How to Enjoy Lion and Safari Park

Situated only 13km from Lanseria Airport and only 40min from Johannesburg, the must-see tourist destination; Lion & Safari Park is nestled in the beautiful Magaliesberg mountain range and also within the Cradle of Humankind, a world UNESCO heritage site.

The 600 hectare property is home to a vast selection of indigenous species such as Lion, Cheetah, Hyena, Leopard, Wild Dog, Sable antelope, Kudu, Nyala (to mention only a few), the Lion & Safari Park offers a wealth of exciting activities for all ages, guests are guaranteed to get super-close to some of Africa’s favourite animals whether you go on an informative guided tour or self-drive. Guests can enjoy a variety of different guided tours. The trained guides turn every tour into an informative and educational trip as they share interesting facts. Tour options include; Predator Tour, Mini Safari, Night tours (with predator feeding), Private Exclusive tours, Alex Tour and a 3-hour- flagship Safari Tour.

The park is a paradise for children. The beautifully designed playground next to the restaurants will keep the young ones entertained. This makes the perfect venue for kiddie’s birthday parties. A day visit to the park also provides the perfect opportunity for schoolchildren to learn about the animals and various research programmes that the Lion and Safari Park are involved in. The Bull ‘n Buck grill provides a premier dining experience with a top wine list and a delicious menu, venison, of course, being the Grill’s speciality dish complimenting that true African sensation. Alternatively, the Wetlands Restaurant is a great family choice to enjoy a quick meal whilst enjoying the view of antelope grazing meters away. Take a short walk from the restaurants to visit the meerkat, porcupine and mongoose enclosures.

The park’s photographic center will capture your memories with a great range of printing options such as photobooks, mugs, keyrings, puzzles and more. The ‘5 dome shopping experience’ offers a vast selection of unique hand-crafted curios, jewelry, and clothing, which make great gifts for those back home. Entrance to the restaurants, curio shops, and kiddie’s playground is free, and guests only pay for activities. The cost of a visit to the Lion and Safari Park is well priced for both local and international guests (no extra charge to foreign visitors).

The park is open 365 days a year and is certainly an experience not to be missed.

Lesego Vallery Mathope

A time of our lives, I have only taken part in the game drives in the Pilanesberg as i worked at Sun city for years, but i have never gone a sun set game drive all together, the perfect activity, the best ranger/driver i think her name is Nolu, amazing, very informative and super funny. she was such a delight, we even had an opportunity to experience the lions being fed. she ensured we had the best opportunity for photos and videos - the Giraffe interaction was the HIGHLIGHT second after watching the lions being fed. Absolutely amazing, extremely friendly and attentive staff, from the gate to reception and the drivers. absolutely happy , Value for money.

Thank you for the most incredible experience. Horseback riding and seeing the animals up close cannot be explained in word. A very special thank you to Lawrence who made this experience especially wonderful. If I'm back in South Africa I will most definitely return for another ride.
