I have never done a safari before but it is a great experience. During my safari trips in South Africa I have seen so many wild life animals like lions, hippos, elephants and zebras close to our vehicle.

I had the privilege of travelling to south africa with my friend charlo. the safari was amazing

4 / 5 4 /5

we travelled to Pilanesberg National Park
We booked a 3-day trip to Pilanesberg National Park staying at wa Kwa Maritane Bush Lodge it nice accommodations and an amazing chef.
Our itinerary was well planned and executed. The safari was amazing - our driver was good and he didn't disappoint , given that he has longstanding experience, he knew all the best spots to find the animals like hyena, and owls, Black rhinoceros, Cape buffalo, African lion, African leopard.
If you are travelling to South Africa definitely consider Go Pilanesberg National Park, and hopefully you will be lucky

As someone who is interested in all wildlife, South Africa has many of the prime species and a highly developed Safari industry offering excellent accommodation, transport and hospitality.

For bush vibe we rather visit Namiba as it is less populated.

Excellent natural parks, great landscape, good infrastructure to support tourism, relatively well connected, reasonable prices and wide range of options for hotels and restaurants.

It's hard to believe Madikwe was once farmland. It seems like the animals have always been there. They've clearly adapted and it is truly a wild place that is so expansive. It would take a lifetime to experience it all.
