Half Day Lion and Safari Park Tour

We had a terrible experience with this company. They showed up with a car that was way too small for all of us. I indicated in my reservation that I had 2 adults, and a child with a car seat. The driver arrived and was rude from the start - to me, to my husband, and to the other client (who also didn’t expect to be crammed in with 4 more people). We understand mistakes happen, but instead of being nice and apologetic - this driver was incredibly rude and very unprofessional. I asked him to send another car but he insulted me for not asking sooner. He never once apologized or offered a solution. Even on the return trip, he forced us in the car by threatening to leave us without a way home. I was appalled that he threatened to leave my family with no way back. He told me that if we didn’t get in the car with him he would leave us - he said take a taxi- even though we had already paid in full. The behavior was incredibly unprofessional. Worse than the physical discomfort was how horrible this man treated customers who paid a lot of money for this experience. Customers should not be insulted or harassed like that. Horrible experience, AVOID MOTLEY TOURS

Tour cancelled by operator on the day of the excursion, around 2 hours before scheduled pick up time. 2 stars given due to fast refund but otherwise super disappointing and lack of notice meant it was too late to book any alternative excursions for the day.

We went to Lion Safari Park on our last day in Africa. It was wonderful. We saw the big cats that we tried so hard to see at Krueger. Park is beautiful, animals looks healthy and happy, and we were dropped off and picked up by the park at our hotel. Couldn’t ask for more.

The Viator driver, Thabang, was very prompt and courteous. He drives you to the safari park, pays for the tickets and then you go into a safari park vehicle and a separate tour guide will drive and give info for the next 2 hours. The Viator driver will return you back to the hotel. The park was a wonderful experience to see various animals (lions, zebras, cheetah, leopard, hyenas, antelopes, etc); it is fenced in but it doesn’t lessen the experience; the safari vehicle is also fenced in but there are gaps to take photos unhindered … the girrafe was too far away from our vehicle; there are no elephants. It is highly recommended if you are nearby.

A very pleasant experience. Thabang was very friendly and entertaining. We discussed politics, music and more. In all, we had lots of fun

They were punctual and responsive. As a Woman I felt save visiting alone. The tour was amazing, I could see a lot of animals really close.

The tour was just amazing and the driver superb. Because of his assistance and readiness to help coupled with his well mannered and guarded conversation, I decided to book him for additional full day Johannesburg tour

I love the trip, good communication with the transportation instructions, excellent place and shops, highly recommend it!

We did 2 tours on the same day: lion safari park and Lesedi cultural. We loved both! In the park we saw many lions, leopards, hyennas, and had a lot of fun. The Lesedi park offered an interactive experience in which we learned impressive facts about languages, habits and the life style of 5 ancient peoples, closed with music and dances. The lunch was delicious in a well decorated environment. Our guide Eric was punctual, friendly and patient, taking pictures and waiting for us while we did the activities on our time, no rush. We highly recommend this tour for all family!

Great half day tour, picked up TK who was a very nice chap and driven to the park, he waited for us until the end and drove us back to the holiday inn Johannesburg safely. Lion park itself was super, you get up close and personal in the safety of a safari truck. You can take some really great photos and videos, tour guide / driver was excellent. He explained the history of the park and lions, horror stories on self drives where the rules of the park were broken. Hyena's, wild dogs, and cheetahs was more of a zoo experience, lions where the main attraction as it was more natural.
