Day 1
Catch your included early flight from Cape Town to Lanseria Airport, a 90-minute drive from Pilanesberg Game Reserve (625 sq kms). Journey with our expert guide through one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world and past the world's richest platinum mines in a landscape created eons ago to the Pilanesberg Game Reserve, situated inside the remains of a 2 billion-year-old volcano. Pilanesberg has thousands of all the iconic animals of Africa, including the Big 5 roaming free. Our unique, private, extended game drives in our 4x4 SUVs go further into the park than the open safari vehicles which are usually only 3 hours and shared with others. On our private extended drives, we get out and walk at waterholes dams and protected viewing points as you wish and this means unimpeded 'no heads in the way' photography both in and out of the vehicle. During the drive we will have lunch on the scenic open dining terrace of Bakubung Lodge overlooking the game reserve and nearby waterhole. Mid-range resort located less than 1hr drive from Pilanesberg GR Lunch & dinner (Breakfast not included) Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 2
Arise early and depart for Pilanesberg Reserve with a packed picnic breakfast supplied by the hotel for another magnificent day on safari. At one of the many viewpoints and hides you will stop to stretch your legs and have your picnic breakfast. View crocs and hippos in and out of the water, other animals coming to drink and many birds. It is all about giving you the maximum opportunity to have a memorable and enjoyable safari within your time frame. Our freer format with our private SUV and guide is the best way. It is more manoeverable for the best photo angles. But we will add 3 hours in the open vehicle (OSV) too'. You cannot predict what animals you will see as this is a wild place, and the animals roam free and the big cats hunt everywhere. You will have another lunch and a rest in front of a waterhole, watching the animals come and go. You will depart the reserve at about 3:00 pm for Lanseria Airport to catch flight back to Cape Town. Breakfast & lunch (Dinner not included) Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

5.0/5Awesome 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

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.
Ella · United Arab Emirates
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.

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.
