Great day at Pilanersberg - Second time doing this tour (first time in 2022) and it was still the same quality. Definitely recommend it for people coming to Joburg and wanting to experience a day in Pilanesberg Park.

Great experience - We were able to see elephants, rhinos and giraffes very close from our car. Unfortunately, we saw no leopards or buffalo and only one lion. In any case, the guides and drivers were very friendly. Overall, it was a great experience.

Exceptional guide, awesome experience - We had an exceptional day trip around Pilanesberg. Our guide, Thabo, was knowledgeable, personable and funny! He showed us things other guides miss and was so informative about the animals we were watching and their behaviours. He didn’t just give us stats about the animals. He went into detail about their social behaviours, grooming habits, etc. He clearly loves his job and his enthusiasm and commitment and motivation showed. Thank you Thabo. You were fantastic!

Best tour of Joannesburg - The pack is beautiful, huge and the animals are well cared for. We were able to see the 5 bigs and some others. Very exciting to see the animals loose in your hungry.

🇿🇦 Amazing South Africa Tour - It's perfect, I didn't expect this trip to be so good~ The driver arrived on time in the morning, and an amiable little black brother, very attentive to how our passengers felt ~ Once we got to Pilanesberg national park, we had a guide to take us for fun - we also met new people during the trip, I hope to participate in more activities on the platform next time ~

My trip to Mauritius Jan 2025 - Our driver picked us up promptly from the Airbnb and we had a personal tour the whole day. The spiritual lake and statues were my favorite. And the adventure park

Well organised,if only the park guid concentrated on giving you what you had paid for - The pick up was early which suited us as we were ready in the hotel lobby,the driver was a nice friendly chap.the game drive was on time and we saw the majority of the animals with the high lights being a mother Rhino and it’s baby and a large heard of Elephants around thirty crossing the road dead in front of the vehicle.the only down side was lunch was 1 hour 40 minutes and we had to pry the game driver out of the restaurant to continue the drive making the afternoon part of the safari only an hour long ,the guide said she had to leave the park because she had another game drive later ,in total the around 6 hour game drive ended up being a four hour drive .not good when paying £122
