Sunny was such a fun, happy energetic tour guide. By the end of our 2 days he was one of the family! Thanks for such a memorable holiday. Worth every cent, punctual, great advice, flexible and always went above and beyond.

MoAfrica Tours really delivered!
5/5

I went with them on a 6-hour Safari Tour of Pilanseberg National Park. The driver picked us up at our hotel right on time that they said they would come, really early in the morning. We stopped around halfway to stretch our legs, bathroom break and coffee. When we arrived at the park, the assigned park ranger was already waiting for us. The ranger took a little longer in finishing up the tour inside the park because there were unexpected animal sightings towards the end of the safari. The MoAfrika Tour driver was patiently waiting for us and took us all back to Johannesburg, dropping everyone at their hotels. It was a pleasant experience and I recommend it.

Sunny and Pumba were friendly, funny and omniscient guides
5/5

The driver sunny was perfect on time picking us up from the hotel. We had a bit problems to find another group because the location was not right shown, but however the guide brought us to the safari on time. We change to Pumba, he was really cool guy. He knows everything about Any animal we saw. We saw every animal except cats. But however we were so happy to see all the animals so near. The lunch was good and we had a visitor (giraffe) which came by and say Hello while eating. This was so beautiful! The tour is a great experience for a first safari! Would do it again :) thanks MoAfrika Tours!

5/5

This was my first such tour. I found it very easy to arrange and reasonably priced. The experience lived up to the brochure's description. We saw many animals including. I saw 3 of the big 5 (others saw 4). Lunch was tasty. The day flew by. Door to door pick up and drop off was an unexpected plus.
The ride to and fro was also great, as the route was scenic and the driver shared interesting facts about the areas through which we drove.

5/5

The tour was very well thought and planned out. Communication was smooth and replies were prompt and clear. The guides for the jeeps were friendly, entertaining, and very knowledgable. We saw many animals, including the big 5! Lunch options were good during the game drive days, and the jeeps were clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!

Amazing experience with an amazing team
5/5

Travelling with Moafrika opened my eyes to the wonders of South Africa. The guides that we had on the trip were a good mix of knowledge and enthusiasm. you can really feel the passion of the staff, which rubbed off to the rest of my group. The tracking abilities and the communication of the guides let us see all of the Big 5 in Kruger, and even some really cute occurrences that's supposed to be rare! Will be back again for more trips :)

5/5

Good value for money. We were picked up from our hotel and taken to the park in 2hrs - and we had a great tour guide with a comfortable vehicle that was high up with great views. We saw lots of animals in just one day including swimming elephants and lions.

Very committed and always available if there are any problems. Motivated team of tour guides!
4/5

We were a group of three and booked an overnight safari at short notice. MoAfrica was recommended to us by airline crews. Booking, transport and lodge were very well organized. Only the payment was a bit complicated and only possible via payfast. This payment method was new to me! Already upon arrival in Pilanesberg we could see many elephants, rhinos, giraffes, zebras and even cheetahs. The Ivory Tree Lodge is very luxurious and we were well looked after. On the second day, the program had to be shortened due to strikes by the park employees. We all agreed - next time we'll stay a little longer! Thank you MoAfrica for the beautiful safari!

The review below is the personal opinion of Gail and not that of SafariBookings.
The tour operator inaccurately advertises type of open vehicle used from Bakubung lodge.
2/5

All was acceptable except for the most important aspect of a safari experience and that is the safari vehicke used for open vehicle drives from Bakubung Lodge. This lodge only uses 22 seater monster trucks, and babies are also allowed on the vehicle. It is impossible to communicate with the guide due to space and diesel engine unless you are one of two people sitting directly behind guide. The guide stopped to speak only when he or she was planning to speak so there is no ongoing conversation to learn and ask questions. This was a very disappointing experience. Just be aware that this particular lodge uses these types of trucks, and I have confirmed this with the lodge administration itself as the tour operator said otherwise.

Good value, great communication and expert guides - recommended!
5/5

I was looking at quite short notice to book a two-day safari to Pilanesberg, and MoAfrika were incredible. They were very responsive via live chat for me (better than submitting a formal enquiry). They put together a package that was more competitive/better value than other companies I had been in touch with, and were very friendly and personal throughout. Communication was great - the main coordinator kept checking in to make sure everything was smooth, and the driver for transfer was also in touch when needed.
The tour was accurate to the package and everything went smoothly. My driver (Sunny) was fantastic - pick up was exactly on time and driving was smooth. He was friendly and very knowledgable - we were able to find lots of animals during the closed bus drive through the park! The lodge and safaris were all smooth and well coordinated with the transfers.
Overall, I had a great time - MoAfrika were fantastic for communication and great for price, especially considering I was organising this essentially the day beforehand! The logistics were all perfectly smooth and the tours were expertly guided. Very happy with their work!
