The wild life we saw was limited to Zebras and Springboks mostly. We had fun during our Brazil lunch in the middle of the game reserve.

Slightly more than 2 hrs from joburg, it is really great , you can spend a great day, and be back in joburg at night.
The whole park can be nearly completely seen throughout one single day.
really a must.

Well known for the Noah's Arch project, the wildlife in this reserve was replenished with all the wildlife that could be found in this area before it was destroyed by hunting and farming

Pilanesberg was my first experience visiting a game reserve. That was in 1998 and it was a nice experience. Many of the larger animals I saw were at quite a distance away so it wasn't like visiting Kruger, but I did see lions trying to chase down their dinner without success which was my only experience of the chase. So each experience can bring something new.

A great big 5 park, with a great chance of seeing game based on the varying types of terrain.

More like a small safari park, with no feeling of being 'wild'. I won't be visiting again.

A Must Visit

Pilanesberg has become one of South Africa's 'must visit' destinations. It's a compact game park which can be reasonably covered in a day visit, with a great variety of large and small game, as well as birdlife. Should you have the privelage to spend more than a day, that would be even better. Accommodation is great and does not lose the bushveld atmosphere. The service is good and friendly and in the many times that I have been there I have not been able to fault the food once. There is a low security risk but as tourists we all need to be security concious no matter where one goes in the world, so don't leave expensive equipment lying around. The weather is great whether sunshine or rain, but keep in mind that December - February are hot months in South Africa, so if you come in those months please don't complain about the heat, just enjoy it. Over-all I can assure anyone that they will look back at a visit to Pilanesberg and never regret making it part of their itinerary. It's a thoroughbred African experience with an entrance fee through the gate of less than 5 Euros per person for the day. (Accommodation in the luxury catagories could of course be quite expensive, but you normally get good value for your money) I hope you consider making Pilanesberg part of your life experience - I'm addicted :-)
