Get Close to Africa's Big Cats & Wildlife
Just 45 minutes from the heart of Johannesburg, the Lion & Safari Park offers an unforgettable close-up encounter with Africa's most iconic wildlife. This half-day tour is perfect for travellers with limited time who want an authentic safari experience near the city.
Board an open-top safari vehicle for a guided game drive through separate predator enclosures, where you'll see lion prides including rare white lions, cheetahs, wild dogs, hyenas, and jackals. Your expert guide explains the behaviour, conservation status, and fascinating facts about each species.
The highlight for many visitors is the hands-on experience — hand-feed towering giraffe from a raised platform, and watch feeding time for the big cats. The park also houses zebra, wildebeest, gemsbok, and other plains game in their free-roaming enclosures.
