Great Day trip

We booked the Tour for Sun City yet it was Pilanesberg National Park that ended up being the WOW factor for us. Absolutely beautiful. We were picked up from the airport by Andrew and he took us to Pilanesberg. There we met Buffallo Soldier who took us on an exceptional tour. He really is the Alpha and the Omega in Pilanesberg. He knows the place and the animals and his passion about the Park and the wildlife is undeniable. The Palace was closed to the public but I booked myself in for a Pedicure at the Beauty Salon and got to get in after all. The valley of Waves and the Palace is a must.
