So many animals within 2hrs! - This was our second game drive with MoAfrika Tours. This time was an evening safari. Doreen was our driver and she was informative & hilarious. Within 2hrs, we had seen so many animals. Im talking lion, rhino, giraffe, elephant, zebra, cheetah + more. Best Safari finished off with drinks and snacks. Highly recommended

Book the private option if possible - Very early morning start. Trimanate was fantastic. Very lighthearted experience & made us feel exclusive. Picked up on time from our hotel. You dont expect it to be cold & rainy in South Africa, but it was. He offered us fleeced poncho’s which were very welcomed. The private option allowed us all a window seat & we saw so many animals. Finished off with a hot coffee & morning tea. We booked with MoAfrika again during the same trip as we had such a good time. 100% recommended!

Mo-Africa and Petrus Bakubung game reserve drive. - An amazingly lucky day today. We saw so much and feel so privileged. A great big thank you to Mo-Africa and to our wonderful driver Petrus. He couldn’t have been more knowledgable and so kind. He explained every animal we saw, their eating, mating, digestion and so so much more. He took us to the best stops and there was no pressure for us to rush. When he said he was at our service, he meant every word of it. Kudos to Eteus - we want him back tomorrow.

Very good guide! - Our guide Triminate led us into the park like a chef. He listened to our requests to see the beautiful wildlife (white rhinos, hippos, lions, elephants, giraffes and many others). Thank you very much.

Nice Day Tour Game Drive - Long tour. More than 12 hours in total, when you factor pickup and drop off in Johannesburg and a coffee stop on the 2.5 hour ride to Pilanesberg National Park. The game drive starts promptly at 9 am and it’s 9 people to a vehicle. I was assigned a vehicle with people I did not arrive with. I did not have a chance to bond with them in the vehicle during the game drive so on the return home, I felt out of place in the van, since I didn’t see what they saw or experienced what they did. The day was overcast and cold so the blankets came in handy. And while we saw some of the Big 5, we didn’t see the big cats, other than a leopard that was resting far in the distance and you needed a DSLR with a telephoto lens to see it. One person was lucky enough to take a clear pic. This is the biggest disappointment with this tour: it is NOT what you see on tv. No big cats wandering across the road, or running into a pride of lions eating a kill. This reminded me more of a “safari park” aka amusement park in the U.S., only bigger and harder to find the animals. Still worth it if you are short on time or funds and can’t affford a week out in the bush.
