Traveler reviews
Wonderful
It was perfect. Our guides were Moloco and Petrus, and they are sensational, always looking for everyone's comfort, and the best experiences. I'd come back a thousand times
Fantastic
We had a fantastic experience on this two-day trip and would thoroughly recommend it. We were picked up promptly from our hotel by Nicki and taken to the park for the first of four open-vehicle game drives. Each drive was incredible, and all the guides were knowledgeable and informative. Our first two drives with T-Man and D were brilliant. They both went above and beyond—answering all our questions and ensuring we had the best possible experience. T-Man expertly and safely navigated the park, even managing to track down the lion we’d been hoping to see all day, which was a real highlight. We stayed at Bakubung Lodge, which was excellent. The room and food were both fantastic, and we had a brilliant view overlooking the park. On our second morning, we had an early start for a lodge-organised safari with Maea, who was also incredibly informative. Having drives at different times of day really enhanced the experience, as we were able to see a wider variety of animals depending on the changing conditions. We were very lucky to see a cheetah, lion, leopard, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, and many more animals. Throughout the trip, the staff were attentive and made sure we were well-fed, hydrated, and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the lunchtime meal and drinks provided in a beautiful setting within the park, which was a lovely touch. Their knowledge and professionalism meant we always felt safe, even when animals were very close. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone.
Wonderful!
We made several tours at different times which allowed us to see many animals. The hotel is more for a resort. Amazing! Beautiful, comfortable, clean and, as it was Saturday dinner was in a boma with barbecue and African show. It was exciting
Friendly drivers and beautiful views.
We did the 2 day safari. The tour guides were great and drove safely, and were so kind. We saw lots on our game drive through Pilanesburg. Our only complaints were that after being picked up in JoBurg at 5am, we did not eat until we were checked into our lodge after 3pm. The lodge we were told our stay was booked at through MoAfrika also never received the reservation, so there was a lot of confusion and worry with that, but Black Rhino was able to accommodate us thankfully. We are grateful for a lovely experience worth the money, but next time we will book directly with a game lodge as it seemed MoAfrika was mostly just transportation to and from JoBurg.
To avoid
Most; We saw the big 4 -The meal at the Lodge was suitable Less: The lodge is very poorly maintained. The room was nothing like a four-star -The safari offered by the Lodge was passable (which is a shame when you get up at 4:30) - Unreliable: I received a whatsapp message telling me that they would pick me up at 12:00 on the second day, they arrived at 11:15 to take me to an area with little to do or I waited until 1:30 for a safari that ended at 2:50 They made me wait until 4pm to leave the park and return to the hotel after 7pm In short the price quality ratio is not at all there. Go your way.
