Must do!
This is an amazing three day safari option from Joburg to Krueger. The ride up from Joburg is long… About 5 hours…But the van was perfectly comfortable for the journey. (If you easily get car sick I would not advise. You’re much better off flying into the closest international airport about an hour from the park and taking a shuttle from there.) We stopped twice along the way at comfortable service areas with clean bathrooms, dining, and shopping.
The guest lodge (Krueger Adventure Lodge) was good. Nothing fancy but very adequate for all your needs. I stayed in a luxury tent which was very comfortable. My only complaints were that a small animal could have easily gotten in if it had wanted (such as a snake or rodent), but fortunately the only thing that did was a big toad. The en-suite bathroom was nice. Hot water was very short lived in the mornings so be prepared for either quick or cold showers. The WiFi worked good and there was AC in the tent. Bed was very comfortable. The organized game drives were amazing. The included breakfast and dinner were also good. Service was excellent. There’s also a pool but I didn’t use it. I certainly wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again although may opt for one of the more fancy room options the lodge offers since I am not a fan of critters and I was too paranoid of seeing one in the tent. Otherwise I have absolutely no complaints!

Amazing experience in Kruger
We got this reference from safari links when we travelled from johansburg to Hazyview. Miss Lavender Murape coordinated very well till she connected us with Mr Stanley our driver and guide for the three full days. He was very punctual and he has lots of knowledge about the kruger and each animal behaviour and other things. We had a great adventurous time of our life. It's quite difficult to spot animals but Stanley was very patient and we could see more than 30 animals during our three days safari. We are very happy with our tour and wish MoAfrika to keep up good work

Great!
Amazing tour, did the 3 days, 2 nights budget safari. Only feedback is that the full day drive became a bit too long considering the early wake up and heat during the day. Maybe it would have been better to divide it into a morning and evening drive instead.

Room and guidance
Room was nice, a little bit dark, but mosquito free!
Tour guides were not great, some of them looked a bit bored. And they did not pay a lot of attention to other animals such as birds.

Memorable safari tour
I went on a 3 day Safari in Kruger National Park with Mo Africa Tours in October 2023. It was very well organized. I was pleased with my lodge. I expected anything from my room, since I chose a “budget” tour, but it was just great! Tastefully decorated, air conditioned, large and clean. The lodge has a pool where you can chill with a glass of wine after eventful day. Breakfasts and dinners are included, not super wide selection but food is tasty. And of course, Kruger itself is a gem! I’ve been to safaris before, still it surprised me with some animals I haven’t previously seen in the wild, like hyenas, wild dogs, and a leopard. And of course, you can expect an abundance of grazing animals - zebras, giraffes, elephants, hippos, you name it! I highly recommend this place and this tour. Special thanks to Rishen who promptly answered all my questions, provided all the details, and logistics support!
