Day 1

Pilanesberg Game Reserve is the wildlife treasure of our region and a jewel in the crown of tourism attractions near Johannesburg/Pretoria. With all "Big 5" the iconic wildlife of Africa, set in ancient volcanic mountains, it affords visitors a great chance to see what primordial wild Africa looked like. It takes around 2 ½ hours to get there from Johannesburg, or less from Pretoria, pick up and/or drop at airports Lanseria/OR Tambo available. We leave early, 3.30am-4.30am depending on time of year. Hours just before and after sunrise are the best time to see most animals. But starting at 10.00 am for the sunset option is an alternative. Combined Sunrise/Sunset option available too on request and this will include open safari vehicle drive (osv). We spend up to 7 hours on safari, (11 sunrise/sunset), disembarking at many viewpoints at dams/rivers. Lunch at a great location with great views of the reserve. Part of this can be in the osv on request at a small extra charge. Lunch (Breakfast & dinner not included) Non-alcoholic drinks

Epic experience

Awesome tour. Well worth the early wake up. Was truly an epic experience seeing so many animals up close. Lion, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes,hippos and rhinos to name a few. Our guide Willem was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Can’t go wrong with this experience

Excellent communication and service

We booked a Botswana safari with Mmilo Tours and were very impressed with the communication and service we received from Norman throughout the booking process and leading up to the safari. All in all, everything went smoothly and we would definitely book with Mmilo Tours again.

Excellency and reliability

For our first trip to South Africa, I looked for an animal sighting tour that would accommodate the needs of our family party, including myself, my 85 y/o mother, and an 18 y/o nephew. Our Choice could not have been better. Mmilo Tours offered us exactly what we were looking for, a private 2-day tour to Pillanersberg in a comfortable SUV just for us and definitely the most knowledgeable guide in the country, Mr. Willem Heckroodt. Apart from knowing the geography of South Africa in detail, which meant a lot to us since I am a professor in physical geography and my mum Emerita in the same field, Willem is a great conversationalist and a professional who anticipates and caters to all your needs. He excels in every aspect you would expect from a tourist Guide and made us feel at ease at all times, turning the trip into a unique learning experience and a relaxing and pleasurable one. I am incredibly grateful for his efforts to make the whole experience easy for my octagenarian mother, such as producing a plastic step stool to help her access the vehicle. Hence, I thoroughly recommend the services of Mmilo Tours without a hint of hesitation; they have always been helpful and proactive since our first contact. Their highly professional attitude has added to our satisfaction with the South African experience and made us wish to come back soon.

Very experienced tour guide who was completely focused on the well-being of the customer

Mmilo Tours was the only organizer who offered a tour to my satisfaction in the way I wanted to do it. Unfortuneatly I was very short on time and wanted to make the best of it. This customer centricity and flexibility by Mmilo Tours is outstanding. The booking and communications were fast and reliable, everything was arranged exactly as discribed before. My tour guide was very experienced and I had a great time.
