PILANESBERG NATIONAL PARK
About an hour and a half's drive from Johannesburg, through the former 'homeland' of Bophuthatswana lies the Pilanesberg National Park. This beautiful and unspoiled park is home to the famous Big 5. We will arrive in the park at around 8am, and after enjoying a sumptuous breakfast, we will start our first Game Drive. With some luck we will see Elephant, Buffalo, Rhino, Leopard and Lion. After lunch at the Pilanesberg Center, we embark on our second Game Drive for the day.
Duration : Full Day
 

KRUGERSDORP GAME RESERVE AND LION PARK
The Krugersdorp Game Reserve lies south west of Johannesburg near the picturesque town of Krugersdorp. Here you will be able to view some of the 350 bird species, 15 different antelope species, White Rhino and with a little luck Lion, who are all residents of the park. Even if you don't see lion in the game reserve, you will most definately get the opportunity to get better acquainted with these beautiful cats at the Lion Park near Randburg.
