Everything!!!! ALL Associates were so wonderful mostly! Mmapula the server and Steven the guide. Very clean food- amazing plate presentation. Steven took really good care of us during game drives. Bit shy from the beginning but once he gets out of his own shell, we couldn't stop laughing!!!! Check-in procedure was super simple and less time consuming!!!

Everything’s gorgeous, amazing, wonderful… it was such an amazing experience to stay in lodge. I am very upset to stay a 1 night. All the members were friendly. They made us feel like we stay at home. All the meals are exceptionally delicious. It was well selected menus and we enjoyed experience it a lot. Safari experience was something else. Our ranger is knowledgeable and experienced. Would definitely recommend stay in lush lodge.

Everything! Eddie was a great host and guide. The drives were amazing and coming back to lodge I could relax fully. My apartment was even better than the photos and very private. I was right at the fence of the park, I could hear elephants shuffling by at night.

This is an exceptional lodge in an amazing environment. My wife and I had been on safari many years ago in the Masai Mara and yet Pilanesberg while different was just as rewarding. There were two organised safaris each day and each and every one created memories to cherish. I loved the staff, who were so proud of the game reserve and so committed to making sure it was a wonderful experience, always friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, the chef was just great. I loved our spacious lodge and its little plunge pool. Our safari guide Humbu really helped make the experience special. We are so grateful to him, with his incredible enthusiasm and knowledge, for the way he used his wisdom from 22 years of doing this job to orchestrate the best possible sightings for whatever animals we encountered.

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 hotel and facilities were absolutely exceptional - beautiful rooms, surroundings and amazing views. The staff were the most accommodating, friendly, informative, knowledgeable, fun and welcoming people we’ve experienced in a long time. The game drives (both included) were beyond description - absolutely phenomenal and we were able to see the Big 5. The breakfasts and dinners, in particular, were delicious - every time. I’d 100% recommend staying at Black Rhino Lodge.

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.

Very friendly staff, very welcoming. The hotel is about 10 minutes away from the national park. We forgot our headphones in the room and were immediately informed by the staff, so we still had time to pick up our things before we left for our final journey home. thank you!
