuary and Lion Reserve
5/5

I've had the opportunity to visit Johannesburg the past 4 years on business. Each time I've managed to arrange a bit of personal time during my trip. Each time I've used Mmilo Tours and been very happy with their services. This year I spent one night at the Bakubung Lodge in the Pilanesberg National Park enjoying an afternoon and early morning safari. We saw 4 of the big 5 in the park. Only the leopard was not seen. The accommodations and food were excellent. Pilanesberg is a great place to do a safari if you only have a few days. It's only a few hours from Johannesburg.
We also had an opportunity to visit an elephant sanctuary then spent a night at Ukutula Lion Reserve. Ukutula is a unique place where you can walk with lions on the savannah then play with baby lions. Truly a once in a life time experience. The accommodations are excellent and food was great.

Excellent trip at the right time of day
5/5

I had a solo safari with the Mmilo guide Willem, who picked me up at 0400 in Johannesburg, in time to be at Pilanesberg when the park opened at 0630. It is very important to go early in the day! Other tours were due to depart at 0900 and that would have been too late. We drove through the park for five hours and saw most of the Big Five -- lions on the road, elephants on the road, rhinos on the road - zebras and more. It was a fantastic experience and a great addition to a short visit to South Africa. The guide had many years of experience in the park, and was expert at spotting and identifying wildlife. I recommend Mmilo highly.

Have used Mmilo all over South Africa
5/5

We are currently living in South Africa and have used Mmilo Tours for several trips all over South Africa for us and family. Patrick is very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of South Africa and is very responsive by phone and email. His recommendations are always spot on and he is open to one's preferences, too. I even had to modify a trip with a sudden injury that put me in a wheelchair right before a family member arrived for a visit and with Patrick's help we were able to complete the trip anyway. We are mostly self drive types but we will use him for our next safari. Can't wait!
