Very nice experience and...

Published on Mar, 2025

Very nice experience and well accomodaties. Although the drive from Johannesburg was 2,5 hours, it was very comfortable. The guide in the park was a real nature lover and gave a lot of additional information. Time and money was well spend on this trip

Exceptional Pilanesberg Tour

Published on Mar, 2025

I was excited to book this tour because of what it had to offer. However I was a bit weary of the travel time to and from, but SIBU our driver made the trip worth the while. Professional, friendly, engaging, knowledgeable and safe. As for my day at Pilanesberg it was awesome. Our tour guide was fantastic. He was quite instrumental in us seeing all the animals except for lions because he was relentless in his desire to make sure we see as many of the animals that habitat the park. I totally enjoyed the day.

A excellent safari experience in South Africa

Published on Feb, 2025

The tour was excellent. The transfer driver (Sam) arrived on time and along the way he gave us some interesting facts about Johannesburg and the surrounding area, always in a good mood. In Pilanesberg National Park, the safari guide (Thabo) was excellent in his search for animals and told us interesting facts about each animal we saw.

Convenient, fun, perfect one day trip from joburg

Published on Feb, 2025

Pick up and drop off from hotel made it convenient. The tour guide was knowledgeable and created good vibes. Fantastic experience, just make sure you only go on a sunny day as animals tend to retreat from the main spots when it rains.

Very Good Safari with very experienced guide

Published on Feb, 2025
