  Great half/one-day safari at Mongena, easily accessible from Joberg, with lots of animals to see!  - Perfect day safari at Mongena Private Game Reserve with Wian. From initial contact whilst organising the trip, right through to the tour itself, Wian was friendly, accommodating (of our changing... read more... requirements!) and extremely knowledgeable. We really enjoyed the drive, with Wian taking great care to help us see as many animals as possible during our half day tour. We saw lions, cheetahs and many other wildlife. He is clearly very passionate about the animals and provided a lot of interesting facts as we went. We really enjoyed the private tour which also included a relaxing coffee break next to a watering hole mid-drive, whilst still on the look out for more animals! As the only guide able to provide one day (or half day tours) at Mongena, I’d thoroughly recommend him especially if you are staying in Joberg or Pretoria and are short on time. Don’t hesitate to book one of these tours!

  A great day of birding  - I had a terrific birding tour in Gauteng with Wian as guide. He was very knowledgeable about species and habitat, delivering a most enjoyable day. I would recommend him.

  The best 1 day safari experience  - Wian was such a surprise. As a person that has been to Joburg so many times with work, i always had less expectations from it. But Wian gave us the... read more... best safari experience in 1 day that i will never forget and i keep bragging about it to my friends. He made sure everything was smooth and on time from pick up to drop off. He is very knowledgeable and passionate of what he is doing. And in the same time he made sure we participate in organising the day so it is an experience in the real sense. The fact that we had the luck to see so many beautiful animals, and Wian made sure he gets us as close as possible to them, staying safe and protecting the animals as well, it made me think that i want to do this every single time i visit Joburg. Thank you Wian once again for giving us this unbelievable experience.

We got on so well straight from the off and throughout the day his expertise in his field shone through,... read more... and I couldn’t have had a better experience for my short time in South Africa.
