Super expérience. Réservation la veille du départ. Chauffeur au top: à l heure, très agréable, très bonne conduite, donne beaucoup d'informations et en plus parle Français (merci encore Bongani). Attention seulement aux prix proposés, il peut varier entre les informations sur le site et ceux au téléphone...

Our trip to Pilanesberg was very nice. We did see most of the animals except the big cats - which we were told are present in the National Park. But with animals its hard to predict where they will be and when - which is what makes a safari great! The driver was very nice and courteous throughout the day.

On a business trip, I only had one day off. This is what I spent it on, and I couldn’t have been happier. My guide and safe driver Lucky was knowledgeable about everything from animals to history, and we had interesting conversation during the 2-hour drives to the park and back (and there as well!). It was too hot a day for the lions or leopards to be visible, but we saw pretty much everything else. A great day!
