Johannesburg to the Pilanesberg Game Reserve

You will be picked up early in Johannesburg or Pretoria and driven to Pilanesberg Game Reserve.
You will arrive at Pilanesberg between 9:00-9:15 am. Your day in the game reserve starts with a 2½ to 3-hour game drive in our closed tour vehicle. The exact length of the game drive depends on whether you see an exciting animal sighting and spend a little bit longer at the sighting.
From 12:00 to 1:00 pm, enjoy a light lunch and beverages (for your own cost) at Pilanesberg Centre. After the lunch break, you will make your way to Manyane Resort to book in and drop your bags off. Your guide for the afternoon safari tour will meet you mid-afternoon at Manyane, between 4:00 and 4:30 pm. You will climb on board an open safari vehicle for a 2½ to 3-hour game drive (again, depends on what you see).
After a wonderful game drive, your guide returns you to the resort. You will freshen up and relax before it’s time for dinner which is prepared by your guide.
