Big Cats, Tours and Volunteering Opportunities at Cheetah Experience!

We invite you to join us for a "See, Sense, Touch" tour

We are all about wild cats for big cat lovers! If you are looking for a jaw-dropping, hands-on and heart-warming experience, then Cheetah Experience is a must! We are doing our best to conserve endangered species, with special focus on the conservation and breeding of the cheetah. Other species include lions, leopards, servals, caracals and wolves.

In order to raise money for our non-profit organisation, we have opened our doors to you; the public. So why not join us for a tour! Details on the tours can be found below. We look forward to seeing you!

    

We need your contributions! Can you help with our wishlist?
 

Volunteer Jobs Available!

On a Gap year or holiday? Looking for volunteer opportunities with big cats? Want to play a part in saving endangered wild animals in South Africa? Whatever your skills and however much time you have to offer, animal volunteering is a real 'hands-on' experience, helping to save them from extinction. Come and spend an unforgettable time volunteering at our conservation center! Click here for more info!


What to Expect on a Tour?

Our outdoor tours are about 45 minutes and are hosted by a knowledgeable tour guide. After paying your entrance fee at the Curio Shop we gather at the LAPA for a quick audio visual which provides an informative introduction of the necessary rules and regulations. Thereafter, you will get to touch and photograph cheetahs, interact with lions, caracals and other cubs when available. We also take you really close to the adult animal enclosures and this provides purrfect photo opportunities – your photo collection would not be complete without pictures of lions romping about. We have a bar at the Lapa and you are most welcome to enjoy a drink or two after the tour.
