Pilansberg is a 3 hour from Johannesburg.

Pilansberg is a 3 hour from Johannesburg. It is easily accessible however the roads to the Pilansberg are not in great shape. It would be best to take a shuttle than to drive yourself. The park is fantastic with all the animals. We saw many lion, a leopard, many elephants, many rhino and lots more. I highly recommend.

Pilansberg Game reserve is falling apart, literally.

Pilansberg Game reserve is falling apart, literally. This will be our last trip and we have been going for 15+jears. The road to the reserve is horrific but worse is the roads in the reserve itself. The "tarred" sections or what's left of it is one pothole after another, not pleasant to drive at all, even at the 40km speed limit in the reserve. Hides are becoming dangerous, falling apart and the toilet facilities at these hides are TERRIBLE! It is sad to see the facilities in the reserve keep declining.

Pilanesberg has never let us down.

Pilanesberg has never let us down. Even in heavy rain there is always something if you look hard enough and seeing the park in all weathers and different seasons, with the mountains, green spaces, trees, and dams is such a treat. Love every visit! Fish Eagle lookout is spectacular and the salt lick by the visitor centre usually brings in some animals and/or birds toward the start and end of the day - plus the coffee is good.

The wildlife in the Pilanesberg is varied and every game drive we went on was well rewarded with good viewing on the plains. Black rhino reserve is quite different and probably better viewing in winter when less undergrowth.

I was here six years ago. There are much less animals. Looks like they removed hundreds animals to private game drives. It is not Pilinesberg that I saw six years ago. If you don’t want to be upset, choose Kruger.

The game drives with Ntate Thomas Manyama were thee absolute highlight of my stay. Ntate Thomas is so knowledgeable,hospitable and friendly. I learned so much about the Pilanesberg reserve, its history,the animals and just life. He is a national treasure.

Tambuti is the best accommodation experience I think I've ever had. Better than any 4* or 5* hotel that I've stayed at, so truly exceptional. The warmth of the welcome, the attention to detail, the thoughtfulness and care - all were just wonderful. Plus we had tremendous food and drink, a beautiful building and location, and a marvellous guided safari experience. Very intimate (just 5 suites) and outstanding in every respect.

I cannot say enough good things about Mbazo! The team are exceptional and they go above and beyond to ensure that every guest is taken care of. The rooms are out of this world and the food is first class. The safari guide was excellent and the highlight had to be the elephants coming to drink from the pool right outside the hotel.

This is my second visit here in just under a year and I live in Australia so you know this place is very special. The accommodation is perfect, the staff are amazing and the food is divine. The game in the national park is incredible and the hotels highly experienced rangers help you really appreciate it.

The way that the rooms are set up is really stunning - you get all of the benefits of a hotel without feeling any of the pressure or presence of people. The staff are so friendly and helpful, everywhere we looked there was someone with a smile looking to make sure you were having a good time.
