Magical taste of South Africa
5/5

Just returned from a wonderful safari in Kruger organised by Norman in Mmilo. It was our first trip to Africa and everything was so well organised and ran smoothly. We had 4 game drives where our guide Oupa (hope spelling is correct) with his eagle eyes guided us to see a wealth of wildlife and educated us a little about everything we were seeing. Spent a day exploring the Panorama Route, spectacular scenery and a great guide in Victor who was a joy to spend time with. The wildlife we saw was mesmerising, matched by the warmth and kindness of the people we met. I look forward to using Mmilo again as it won’t be my only trip to Africa.

Outstanding Service & Experience
5/5

Patrick and Norman with Mmilo Tours were wonderful to work with and accommodating when I needed to rebook my Safari due to a flight cancellation. When I arrived in South Africa, I had a wonderful time and all the details were taken care of. All I needed to do was enjoy the experience! I highly recommend Mmilo Tours if you are considering an African Safari!

A History Lesson
5/5

After The Cradle Of Humankind Tour was cancelled because of the heavy rains at the cave,Patrick organized a tour of Pretoria.While I had visited the Union Bldgs. on a prior trip,this tour was the first time I had visited the Kruger House Museum and the Voortrekker Monument.Willem,our guide was a fountain of information and made the history of the settlers of south Africa come alive.Willem dropped us off at the airport for a flight to Capetown and was kind enough to help with our bags and lead us to the ticket counter,

Very good organization and support on 4 Day Kruger Safari & Panorama Route
5/5

I was very happy with the program and support by Norman from Mmilo Tours. I got a lot of very detailed information and instructions upfront and everything was confirmed shortly before my trip. All mails got instant feedback and booking and payment process was easy and secure. All transfers, tours (Blyde Canyon) and safaris (Kruger sunrise and sunset game drive) were on time and an enjoyable experience. I liked it very much and was very happy with the service. I would always consult Mmilo Tours if I was taking another trip.
Just Pestana Lodge wasn't in the best shape. It seemed to me that the lodge has gotten old and renovations and maintenance are very necessary. They had a massive flood before I got there but stained furniture and service which did not pay attention has nothing to do with a flood. But that is not on Mmilo Tours.

Mmilo Tours went above and beyond for us, providing a magnificent safari experience.
5/5

Our group of four booked a 3-day luxury tour in Kruger National Park with Mmilo Tours, working specifically with Norman Lok. Unfortunately, just as we were traveling to Kruger, the weather and massive flooding there resulted in our lodge at Kruger being shut down very quickly (guests at our lodge were being evacuated by helicopter!). Norman persevered in trying to contact us about this situation at Kruger; however, he was unable due to our group not having access to wifi (due to a combination of load shedding and air travel on our part). That didn't stop Norman -- he actually intercepted our group at the airport before we boarded our plane to Kruger. And within just a few hours before he intercepted us, Norman booked an entirely different 3-day luxury safari for us at a different national park (Plenisberg) where weather was not an issue. We had an absolutely amazing experience on our newly booked safari in Plenisberg National Park. The staff, safari guide, and accommodations at Tshukudu Game Lodge were brilliant, providing an incredibly moving and profound experience for us. Our safari was an amazing end to our 2.5-week visit to South Africa, and our safari was everything and more that we were hoping for and needed. I cannot say enough positive things about Mmilo Tours, Norman Lok, and our lodge staff and safari guide. It. Was. Awesome.

Excellent tour operator
5/5

Ower/Director Patrick planned the trip to perfection. We started at the Skukuza camp for a night, to participate the night drive and the next morning' walk. The night drive led us to a lion couple resting in the wood! We then moved to the Sabi Sabi private reserve. Great experience there! Food, lodging, AND game viewing are all perfect. To top the experience, we had a private Panorama route trip. The scenery of the route is magnificent. Our guide/drive Willem is courteous, and very knowledgeable. We truly had a trip of lifetime.

Patrick as our agent is patient, explaining everything in detail clearly. He's everything one can expect from a tour operator. Highly recommended.

Cape Town/Victoria Falls/Hwange Safari Trip
5/5

Amazing!! everything was booked through Mmilo Tours (Patrick) and everything went flawless. Our stay at Table Bay Hotel was excellent and our tours with Brenda were terrific. Our trip to Victoria Falls was amazing and our stay at Victoria Falls Hotel was great! Phanuel, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and terrific. We did a river dinner cruise along with a "Boma" dinner show. What a blast! Phanuel also drove us to Hwange National Park where we were picked up by Nkosi, our "The Hide" safari guide, very informative and terrific. The stay at the Hide was another experience in itself. Right next to a water hole. We highly recommend Mmilo Tours (Patrick) and thank them for an experience of a lifetime!!.

Every detailed covered!
5/5

What a fabulous custom tour! Patrick arranged for us to tour Capetown, Victoria Falls, and safari in Hwange National Park. Every detail was covered, and I would not change a thing. We were met at the Capetown airport by our guide, who took us to Table Bay Hotel, and arranged to pick us up in the morning. From then on, we experienced all Capetown has to offer without having to worry about transportation or travel details. After 3 days, we flew to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and were met with another tour guide, who also ensured that our experience was trouble free! Our last leg included being driven to Hwange by our guide where we met our guide form The Hide in Hwange. The trip took longer than we anticipated, as we were one and a half hours into the reserve. We had a phenomenal experience at The Hide, and our guide was knowledgeable and fun. The Hide has its own watering hole, so we had the added bonus of observing the wildlife even when we weren't on a drive. I Highly recommend!
