About

A wildlife sanctuary in the Ruwa area, rated 4.1 from over 250 Google reviews. It suits families and groups of friends looking for a day out among animals, and the tigers are the attraction visitors mention most.

Reviewers describe a good variety of animals, with the tigers the clear favourite; one visitor enjoyed an interaction with tiger cubs. The same reviewer mentions a game drive, a chance to see snakes and food sold on site. One family recommends timing the visit for the late-afternoon feeding. Visitors credit the team with a friendly manner and a solid knowledge of the animals.

It also works as a place to spend the day around a braai. One group praised an older staff member who went out of his way to make sure their braai ran smoothly, and left planning a longer stay next time. Google lists a wheelchair-accessible car park and entrance.
