Exceptional I did enjoy the trip our Tour guide was very good and explained everything to us d
Mokolo is a cheerful, excellent guide and managed to find 4 of the Big Five for us which we had not managed with our own car:-)
Our early morning safari was truly unforgettable from start to finish. The experience began with a prompt early pickup from our lodge, setting the tone for a seamless and well-organized adventure. Watching the sunrise over the landscape was absolutely breathtaking—one of those moments that makes you pause and fully appreciate nature. What made the experience even more special was our guide, Tshiamo. He was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and professional throughout the journey. Safety was clearly his top priority, but he also went above and beyond to give us the best possible views of the wildlife. Tshiamo patiently answered all our questions and shared fascinating facts that added so much depth to what we were seeing. His passion and expertise really brought the safari to life. We came away with so many amazing photos and even better memories. It was also wonderful to see how engaged our 8-year-old was the entire time—he absolutely loved it and hasn’t stopped talking about it since. A great addition to our full day we did previously. Highly recommend MoAfrika!
Great drive through the park - by Tman with excellent knowledge of the flora and fauna - interesting stories. Thank you
Had the best drive with T Man for a few hours this morning. He is extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and funny too! He was able to answer any questions we had and we managed to see elephants, hippos, rhinos, and zebra in such a short time. Just amazing!
Excellent Pilanesberg trip! Our driver Alex was friendly, professional, safe, and made the whole day comfortable for us. Alex was also extremely thoughtful and service-oriented. He made sure everyone was comfortable, kept the day running smoothly, and was always polite, patient, and upbeat. His positive attitude and genuine care for the passengers really stood out. It’s clear that he takes great pride in providing excellent service and making sure people have a great experience. You can tell Alex naturally enjoys working with people. He communicates well, is very organized, and creates a calm, welcoming environment for everyone. Those qualities made a big difference in our day. I would highly recommend this experience to others. Thank you!
We had some great sightings of rhino, elephants and giraffe plus a very close hippo encounter! Thanks to Dalene for a great drive 🤩
