Robert, our guide, was outstanding! On a scale of 1-10 I would have to give him at least a 12. He picked us up on time and explained where we were going as well as the history of Pilanesberg. And since we left to early for breakfast he stopped for coffee and a muffin on the way. Once inside the park he watched very carefully and pointed out all the animals and birds as well as their names. He also made sure I had time to take pictures. We seen more animals, in clouding the elusive Leopard, then we had seen in the previous safaris combined. A true professional, one that epitomizes what a safari guide should be. I would highly recommend this safari, and ask for Robert!!
