Begin your adventure with an early morning arrival and an exciting game drive, pausing at key viewpoints and the Pilanesberg Centre for lunch. Here, you can photograph animals gathering at the waterhole and browse for authentic African handicrafts. The afternoon brings further game-spotting opportunities, with a chance to see some of the 370+ bird species that call the reserve home.
For those seeking a day of wildlife and natural beauty within easy reach of the city, this trip’s USP is its combination of world-class game viewing and fascinating geological history, all in a single, memorable day.
