Lion & Safari Park

An Unforgettable Self-Drive Safari Experience! 🦁 We absolutely loved our visit to the Lion & Safari Park! The self-drive safari was an incredible experience — the park is beautifully maintained and offers a perfect balance of adventure and safety. Seeing lions and lionesses up close in their enclosures was both thrilling and awe-inspiring. The animals looked well cared for, and the enclosures were secure, allowing us to fully enjoy the moment without any worries. The whole experience was smooth, scenic, and truly memorable. Highly recommend this park to anyone looking to get a real taste of African wildlife up close — it’s well worth it!

Such a memorable day. It was my birthday so it was a great way of celebrating it here with all the animals. Lions are so beautiful and we were lucky enough to see the leopards. There are some places you can walk around and take photos. Also dont miss the other lions across the main road.

We were very lucky to do the tour with Alex and have him all to ourselves! I told him on the day that it was one of the best afternoons of my life (he replied I must have had a very boring life!) and I still feel the same. The opportunity to see these amazing, beautiful big cats so close up (very very close up!) was something I never imagined I’d have. And to hear Alex talk about his life with them and see first hand his relationship with them made it even more special. If you have the chance to do Alex’s tour - do it!

Amazing to drive with the animal and see beautiful landscape. If and if only you have a 4x4, you can practice off road path. It's awesome to do it and you have a nice view on the top of the hill. You also can after your safari have a break to the restaurants. Simple food, not expensive, cold beer... Last but not least, around noon please be in the cage number 3 or 4 to see the medic fill the lions... It's impressive.

Always have had a good experience at this park every time I've come. The self drive is amazing. Your definitely going to see the animals up close and in your own time. The location and place is well set out. They have a huge gift shop which is quiet cool and separated over 5 domes. They also have a giraffe you are able to feed there. They also have restaurants onsite. The website states they are "halaal friendly" but haven't elaborated anymore. The one restaurant I asked said they weren't halal.

Must visit if you need to see lions and lionesses roaming around your car and walk by your car. They have many options like self drive, guided tour. We took self drive the cost is around 285R. But limited animals. Only lions, cheetah, wild dogs, wild pigs, hyenas and near restaurants Giraffe was there. They also have horse raiding for kids

Just under a 30-minute drive from Johannesburg, the Lion Safari Park offers an exciting and accessible wildlife experience. Visitors can choose between guided tours or a self-drive option through the park. One of the highlights was witnessing the lions being fed — a truly thrilling sight! The park is home to a variety of animals, including lions, hyenas, wild dogs, cheetahs, zebras, wildebeests, and several species of buck. It's a great place to spend the day with family or friends, offering both adventure and education in a safe environment. Highly recommended for locals and tourists looking for a fun and memorable day out.

It is all secure park first of all. We bought 2 hours tour and it was amazing and satisfying. We loved our tour guide Dusty she has so much energy. Thanks 🙏💐
