Fun in the sun

I enjoyed the tour guide that added jokes to the history. He also tried his best to find the lions and leopards. He made the bumpy ride and long day enjoyable. I laughed while I bounced.

Safari Trip from Joburg

Drive from Joburg to final destination is about 2-1/2 hours. Some shops you stop at during the travel may recognize tourist easily. Beware.

Hi there Stefan, Thank you for your review, yes the national is a good 2 - 2/12 hours drive from Johannesburg, and we are aware that some of the street vendors to approach our guests, we are working closing with the local community to ask the vendors to please note approach our guests unless the guest is showing interest. We are glad that you had a great time on safari and hope to see you soon.

Seeing animals in their natural environments. Single person addition is too much. I might prefer without that addition.

Elephants galore.
Marisa_B

Perfect day out there. It was early and I didn't get breakfast before leaving so I stopped at a gas station for a little food before heading out. The lunch on sight, isn't great. But that's ok because I didn't go for the lunch. The only thing that's a bumper is the single person supplement. Because I traveled alone I had to pay nearly $70USD more. I didn't get lucky enough to see lions so I'll just have to go again!

Marisa, thank you for your awesome review, it is greatly appreciated. The restaurant in the Pilanesberg has just re-opened as the number of guests are increasing and we will certainly inform them to please up their standards, however, we have never had any feedback from guests about the lunch, but we will inform them about your reveiw. We are re-looking into our Single traveler rates that we implemented over the COVID 19 period as we had to make sure that we cover all of our costs. Please do send me a direct email and we will check on your booking and if we had other guests on the tour with you, we will certainly refund the difference in the Sharing / Single rates - res1@moafrikatours.com Hope to have you back on sdafari with us, so we can find those Lions for you...

Worth the trip from Joburg

This trip from Joburg is absolutely worth it. Pilanesberg is a beautiful park, and we saw a good amount of wildlife. Our guide was knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions we had. I learned a lot about the wildlife. Definitely worth it if you're in Johannesburg!
