Unique experience
We loved our trip to South Africa, nature and wildlife are so unspoiled and beautiful. Capetown was a surprise, and the weather helped a great deal, sunny almost every day with very little rain and not too hot for sightseeing.
Our stay at the Black Rhino Game lodge for the safari was also fantastic, all went smoothly with the airport transfers and the reserve was amazing, we saw lots of wild animals, loved the game drives and our guide was great. Highly recommended!

Wow, up close and personal with the magnificent wild life of South Africa!
After several trips to South Africa I have finally found what I have been looking for. This time I got to experience the real deal, staying in a bush camp on a private reserve. Wall to wall wildlife which because you are on a private reserve, you are driven right along side as the guides can take you off road. The accommodation was comfortable and clean in air conditioned tents; the food to die for (home cooked, traditional South Africa Food); my guides went above and beyond to give me my fill of wildlife and were very knowledgeable and passionate about their work. This trip has been such a highlight in my life so much so that I am returning to repeat it this coming winter.

Fantastic safari in a beautiful country
What a beautiful country! The people, weather, beaches, bush, cricket and the food was absolutely superb. We had a fantastic safari in the Kruger NP and really enjoyed our time in Cape Town. Cannot recommend the country as a holiday destination enough!

It was good but wouldn't do it again
The safari experience was good but the safari provider not so much. If you enjoy sitting on a car for long long ours, this is your kind of activity. We didn't do anything else than sitting in a car for 3 straight days. Not my favorite plan, need some more adrenaline.

Saw all of the Big 5 in One Day!!!
We did the 4-day tour of Kruger and Greater Kruger with Viva Safaris and could not be happier. I have friends who have done safaris and paid $3,000 USD+. The most important thing for me was just seeing the animals and Viva Safaris did not disappoint. We saw all of the big 5 in one day and a cheetah which is apparently very rare. The treehouse and accommodations are obviously not The Four Seasons Hotel but that is not why I personally go on safari to begin with. The staff were professional, nice and worked together to make sure we had the best chance to see as many animals as possible. The BBQ on our first night was amazing and we were surrounded by a pack of hyenas which was crazy. Amazing experience all around!

Excellent
The game druves were so good. We saw a lot of animals, more than we were expected. we came very close to the elephants, lions and cheetas!
Mostly of the guides told us a lot about the animals and were alsop connected with other drivers to see animals and then give us more experiences.
The food were very well prepaired and so many options. They serving us more than we need:)
We will for sure bee back again in this fantastic country!

From the moment we were picked up to being dropped off was all absolutly class.
We had never been on Safari before
The service provided was excellent
We saw 4 of the big 5, as well as many other species. The ranger drivers were good fun and informative.
The Bakubung Lodge was a great location and service was very good, clean rooms and helpful staff
The weather was also good cooler in the morning and late evenings
So in summary our 1st safari made a very lasting impression on me and my wife as well as my 16 year old son and 13 year old twins who had excitement and happiness every time we went out on a drive
Life long lasting good memories for me and my family!!

Fantastic experience at Pilanesberg park sunrise safari
Afasah and I had the best sunrise safari experience at Pilanesberg Park with the experienced and knowledgeable wildlife guide Norman Lok from Mmilo Tours.
It's a private tour and we sat in a comfortable SUV, our first sighting was a jackal which was running on the road before us. Next a rare brown hyena in the bush which came so close to us giving us so many opportunities to capture its beauty!
Norman has been a wonderful guide with wealth of knowledge about wildlife, Afasah and I were enlightened by the wildlife lesson as we spotted many wonderful wildlife- giraffes, zebras, rhinoceros, hippopotamus, elephants, wildebeest, springbok, lioness, western osprey, leopard tortoise, even secretary bird (Sagittarius serpentarius) which is a rare find!
This is our first safari trip in Johannesburg and we are truly delighted to have joined the best safari tour-Mmilo Tours with excellent wildlife guide and comfortable private tour! We highly recommend Mmilo Tours, thanks to best wildlife guide Norman for a memorable safari experience in Pilanesberg!
