    Saw the basic sites with poor quallity and incorrect information from the guide
    The guide took us around to the main sites in Pretoria, but he gave us very poor quality and sometimes blatantly incorrect information. For example, he stated that Paul Kruger was born in Switzerland, and he also stated that the Voortrekker monument was built in 1853. He had an irritating way of calling us "Good Folks" and confronting us with contensiously-phrased questions about e.g. what did we think were the actual crime rates and their causes in South African cities, after which he gave us his misinformed opinions as though they were facts.

    Great Pilanesberg Experience
    Fantastic experience all around. The driver from Johannesburg was friendly, energetic, helpful and knowledgeable. The guide in the park made the experience what it was! He was so knowledgeable and friendly. Fantastic is the only word.

    Interesting and informative
    We enjoyed learning about the history and current range of living conditions in Soweto, but it was sad to see how touristy and over-commercialized the area around Mendela and Tutu's houses was.

    Great snap shot of The City.
    This was a great half day trip, if we ha time we would have loved to have seen more. Mark was our guide, he was punctual and his private cehicle was comfortable and clean. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about sharing with us the city's highlights. We felt completely safe and looked after by Mark. He was more than happy to answer our off piste questions and has a great sense of pride of the true Johannesberg. The constitution Hill tour was very interesting & engaging, but I would recommend you request a 2 hour visit there.

    Full Soweto experience
    The tour was very informative, with the tour guides Gasa and Lerato answering many questions along the way. Going to the informal settlement was an eye opening experience, one that would be difficult to do without a tour. Highly recommend.

    Informative tour of Soweto. Definitely recommend.
    A very informative tour with an excellent couple of guides (local guide in Soweto Township). Turned up too late to go into the Mandela Museum. It should have been included earlier instead of spending more time than necessary at other locations.

    Booked Umkumbe Safari through them!
    Cannot fault MoAfrika Tours. Lavender was incredibly helpful in supporting me with planning our first ever safari and even personalised stuff as it was a surprise for my husband. And then patiently responded to my many questions. I have travelled a lot but safari planning can be hard trying to balance so many factors including price and luxury. I'd absolutely use MoAfrika again.

    We booked this tour online weeks ahead of our arrival in Johannesburg. This tour company sent me a message the day before our safari to confirm pick-up time. Our driver/guide, Sunny, picked us up on time. He is pleasant and very knowledgeable about the National Park and the wildlife. He answered all our questions. The restaurant that he took us for lunch was very good - excellent food and service. We did one safari drive in the morning and one after lunch. Sunny was very good at spotting animals in the bush. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. A great experience. Highly recommend this company.

    Amazing experience with amazing guide
    The tour was very informative and interactive. The tour guide, Tsholo is a fountain of information. He knows the history of his country very well and did a great job sharing it with the group. Booking this trip was extremely easy, thanks to Rishen. I would recommend this tour to everyone visiting this part of South Africa (Johannesburg). Thanks again, for a great day, Tsholo and MoAfrika Tours!

Had a very peaceful and rejuvenating stay at Bakubung lodge adjacent the Pilansberg park.
The accommodation was very comfortable and well provided with all amenities required for self catering.
We saw both Lion and Leopard on our self drive safaris and we’re treated superbly on a open vehicle game drive with Kgabo tours. Our tour guide Jo was an expert in his field and not only taught us a lot but was also very respectful to all the wild animals.
All arrangements ran fluently.
A big thanks for all the arrangements.

We contacted MoArfika tours to organize a 4 day photo safari and a full day Johannesburg tour. Wayne planned the tours from A-Z, the full trip was a success.
The Johannesburg tour guide was great, very knowledgable and friendly.
The Photo tour went according to plan ! First class accommodations with gourmet meals every day. Wayne took great care of us and would highly recommend.

The personalised service from MoAfrika was excellent. From the booking process to the pickup and drop off. MoAfrika handed me over to the game lodge and made sure I was all sorted out. They then picked me up and made sure I got home safely.
The game lodge was wonderful and of course, the beautiful and stunning wildlife of Africa is something quite moving and unique.

Amazing experience. Travelling for business and decided to extend the trip to go on a safari.

Stayed in Kwa Maritane Lodge and did 4 game drives over the 3 days. Saw so many amazing animals. Staff were amazing!

Specifically want to thank my driver Arnold from Mo Afrika for being so friendly and helpful. Was travelling solo so having someone as kind as Arnold very much put me at ease. Thank you!

Would recommend, thanks for an amazing experience.

My Safari, organised by MoAfrika Tours, was one of the best experiences of my life. My wife and I had a truly amazing time. The trip didn't start too well as our Mango flight from Cape Town to Johannesburg was delayed by almost 4 hours! We were panicking as we were due to be picked up at the airport by MoAfrika. However, once I contacted them my fears were allayed. They organised a driver to pick us up from our delayed flight. We had expected that we would miss our afternoon drive but to our amazement, MoAfrika had contacted our lodge and organised a night drive for us! This was just amazing customer experience.

The Safari itself was just fantastic. We stayed at the Pilansburg lodge and were treated like royalty. The drives were spectacular and we got to see 4 of the big 5 (the elusive Leopard was hiding). We also got to spot a Cheetah, which is apparently extremely rare, which made our safari even more special.

Honestly, I could not recommend MoAfrika Tours enough. The customer experience was outstanding and added to our unforgettable trip.

This was our second booking with Moafrika Tours and we decided to stay in a 4-star lodge (our first trip was to a 3-star lodge). We specifically chose the Pilanesburg Private Reserve, which is located in the Black Rhino part of Pilanesburg Park and is a 5-room only lodge.

Moafrika tours collected us from our hotel in Johannesburg on Day 1 (early morning) as part of other pick-ups, then drops each off at their relevant lodge. The same minibus that did the pick up, takes you around Pilanesburg park for the first game drive.
On Day 3, the Moafrika bus drops you off at Sun City for a few hour's before collecting then transferring back to your hotel in Johannesburg.

The handful of staff at the lodge were all friendly and helpful. Hendrik our game driver was knowledgeable and eager to show us as much as possible during each game drive. Petro was always there to meet us after our game drive and was very friendly.

We didn't manage to see all the Big-5, but everything we did see was amazing.

The food at the lodge was adequate, nothing special (we must have had a different chef to previous reviewers who raved about how good the food was). The room itself was comfortable - very spacious and the view from our patio overlooked the watering hole. During our stay we managed to see zebra (from our room patio) and a large male elephant (from the main lodge)!
There was tea/coffee/kettle in the room and toiletries. It looked like it could do with some refurbishment and wasn't as clean as I'd have liked.

One of the double sinks in our room was leaking (when we checked in), but it was never repaired during our stay, so we had to both use the one sink. It wasn't a problem, but we were told that it would be repaired. There was an indoor and outdoor shower. I tried both, but the outdoor shower drainage wasn't good, so my feet were stood in about 2 inches of water while I was showering.

Being based in the private part of the Pilanesburg Park had its positives and negatives :
Positive : the Black Rhino part could not be accessed by visitors to the main Pilanesburg Park
Negative : it took longer to drive to the main Pilanesburg Park

Overall, a very good stay. It was nice to stay somewhere different to our last visit to Pilanesburg Park
