Experience the ultimate African safari adventure with a full-day trip from Johannesburg to the spectacular Pilanesberg National Park – South Africa’s fourth-largest game reserve and one of the country’s most accessible Big 5 destinations. Set inside the ancient crater of an extinct volcano that erupted over 1.2 billion years ago, Pilanesberg offers dramatic scenery, rolling hills, open grasslands, and dense bushveld – all packed with an astonishing variety of wildlife living completely free in a 55,000-hectare protected wilderness. Your highly qualified and passionate field guide will lead two extended game drives (morning and afternoon, each approximately 2.5–3 hours). With expert tracking skills and in-depth knowledge they’ll go the extra mile to find the best sightings and answer every question. Over 200 km of well-maintained roads wind through diverse habitats, dramatically increasing your chances of seeing the Big 5 and many other species in a single day.
