This is so far the best place I’ve ever been to. Words can’t express how amazing this place is, you feel relaxed and peaceful. The staff is super friendly, the food is delicious, the room is spacious, comfortable and clean. The games were fantastic and our ranger Cliff was the best of the best, he went beyond to make sure we could see the animals, we were lucky we could see the big 5 within 3 game drives, Cliff is experienced ranger with big knowledge. We were very happy during our stay at Black Rhino. I can’t wait to be back

My friends came to visit from the UK and have never been to SA or on Safari. They were moved to tears by the lodge, the rooms, the people and the animals. Our ranger, Hannes, was a delight and we managed to see the big 5 a few times. Memorable

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.

Tambuti is the best accommodation experience I think I've ever had. Better than any 4* or 5* hotel that I've stayed at, so truly exceptional. The warmth of the welcome, the attention to detail, the thoughtfulness and care - all were just wonderful. Plus we had tremendous food and drink, a beautiful building and location, and a marvellous guided safari experience. Very intimate (just 5 suites) and outstanding in every respect.

Do not book with this host! The host is dishonest as the Hotel Timeshare had no record of our reservation. They just ghosted us and did not respond to any contact, whether through booking.com or via their mobile number provided . If you want to stay here, book directly with Legacy Hotels- Kwa Maritane. Amazing service received from them to assist with our scammed booking.

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.

The staff were amazing, location within Pilansberg, facilities decent and food was lovely (starters and mains). Also unlimited game drives for your entire stay and we had an amazing ranger (Clifford). Great turn down service and complimentary bubbles for our anniversary.
