Pilansberg Night Game Drive

Moloko was so fun and the sweetest guide. Kind, and always willing to answer questions, shared fun facts, and stoped as many times as we asked. We saw tons of beautiful animals and the views of this park were stunning!

Cool safari with sunset

Super cool game drive done with Petrus. We saw a lot and also a beautiful sunset and picnic. Peter knows all about the animals, and tells with passion and humor. If you are going to do a tour at Mo Africa, be sure to ask for Petrus!
