Good combination of safari with a really good guide
I would have given 5 stars, but the coordination and organisation of the first two days was a bit confusing. Too much different people in different hotels. So I got late to my dinner at the first night. The tour itself was perfect. I have seen all big 5 and lots of cats. The parcs are amazing and the lodges great. I booked the luxury tour and it was. The guide tried to reach all of our needs. Thanks for that.

Very committed and always available if there are any problems. Motivated team of tour guides!
We were a group of three and booked an overnight safari at short notice. MoAfrica was recommended to us by airline crews. Booking, transport and lodge were very well organized. Only the payment was a bit complicated and only possible via payfast. This payment method was new to me! Already upon arrival in Pilanesberg we could see many elephants, rhinos, giraffes, zebras and even cheetahs. The Ivory Tree Lodge is very luxurious and we were well looked after. On the second day, the program had to be shortened due to strikes by the park employees. We all agreed - next time we'll stay a little longer! Thank you MoAfrica for the beautiful safari!

First safari wxceeded expectations
Overall the trip was amazing. We ended up having a much more luxury experience than anticipated or requested, but now I have learned and will not need that for my next safari. My tour operator was available with any questions and was a great support before we left.

Friendly and fast responding operator
We (2 people) booked a 7-Days private Lodge Safari containing Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha (Hells Gate Park) and Amboseli. Josef Muneeni from Parrot Safaris organized all well, and answered immediately if questions arose. Special requests were also taken into account. Overall communication was good. In the design of the course of the safari, the communication could have been improved at some points. For example, we were not aware that we could have switched the Morning Drive of Day 7 to Day 6 and then taken the early train to Mombasa from Emali on Day 7 saving us 5 hours of driving.
Joseph kept contact with us via WhatsApp all the time during the safari and checked whether everything is going well and I am feeling comfortable. Accommodation in Kenya was in very comfortable lodges with good facilities. Especially the lodge in Naivasha was amazing. All lodges hat nice pools and served a varity of good food.
Our guide and driver Martin was a great game spotter and explained all about the animals. He was supportive, funny, punctual and always organized our meals and schedules for best chances to see as much animals as possible. Additionally, he was a very good driver and knows bis car by heart. We can definitely recommend Martin.

Well worth the cost.
I did the over night trip to Pilanesburg. The pick up and drop off went well, the hotel was beautiful, meals were amazing (lunch, dinner and breakfast), and the safaris were fun. What we didn’t see in animals (no lions, leopards, or buffalo, but saw many others) was made up in beautiful scenery. Each day we saw plenty of elephants and some playing in the water which was pretty interesting.
I would do it again and would bring my family too.

Great budget tour!
Had a great guide called Herman who was so amazing.
Loved the organisation of the tour.
Was good value for money.
The communication with the company could have been better due to misalignment of timings.
There needed to be snacks offered. We'd go from a 12 o'clock lunch to a 730pm meal.

it is a good tour operator, but it should consider the convenience of guest as a top priority
Seven days safari tour gave us an unforgettable memory. My wife and I really enjoyed it. The driver(Bonface) was an excellent guide too. He was a professional guide and tried to show us more exciting scenes and animals. I would like to comment to a tour operator about the scheduled program. We would be happier if we would receive a daily program which should be explained as the time sequence. Your tour program has a daily starting one, so several teams which have different programs started to tour together and separated later and joined another team. Those kinds of arrangements caused long waits and longer driving courses which were very inconvenient for us. I recommend you would better to arrange each starting team with the same scheduled program, even though we can not have a daily tour program.

Incredibly helpful in choosing a lodge
Wayne was so helpful in helping me sift through the different tour and lodging options. We even hopped on a Zoom call, which made this process much more personable and efficient! My and my 3 friends went to the Kapama Southern Lodge on a 4 day safari and it was perfect! The only issue we had was there was some sort of miscommunication between our shuttle driver and the Kapama staff so there was nobody there to pick us up from the shuttle drop off location when we arrived. And on our return trip the shuttle was half an hour earlier than expected and we felt in a rush on our way out.
