“A good value overall - This trip was a very good value for the money. We had a private driver and escort who picked us up from our hotel. It was about a two-hour and 15-minute drive out to the Pilanesberg national park. We saw many animals and had an elephant follow our safari jeep for part of the way towards the end of the safari.” - Reviewed at 2023-10-17
