Enjoyed both private reserves and Addo. Different but both great!
I had the privilege of travelling to south africa with my friend charlo. the safari was amazing
we travelled to Pilanesberg National Park
We booked a 3-day trip to Pilanesberg National Park staying at wa Kwa Maritane Bush Lodge it nice accommodations and an amazing chef.
Our itinerary was well planned and executed. The safari was amazing - our driver was good and he didn't disappoint , given that he has longstanding experience, he knew all the best spots to find the animals like hyena, and owls, Black rhinoceros, Cape buffalo, African lion, African leopard.
If you are travelling to South Africa definitely consider Go Pilanesberg National Park, and hopefully you will be lucky
As someone who is interested in all wildlife, South Africa has many of the prime species and a highly developed Safari industry offering excellent accommodation, transport and hospitality.

For bush vibe we rather visit Namiba as it is less populated.
Excellent natural parks, great landscape, good infrastructure to support tourism, relatively well connected, reasonable prices and wide range of options for hotels and restaurants.
South Africa is the country for Wild life. With many Natural Reserves for safaris.
There is safaris for everybody. Oceans, Big Five, Birds....

It's hard to believe Madikwe was once farmland. It seems like the animals have always been there. They've clearly adapted and it is truly a wild place that is so expansive. It would take a lifetime to experience it all.
Even so i have just been to 2 parks and game reserve during my stay in South Africa, i would recomend SA is a great destination for Safari. There seam to be so many. Good infrastructure to get to the parks and book tours from various operators. The animals and parks seam to be taken good care of.

We've visited several parks in South Africa and Swaziland and they were all great. The scenery is amazing and forever changing. Of course you need a little bit of luck but a knowledgeable guide is worth a lot. The people in general are great and cooperation between guides helps you to see what you want to see. The birds and birding were a revelation. I knew about the wildlife and was expecting to photograph that but did not expect so many beautiful and different birds in front of my lens that I did. Simply amazing.
