Suggested Duration: 4 hours

Lion and Cheetah Park, established in the 1970s by the Bristow family, offers a unique opportunity to experience Zimbabwe's wildlife against a backdrop of dramatic balancing rocks. Visitors can enjoy a self-drive safari through the park, spotting animals like white lions, tawny lions, wolves, and monkeys, many of which have been rescued from difficult circumstances. Guided walking tours allow for closer encounters with the animals, and a visit to ancient bushman rock paintings adds a cultural element to the trip. After a day of wildlife exploration, guests can relax at the Shumba Café or visit the adjacent Snake World to discover a variety of reptiles. This family-friendly destination combines education and adventure in a beautiful natural setting.

A really nice place to visit near Harare. If someone has no time for a long safari trip you can see Lions Girrafes and Zebras here. The old turtle is a real must see (over 150 years). Other animals are also available to see and you can pet the baby lions.

Arrived early, very quite. Staff were friendly. Kiosk had lots of gifts in and a kitchen. No coffee available today, only tea. Overall Nice place to visit but there are things that could be improved on. But still a nice day out.

I came with not so high expectations and it paid well not to as I was also massively underwhelmed. There were 3 lions in the drive through part, then the usual wild game, zebras, giraffes etc Without a tour guide it felt like a large part of the drive though was spent driving and seeing trees. The white lions area definitely worth the visit and for ten bucks you can play with the cubs.

We enjoyed this trip very much! Besides the magnificent lions, there are also plenty of other animals to see that got the kidd very excited, especially the wolves. We had a very friendly and knowledgeable guide escorting us through the park, telling us about the animals and their history. Package included a game drive where we got to see close-up, plenty of other animals in the wild. Charges are very reasonable too.
