1 hour 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

After two years of intensive preparation we received three young lions in January 2017. The decision to move the three lions was based on the fact that the area at the Game Farm where they were born was very small and the area at Buffelsdrift was bigger and would suit them better. These cubs were born in captivity and can therefore never be released into the wild. A portion of the funds accumulated by this is used for conservation and to support two local schools in our community.
Guests will be transported in a game vehicle to the 5ha lion enclosure where they will see our lions (Shumba, Tonga and Safia) close-up from the elevated view point. A trained game ranger will feed the lions while guests view them. It is advisable to have a camera at hand. Furthermore, the game ranger will fully inform the guests regarding important aspects of lions in general.
