Your tour guide makes all the difference! - Your tour guide makes all the difference! MK was our tour guide and he was so knowledgeable and chill and we felt completely safe going to the park and with a 2 Hour drive it was worth every bit of it. We saw so many animals got great footage and overall truly enjoyed our experience and felt like we got a good idea of what South Africa really was I would highly highly highly suggest you take this trip and ask for MK “who is usually booked” as your guide oppose others it truly made the difference.

One of the most memorable experiences of my life - I had the opportunity to make this tour in september, and the experience was far beyond my expectations. The guide Mkateko Maluleke couldn't be more friendly and helpful. Explained me everything that I should expect from the tour. Told me stories about the places that we were passing through our way to Pilanesberg, and the most important: He picked me up on time! There wasn't 1 minute of delay. As a world traveler, I totally recommend taking this or any of the other tours thar Virgio Tours offer. If you need more tips about their service, I'll be glad to help.

Close by park to Johannesburg to witness the Big5 - 2-2.5 hour drive from Johannesburg. Was able to see 2 of the Big 5. Tour guide MK was fun and knowledgeable on hunting and other matters. Was a good experience all in all. Would recommend to others who are staying in Johannesburg to visit Pilanesburg national park. Note: The listing states free lunch and ride on open Cab. These were not provided.
