Few major cities in the world can boast... 6 hours

Few major cities in the world can boast a Big 5 malaria free game reserve on their doorsteps, as Johannesburg can. Explore Big 5 wildlife in Pilanesberg National Park at sunrise, the best time of the day for a safari. Pickup and drop back to hotel or to airport or vice versa with our expert professional tour guides, make for a super convenient tour with a riveting wildlife experience.Besides it’s magnificent Big 5 and all the other iconic African mega fauna , the Pilanesberg National Park's position inside the eroded caldera of a 1,200-million-year-old volcano makes for interesting and impressive landscapes and vistas. Mmilo Tours will take you there on safari every day of the week. We will personalise your private safari. Over the past 10 years, we have conducted innumerable private and small group safari tours for overseas business visitors, families, small groups and single individuals.Timing is crucial. Sunrise (ranges from 5.00am in Summer to 6.30am in Winter) is the best time to see the “Big Cats" and other predators as dawn and dusk are their major hunting times. Drop back to your hotel or airport is 11 hours after pick up. It’s a longish day but being there at dawn makes it worth it!
