Excellent organized safari - Recommended

We were picked up by MoSafari on time and directly at the hotel. Unfortunately, our hotel was outside the pick-up zone of GetyourGide. Just an email and the problem was already solved. The ride to the first game drive at 09:00 started at 05:00 and was pleasant. This was only occupied by 6 people and therefore had a pleasant family atmosphere. At noon we were taken to our lodge with excellent food. After a short rest by the pool, the evening safari started in which we actually found the lions. Thanks to Martin and Tiamo! The next morning we had a safari with the lodge. This was nowhere near as cool as with MoAfrika. This trip was carried out with about 20 people and a truck. Afterwards we had an excellent breakfast at the lodge. At noon we were picked up again and at the MoAfrika location in Pilanesberg there was a BBQ. Then the last trip in an open vehicle with 9 people. Afterwards, you were taken back to your hotel. The only negative was the trip there. The driver drove like a disabled person in pouring rain, passed several times in oncoming traffic, resulting in very difficult situations. The journey took 2 hours. But we survived it.
