Incredible Experience in the Lion Park - This was a fantastic experience in every way! Our driver from MoAfrika, Lebo, was amazing. He arrived precisely on time and he gave us some helpful background on South African history on the way to the Lion Park. And the safari at the Lion Park was incredible! We saw lions, leopards, giraffes, hyenas, zebras, impalas, and more. And we saw them up close. The entire trip was amazing and I would highly recommend it.

wonderful experience to... - wonderful experience to see the wild animals as they are being fed, and they are able to roam around. The most exciting was when we stopped at the hyena enclave and giraffes were roaming around, and we could stand among them.

Amazing First safari - Great experience. It was better than I expected for a guy who is not that much into animals. First time in South Africa and safari was a must.

Great experience - Transportation to the park and back worked smoothly. The chauffeur Khutso from MoAfrika Tours entertained me well on the ride with interesting facts and informed me well about the process in the park itself. The safari drive through the park was exciting, we saw a lot of animals and got a lot of information about the animals furch Dana, our guide.

Not as we expected - Quite poor! Given that the cost was nearly 5K rands, it was a disappointment that there were no many animals as we expected. I believe Pretoria Zoo was a better experience and the cost is less than 10%... However, staff were very friendly and welcoming.
