Lion Walk Guided Tour Adventure

We had an absolutely fantastic day with Mo! He originally took us to our Lion Walk at Ukutula Conservation Center, which was absolutely spectacular. We loved seeing how well the animals are treated and learning about the conservation and research being done to help ensure that lions and cheetahs continue to exist for generations to come. It was not only an incredible experience, but also very educational, and we learned so much during our visit. At the last minute, we asked Mo if he could also take us on a tour of Soweto, and he made it happen without hesitation. What made the experience so special was how personal it was. Mo took us into the community where he was born and raised and gave us an authentic look at life in Soweto. He even arranged for us to visit a local home, giving us a perspective we never would have experienced on a typical tour. We truly appreciated his openness and willingness to share his community and his story with us. One of the most meaningful parts of the day was visiting the Kliptown Youth Program, which Mo is one of the founders of. It was inspiring to learn about the incredible work they are doing and how donations are helping children attend school, pursue their education, and have opportunities to achieve their dreams. Mo was so much more than a guide. He shared his home, his community, and his passion with us and made the entire day incredibly special. From walking with lions and learning about conservation to experiencing Soweto through the eyes of someone who was born and raised there, this was truly an unforgettable day. We are so grateful that Mo was our guide. The experiences and memories we made with him are ones we will never forget. Thank you, Mo, for an amazing day! ❤️ Highly recommend!

Thank you 🙏 we had an amazing time, staring with our driver Bryan, he was very kind, always smiling and helpful. Our tour was more than we expected, no words can express how we enjoyed our tour. Definitely if we come back to South Africa we will not hesitate to do a tour with you again. Thank you 🙏

Words cannot express the gratitude that I have for this company. My booking got messed up last min and they went above and beyond to make sure to squeeze me in the same day. The entire tour was amazing from start to finish and the staff was super friendly and so knowledgeable about each and every animal. It’s more than just a walk, it’s definitely a learning experience.

The reserve was three hours from Johannesburg, South Africa. We had a fabulous time! It was certainly an experience of a lifetime! Thank you so much for offering this tour. The lions were majestic. It was so exciting to walk with them. We were also able to pet a cheetah and interact with the cubs. Our driver/guide Collins was exceptional. He is professional, personable, articulate, thoughtful and accommodating. I rate him a 6 out of 5 stars! He has a wealth of knowledge about South Africa, and he was very engaging in providing the history of the country. He has a good sense of humor and such a joy to be with. He made sure we were comfortable in the car, asking us if the temperature was okay and if we needed more water. He was very accommodating to our needs. He is an asset to your team.

This experience was truly one of a kind. I flew to Johannesburg just for this experience and stayed 1 day to turn around back to the USA. I truly wanted to meet the lions. Our driver from our hotel to the lodge and back was named Collins, and he was PHENOMENAL! Collins was so knowledgeable about South Africa and made our drive action-packed. He was calm and mannered, made us feel safe, and guided us in ways I didn't anticipate! He truly went above and beyond for us two ladies! Once arriving at the park, there was a lot of confusion about the package we booked. Nevertheless, the park was able to accommodate a tour at a reasonable time for us, and we truly enjoyed it. After our tour, we went to see if we would be able to meet the lion cubs, as we originally thought we booked the full tour that included that. The woman in the office did try to accommodate us for an upcharge, but ultimately said no one was available to take us. Our original tour guide somehow found the owner and told him about my dream to see the cubs before flying back home. The owner and our guide made sure we got a small private moment with the cubs, and it was the HIGHLIGHT of my experience. Very intimate, very hands-on, I will never forget meeting them. This entire experience at the lodge was a dream come true for me. I am beyond grateful for the male tour guides who made it memorable by taking videos for us and being great at what they do. I would do this tour a thousand times over. Don't hesitate to book, but also, if you can, confirm what you booked before arriving at the park, as the park seems to be a bit all over the place with reservations.
