This was one of the most beautiful and spectacular experiences I have ever had on a trip. It was definitely an invaluable experience and is wholeheartedly recommended. It is incredible to get so close to these majestic animals! This is an absolute must if you are in the area.
Absolutely loved this tour and the guides were amazing! A must do if you're in area. I was a nervous wreck but the guides made me feel comfortable!
Absolutely unforgettable. Walking with the lions was equal parts humbling and awe-inspiring—being that close to such powerful, majestic animals puts life into sharp perspective. The guides were knowledgeable, calm, and deeply respectful of the lions, which made the experience feel safe and intentional rather than touristy. It was one of those rare moments that reminds you how extraordinary the world is when you step outside your comfort zone. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. 🦁✨
This was truly a great experience! The guides were great with their safety briefings and made sure everyone got a chance to interact with the lions, cubs, and cheetah! We felt safe the entire time and there were breaks between each interaction which was nice. I must admit I was nervous about doing this excursion but it was a bucket list check for my wife so we did it and I'm glad that we did!! Would definitely suggest the staff at Ukutula to enjoy this experience with!
Walking with lions is an amazing experience! We did my mom and I, very well guided by the support team. Without a doubt, a fascinating experience! Unfortunately, we did not have the interaction with the puppies (there were only 2 puppies, one very young and another that was sick), but it was very worth it!
This tour was very amazing! I was very nervous in the beginning but the knowledge of the tour guides helped me to relax and have one of the most memorable experiences.
Once in a lifetime kind of experience! All the workers were very kind and helpful along with the guides being super knowledgeable about the animals. The driver and guide, Thabang, was very knowledgeable on the area and friendly. Amazing experience!
We were picked up on time by Thabang who was very professional. He’s a great driver & very cautious. Everyone at Ukutula was Amazing. Kind professional & patient . My friends & I had an AMAZING EXPERIENCE
All the tour guides were were excellent. Starting with our driver Dennis who picked us up at 6am and drove us 2hr to the tour. He also gave us a mini tour on the way explaining different part of the city as we rode through. Once we reached the lion reserve everything was fully explained and they got the group comfortable enough to walk with the Kings of the jungle. We then went on the Predator tour where we were allowed to pet some lion cubs and a cheetah. I recommend this tour for everyone
The experience was 1 in a million. If you come to Johannesburg I advise you to book this through Tourgy Tourz! My driver Dennis was right on time at my hotel for pickup & on the way to the Lodge explained to me the different cities/cultures surrounding the area. And Dennis is an amazing driver hahah
