If you only have a short time in Johannesburg and want to see some animals, then the Lion Park is for you. You can see a number of different lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, waterbuffalo, and a number of different antelope including the Springbok. more

We thoroughly enjoyed our outing to the Lion Park. We started the day with a trip through the antelope enclosure and saw Black Wildebeest and Blesbok close to the dirt road.

Amazing experience. Don't think this is just for kids, it'a a wonderful experience and you get to not only see some beautiful lions, but cheetah, giraffe, zebra, ostriches and more. And the drives through the lion enclosures are once-in-a-lifetime, unforgettable experiences. more

A must...

I was recently on a second business trip to Johannesburg from London and was determined to see more than my hotel on this trip amidst back to back meetings. The lion park is a quick and easy way to see gorgeous lions if you only have 2 hours to get out of the city. You get to drive through four... more
