Worthy experience
My best friend and I booked a Pilensberg day-trip via GetYourGuide 3 days before going, for 128€ per person.
Our pick up spot and time was at the @SandtonHotel at 6:00 AM. We didn’t stay at the hotel, so we had to choose it as a common pick up spot. We arrived at 5:56 and were told by the reception that the driver came at 5:45 and left a couple of minutes later. The reception had to contact the driver’s boss on our behalf so he could return to pick us up… We then enjoyed an eventless ride to a gas station after 1h for a break and finally to the reserve.
The morning “game” was good, it lasted close to 3 hours. We saw hippos, rhinos, elephants, zebras but no cats.
Lunch was good, and part of the package. Beef burger + a soda, it was good and served in a nice spot on the reserve.
The afternoon “game” was more disappointing, as it only lasted 1h25min, and for a long while, animals were hidden. We ended up seeing the same animals as in the morning + a giraffe up close. Still no cats.
Although nobody can control animals’ behaviors, the afternoon game felt rushed. I wish it lasted longer to increase chances to see rarer animals and enjoy the nature.
Desmond was a great guide, really funny and knowledgeable, with whom we felt in good hands.

Heart of Africa Safari Tours is a fantastic choice for your safari tour!
We had a wonderful safari with Heart of Africa Safari Tours from June 21 through June 27, 2024. We toured Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park. Everything about this trip was fantastic. Our guide, Ephata, was great at spotting the animals and pointing them out to us. Rarely did we spot an animal or group of animals before him, and we saw tons of animals, including all of the “Big 5”. In the western Serengeti, the wildebeest herds were everywhere, gathering to continue their great migration to the north. All of the lodges that Heart of Africa arranged for us were outstanding as well. Everything about this trip was great. We highly recommend Heart of Africa Safari Tours.

Great tour with our guide Léon
Here is the English translation:
A safari with our guide Léon, who was very friendly and had a great sense of humor. We saw many animals, and he did his best to find them. We got to see elephants and rhinoceroses up close. We could only see the lions from a distance, but as our guide told us, it's Mother Nature who decides which animals we get to see each day. The park is also very beautiful.

Welcoming, knowledgeable, calm, clear, professional and a genuinely nice person
Our guide Assad was a professional and genuinely nice person to lead our safari and he made it an unforgettable experience. Thanks to him, we spotted so many animals, despite it not being the best season for safari. The agency was also extremely helpful when it came to helping us with with accomodations, trips in Arusha and other logistics before and after the safari. We had a fantastic time and I would highly recommend the agency and the guide to anyone!

Leadwood absolutely blew me away with their outstanding service and attention to detail! The tours around Kilimanjaro, Arusha and Zanzibar were nothing short of incredible. I can’t express how grateful I am for their kindness and for making my trip truly unforgettable. If I ever get the chance to go back, I’ll definitely be reaching out to them again for another thrilling adventure! In short, if anyone asks, I wholeheartedly recommend Leadwood for an extraordinary experience!

Fantastic!
From the moment we enquired Benjamin was so responsive answering all our questions and curating our perfect itinerary.
We had the most fabulous time on our 4 day safari and Benjamin and Alex showed us all that the Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti had to offer and giving us insightful knowledge on the area, animals and culture.
They gave us an unforgettable experience and memories to last a lifetime.
