An enjoyable way to spend...

An enjoyable way to spend half a day or so. We were picked up from our Johannesburg hotel and driven to the park where we had a short wait before the tour itself started. Our driver/guide was very knowledgeable and the park is set out to allow very close access to most of the animals.

It’s a “Must Experience” experience

Awesome tour. Value for money. I got to see so many animals in person that I never thought I’d see in my lifetime. I thoroughly enjoy and would recommend

Lions All of The Place…And Feeding

We went on our first safari last week but only saw 2 of the Big 5. Our tour guide did not disappoint us at this venue, Lion and Safari Park was the perfect way to close out our week in Johannesburg. Watching the lions feed from the safety of the vehicle had all of us leaning forward. We also passed wild dogs, hyenas, giraffes, wildebeest, and zebras throughout the park, with plenty of good light for photos and staff happy to talk conservation. Evie made sure this last day landed the way the whole week had; it was enjoyable, well-run, and safe. A strong finish to a week we won’t forget.

Great experience

I had a great experience at the Lion & Safari Park. It was the perfect half-day trip from Johannesburg and a great way to experience South Africa’s wildlife. The park is well organized, the facilities are clean, and everything ran smoothly. We saw lions, cheetahs, wild dogs, zebras, and several other animals, and our guide shared interesting information throughout the drive. A special thank you to the driver, Lebo, who was incredibly kind, professional, and welcoming. He made the experience even more enjoyable with his positive attitude and excellent service. I would definitely recommend the Lion & Safari Park to anyone looking for a well-organized wildlife experience close to Johannesburg
