Where the African Wilderness Meets Accessibility and Comfort
Just two hours from Johannesburg and right next door to the world-famous Sun City Resort lies Pilanesberg National Park — one of South Africa’s most remarkable wildlife destinations. Set in an ancient volcanic crater, the park offers a malaria-free, Big Five safari experience that combines breathtaking scenery, abundant wildlife, and luxury accommodation options.
With Africa Moja Tours, your Pilanesberg Safari is a journey of discovery — from sunrise game drives to starlit dinners in the bush, every moment is crafted to bring you closer to nature and the wild heart of Africa.
Covering more than 55,000 hectares, Pilanesberg National Park is the fourth-largest game reserve in South Africa and one of the most ecologically diverse. The park lies within a volcanic crater formed over 1.2 billion years ago, creating a striking landscape of rolling hills, valleys, and waterholes that sustain an incredible range of wildlife.
The park is home to the Big Five — lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo — as well as cheetahs, wild dogs, giraffes, hippos, crocodiles, and more than 360 bird species. Because it’s a malaria-free reserve, Pilanesberg is ideal for families, couples, and first-time safari-goers.
Africa Moja Tours offers a full range of safari experiences, from single-day tours to multi-day luxury stays. All safaris are led by experienced guides and include convenient transfers from Johannesburg, Sandton, or OR Tambo International Airport.
