Our driver Alex was kind and fun, making the early pick up more pleasant. Our guide in the park, Wisdom, was also sympathetic. When we were stuck behind a group of elephant he managed to make us safe while waiting for the road to be free. We saw 2/5 Big Five as during the days big lions, cheetahs and buffalos are sleeping. Everything is very well organised, from pick up at hotel to transfert back. There is even a vegetarian option for the métal.

Absolutely wonderful full day safari experience! Booking easy and efficient, communication between Viator, the Tour Operator, and myself was smooth, and there were zero issues along the way! Well worth the price.

My sister and I enjoyed our safari. We were fortunate to see four of the big five and many other interesting animals, such as hippos, giraffes, and kudus. It’s an exceptionally long day and at times you may regret signing up for something that requires you to wake up so early but it’s so worth it when you get there and you’ll be glad you did it. This is the best option for an authentic daylong safari from Johannesburg. We loved our guide Katie and took so many great photos and videos.
