Good value for money and worth booking - The tour ran successfully being picked up from our hotel on time. It was nice splitting the day up into 2 halves, stopping for a pleasant lunch in between which is included in the price. Didn’t see any large cats but I know this is never guaranteed. Didn’t stop us enjoying the day though

An excellent company and an amazing experience. - This was an excellent trip. The company was very organised the the day safari was amazing. Our guide (Elvis) was very knowledgeable and all of the guides for the company were exchanging information on sightings so that we had the best opportunity to see wildlife. Highly recommended.

Perfect! - Took a day trip to Pilanesburg for safari. Our driver to and from the Park was Sunny. He was communicative and prompt. He was a safe driver and made sure we got any breaks we needed along the way. He answered every question and made sure to give context and explanation to what we saw on our trip. It made me feel like I had two tours of the countryside in addition to the wonderful safari. Very immensely grateful for the experience. Our Pilanesburg guide was Tumi and he was also so wonderful. Knowledgeable and good humored. He was wonderful as a person and a guide. He worked really hard to make sure we saw as many animals and birds as possible, and adjusted lunch and bathroom stops to group preferences. My day was wonderful and really exceeded my expectations.

No Africa tour - African Safari 5/5 Hello to my fellow safari lovers!!! Our Michigan group toured MoAfrica safari on July 11. I must say, my experience was more than I could have ever think or imagine. Our guide did a phenomenal job searching for and teaching us about the habits of the big 5 animals. Our guide also took his time answering each of our questions concerning the animals. The highlight of our tour for me was seeing a family of lions resting in the grass and watching the majestic elephants, giraffes and zebras unexpectedly show up at the outdoor restaurant where we were having lunch. Everyone was in awe of seeing the animals and immediately started taking picture of them. I would definitely recommend Mo Africa tours to anyone interested in going on a safari trip to South Africa. Thank you again to our tour guide for his time, knowledge, care and effort in making sure our tour was a success. Thank you so much MoAfrica tours Ms. Kim M

A great day! - I have just got back from a one day Safari tour to Pilanesberg today which was everything it was billed to be. The driver Sunny was so helpful and informative and friendly to be with. Pick up was fine and all the timings during the day worked ok. We saw so many animals including lions and elephants up close. The park guide was very informative. Well worth the price of the trip. Would recommend.

Great Safari! - Fantastic full day safari! We were picked up at the King’s Resort & had a wonderful time. Saw lions, giraffe, rhino, elephants, wilder beast, wart hogs & zebras. The “light lunch” was a full lunch & our guide Tumi educated us not only in the animals, but the fauna as well. Great value for money!
