We only had 6 hours in the park but managed to see 3 of the big 5, but lots of them and many more different animals as well; our driver and guide answered every question put to him.

Pilanesberg. A South African gem
Pilanesberg is a fantastic destination

and easier to see the Big Five than Kruger National Park which is also a brilliant game reserve. If your thinking of going, do it you will not be disappointed.Fantastic way to see the wildlife in its natural habitat
Whilst staying in Johannesburg we decided to visit the game reserve. We wanted to see animals in their natural habitat rather than visit some of the parks around Johannesburg. Arriving at the park in the early morning we had missed the 5:30am game drive so we decided to drive our hire car around the many miles/kilometres of tracks and roads. With just a map as reference we managed to see Rhino, Giraffe, Zebra, Wild Dog, Warthogs, Impala, Springbok, Kudu, Elephant, Hippo, Leopard, Monkey and other smaller animals all the way down to the dung beetle we watched for 10 minutes trying to push its dung across the road. There is so much to see although we couldn't find any Lions, probably as they sleep during the day. We drove for 6 - 7 hours and thoroughly enjoyed the day, stopping at the various hides and places to buy food and drinks. If you are looking for a safari experience Pilanesburg Game Reserve is a great day out and much better than seeing these animals in a fake environment.

Game Drive (Twice)
I stayed at the Sun City resort during this, my first trip to South Africa. I got up very early one morning for a game drive. (The jeep left from the hotel.) We spent the morning driving around, and I couldn't believe all the animals I saw -- some up close. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable. I enjoyed myself so much I went on another game drive the next day, that time selecting the late afternoon one. I saw fewer animals because of the heat. But it was still a wonderful experience and absolutely worth the money.

Amazing--surpassed expectations!
What can I say but wow! Jacque, our guide was determined to show us as many animals and he succeeded. He was so helpful and knowledgeable that he really made our safari all the better. The accomodations were so comfortable, the food delicious and the service impeccable!

Amazing!
Terrific time. The variety of animals seen was beyond our expectations. Reviews that suggest this reserve is limited were off. This was a great experience.
