Went to Pilanesberg Park for a few days before going back to Gabon. Also stopped in Sun City which is at the entrance to the park. Don’t bother; it’s like a lame Las Vegas.
Pilanesberg is just 2 hours northwest of Johannesburg. We stayed at a nice lodge inside the park, The Ivory Tree Lodge. If you are only in South Africa for a short time, the lodge is highly recommended. Nice rooms, good food and two drives per day with excellent guides. We got to see wildlife we hadn’t seen in Kruger, including hippos, which were amazing and giraffe. Our guide Peter tried to get us to see lions, but it didn’t happen. We’ll definitely come back.
