A pleasant one-day safari
We appreciate the speed of response the company answered our emails. Our guide, Willem, was great. He met us at the airport when our flight arrived at 4am. He was very informative about the safari, animals, and country in general. He made an great effort to look for animals. Overall, we were very pleased with the company and our guide, and happy to recommend them to future travelers.
Pilansberg Day Tour
Brilliant private tour... Williem was amazing and had all the knowledge we could expect.
We even got a brief history of South Africa and the park. The highligh was the baby rhino we spotted... Most memorable...
Got 3/5 Big 5 but was an amazing experience. Will go again to cross out the other 2.

Excellent holidays, despite of a few timings issues
We had an amazing holiday. The hotel, the tour, the views all were incredible.
We had a few stressful moments where the timings were incorrect and the hotel tried to double charge us at the end of our stay, but luckily they got resolved quickly. We don't know of the issue was with the suppliers or the agent. Luckily we did not miss the flight or any of the rides. We had an excellent guide for safaris - Oupa, who made sure we were not waiting unnecessarily for an hour for the sunrise drives. (As per original bookings - we would have had to wake up unnecessarily and then wait for ages)
Overall, we had amazing holidays, and the issues got resolved very quickly.

Posted on May 30, 2018Thank you Kat! Apologies for the timing issues. Just before your tour we do issue vouchers with the latest updated times and the online quotation is always updated with these too and visible on your mobile/pc. Confusion can arise when referring to older emails and not to the vouchers/online quotation where updates will have been affected. But maybe we should emphasize this point more to clients. At the end of the day we are available by email, text message,whats app, and phone 24/7 to query or reschedule anything and this is why we were able to quickly correct. We have investigated the payment issue and it was to do with the lodges booking system. We paid Pestana Lodge well before your arrival. We have discussed it with them and they have assured us it will not reoccur to our future clients.
Glad you enjoyed Pestana Lodge it is perfectly situated next to the Crocodile River with great views and yes Oupa is very reliable and knowledgeable safari driver!

a tour operator to trust!
It is my second experience with Mmilo Tours and I can't be more satisfied about my choice. Patrick and Jamie and all the staff went over and beyond to satisfy all our requests and organize the trip of our dreams. The safari in Botswana was perfect in every detail, the attention to the quality, support before and throughout the trip have been exemplary: it was our first time in Botswana so we wanted to have our trip organized by a company we trusted. Mmilo Tours have confirmed the good trust we have placed in them, they have given all the info we required in order to get prepared in advance, which was very important for us given it was our first safari. There is not even one thing that I could think could have been different or done more from them. Thank you!!!

Excellent tour operator, great guides
Mmilo Tours organized a Safari tour to Pilanesberg Park where we stayed at Bakubung Bush Lodge. Our private guide picked us up at our hotel in Pretoria. In the car on the way to Pilanesberg we learned a lot about South Africa, the Safari park and the animals, so when we arrived to the park we were well prepared. The hours we spent together in the car we learned much more. The guide was enthusiastic and very well prepared.
Bakubung Bush Lodge is an excellent place to stay. We wish we would have more time, we could easily have spent one more night.
The last day our guide drove us to our hotel in Johannesburg.
Everyting arranged by Mmilo Tours was well organized, accommodation suggested by them was excellent choices.
Highly recommended

Excellent organization. Patrick and Jamies take care of you at any stage!
Communication was great. Patrick and Jamie were always there for us, by phone, emails and even Whatsapp. Service was excellent and the safari was just perfect! We saw the Big 5 twice in 2 days!

Our guide Willem provided transportation to and from Lukimbi Lodge.
My husband had 2 weeks notice that he would be traveling to South Africa for work. We decided to extend the trip for vacation. Mmilo Tours responded within 24 hours to my inquiries. The information they provided helped us in our decision to chose Lukimbi Lodge for a 4 day/ 3night safari. Lukimbi Lodge exceeded our expectations! All of the staff at Lukimbi Lodge went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, safe, and exciting. We saw the Big 5 and so much more. Our Guide Werner is very skilled and knowledgeable about the wildlife and surroundings. He is an asset to the organization! The rest of the staff, including Tracker KK, Kernel, Empress, Meaghan, and Natalie (I believe that is her name, she greeted us upon arrival) and all of the guides who helped to make happy hour fun, made our stay fun and comfortable. We loved our chalet with a private pool which we used on the hot afternoons. The food was good. The chalet was clean, and made up twice daily. Guide Willem provided transportation to and from Lukimbi Lodge. He was very prompt and shared his extensive knowledge of the area as we travelled to Lukimbi Lodge. On our return trip to OR Tambo International Airport Willem took us on a scenic route through mountain passes, waterfalls, and lookouts. It was beautiful. I would highly recommend Mmilo Tours and especially Lukimbi Lodge!
