Full-Day Pilanesburg Nature Reserve Tour

Saw Big 5 and other wildlife animals, 1 hour lunch break inside national park cafe, simple meal + 1 soft drink.

Overall your was great. Tremendous value. Your driver was timely and attentive and very informative with good humor as well. Was able to see 4 of the 5 Big Five. The lunch provided was surprisingly good. Overall, great value!

Really nice trip, highly recommended! we didn't see all big 5 but our driver (our driver at the close viacle which also was our driver that took us from the hotel) tried his best to search with us more animals. He was very nice

The one thing that was not clear was that it was only one game drive in the open jeep and then the other one in the enclosed van.

Luckily I was able to upgrade.

Saw only 2 of big 5 but still a fun day and great tour guide! Easy transportation.

Our driver was on time to pick us up. He gave good information about the area and culture of South Africa along the ride. Our tour guide was funny and we had a good time with her around the reserve. She made it a good experience and we got to see three of the Big Five. I recommend this package to anyone interest in the Pilanesburg Nature Reserve Tour.

An amazing day after a great stuff up by us, we had booked the tour in advance as you do, however after doing so many things we got ours days mixed up and late on in the morning of the day we had booked the tour realised we should have been on a tour. After quick email and an apology to the company we booked with they re-sheduled us for the follow day at no extra cost.
Once at the Reserve the day past quickly with the sighting of many animals, many thanks.

The safari itself was a good experience but the bus ride from Johannesburg to Pilanesburg was very uncomfortable. This is a 2 hour ride each way and the bus transporting customers needs to be bigger with comfortable sitting.

We toured the nature reserve through MoAfrika tours. We left our hotel near Johannesburg at 5.30am and after picking up other guests we did the 3 hour drive to Pilanesburg.
There was initially a bit of hanging round while we waited for our safari truck but once we got going it was worth it.
Our driver was Peter who proved to be very knowledgeable and tried his hardest to find the big 5 for us.
We first spotted some Impala, then Wildebeests followed by Zebras and Giraffe. Peter then spotted a group of Elephants making their way through the bush so we shot off to try and cut them off. We eventually stopped right next to their trail and had the most marvellous views as the Elephants passed within a few feet of us.
Further exploration of the park unearthed a family of warthogs, kudu, tortoise, baboons and 2 white rhinos as well as more wildebeest, giraffe, zebra. We also spotted a lion high up in one of the rocky hills and the noses of a few hippos in one of the lakes.
A fantastic tour was just about to come to an end and we were on our way back when we came across a leopard taking a midday snooze.
So a great 4 hour safari and we managed to see 4 of the 5. Fantastic.

I am not one for animals or rough outdoor excursions but this day tour was a magnificent, really up close way to see the Big 5. Our guide was great and allowed us to sleep during the 2 hr drive to Pilanesburg from Jo'burg. He was a little late in picking us up because he wanted to help another couple get to another nearby attraction - Sun City. He made up for it by connecting us with another tour guide once we got closer to the city, who drove us back to the hotel. The tour was a great experience and the park was amazing. The lunch was also a great value and we enjoyed the options. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants the full safari experience but doesn't have many days to sacrifice.

Though it was a long drive there and back, the actual Safari was very, very good. We spotted 4 of the big 5.

This is a good tour and reasonable if you only have a day or so in Joburg for game viewing.

A wonderful experience would recommend it to all who just want a day safari
