Traveler reviews
Great experience
Paul, our driver, was amazing and made the experience truly enjoyable. He was friendly and went above and beyond. Overall, it was a great experience, and we really appreciated the opportunity to learn about and experience the various tribes.
We were delighted by the entertaining and informative story telling, dancing, singing, authentic 5 village tour. tour
Recommend book thru Thomas Moafrica, MoAfrica +27 60 446 3076. He is much more than a personal driver. He is a guide and historian, with a vast wealth of knowledge about everything South Africa. Not only did he drive us round-trip in his Toyota SUV, but he also stayed with us for our full day experience at Lesedi Cultural Village, in Gauteng Province, 90 minute drive from center city Johannesburg, South Africa. He also added in a short visit to nearby Lions & Safari Park...at no cost! We are indebted to Thomas for taking good care of us all day.
A great transfer experience
The trip was actually a transfer booked through MoAfrika from Pilanesberg National Park to Johannesburg Airport, which took approximately four hours. Our driver Carson was professional and went above and beyond to make the transfer more than just a transfer driving experience. We asked him questions and he gave us a very interesting and informative history of South Africa over the past 150 years. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and we really appreciated the effort he went to keep us entertained and informed during the trip.
The tour guide Carson is very professional, driving technology of the first class, arriving at every attraction are very timely, attitude is kind, and friendly, all the way to have fun, this trip went to discover the prehistoric caves, also to the human culture rock basket museum, to reflect the modern scientists hard work, to the cradle of humankind,

South African populated
Very interesting with the portrayal of the villages of the natives, their music and dance. It takes an entire period, morning or afternoon. Not very cheap but worth it.
