Cheetah Outreach with Cape Falls - do it!! - Great opportunity to get close to a cheetah, lovely staff and great educational content. It’s quite a short (but amazing) experience, you don’t really see too much of the cheetahs beyond this, otherwise BUT you can stay as long as you want at the park to view them (may need patience) and also many other exotic animals. We were lucky enough to see a baby cheetah too. Henry from Cape Falls tours was excellent & made the day - recommended.

It was such a good day... - It was such a good day out. Our tour guide and driver were friendly and engaging and the Cheetah encounter was amazing. The Cheetah was so relaxed and happy to be petted, which is a reflection on how well they are looked after and safe they feel. The beaches were lovely too, with perfect weather. Booking through Viator with Cape Falls Tours was easy and inexpensive and they arranged the standard Cheetah encounter for you so that you didn't have to book that separately or worry about being a "walk in" on the day, all you needed to do was pay the entry and encounter fee at the outreach.

Lovely Cheetah Interaction - We had an amazing time meeting Tobias (cheetah), who seemed to really be enjoying his pets and time with the visitors. The staff and volunteers were friendly and inviting and they do amazing work taking care of all the animals there, which now includes a new cheetah cub. They took some great photos of us petting the Cheetah too. Booking this through Cape Falls Tours was easy and inexpensive and our tour guide, Principal, was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you for a great day!

A Memorable Tour with an Amazing Host! - I had an absolutely wonderful time on the Cheetah Outreach Tour last week, coupled with visits to Gordon’s Bay and Strand Beaches. My guide, Elifas, truly made the experience unforgettable. From the moment we began, he kept the ride entertaining with his great sense of humor and fascinating stories about the local areas, as well as his personal journey since moving to Cape Town from Zimbabwe. His knowledge and warm personality added so much to the trip.
The Cheetah Outreach was a highlight - being able to see cheetahs up close, touch one briefly, and have a photo taken by a ranger (all while in very safe hands) was an incredible experience. Afterward, we briefly stopped by Strand Beach for a photo opportunity before heading over to Gordon’s Bay. There, I had more time to explore the shops, enjoy some food, and take a relaxing walk along the beautiful beach before heading back to Cape Town.
Elifas was a gracious and entertaining host who truly cared about making the trip special for me. Thank you for an unforgettable experience - I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cape Town!

Touching Cheetah! - チーターの保護施設で、チーターに触れることができました!
一瞬触れるだけかと思っていましたが、なでなですることができ、感動しました。チーターの息遣いも感じることができました。
動画や写真はスタッフさんが手慣れた手つきで撮影してくれ、ありがたかったです。
ツアーガイドのPrincipalはホスピタリティに溢れ、日本文化の話で盛り上がることもでき、とても楽しかったです!
I could touch cheetahs at a Cheetah Outreach!
I thought that I could touch cheetah, but I was really impressed because I could stroke it. I could even feel the cheetah's breathing.
I was grateful that the videos and photos were taken by experienced staff.
Our tour guide, the principal, was also full of hospitality, and we had a lot of fun talking about Japanese culture!

Let's Touch Cheetah! - チーターが安全に触れます。チーターは絶滅危惧種で気分屋ですが、ここはたくさんのチーターを飼っており安全に触ることができます。飼育員はしっかりと分かりやすく注意点を教えてくれますし、素敵な写真もたくさん撮ってくれました。なんといってもチーターの毛並み、身体は美しくタッチした感動は忘れられません。あと私が付け加えたいのはガイドをしてくれたプリンシパルです。彼はガイド中とても楽しい雰囲気を作ってました。こちらのお願いにもとでも誠実に対応してくれました。南アフリカの友達が出来ました。ありがとうプリンシパル。
You can touch cheetahs safely. Cheetahs are an endangered species and can be moody, but this zoo has many cheetahs and you can touch them safely. The zookeepers clearly explained the precautions and took many wonderful photos for us. The cheetahs' fur and bodies were beautiful and I will never forget the excitement of touching them. I would also like to mention our guide, Principal. He created a very fun atmosphere during the tour. He responded sincerely to our requests. I made a South African friend. Thank you, Principal.

Great learning experience. - The hands on visit with the cheetah was really special and well worth it. Just as special was our guide Ishmael. He paid attention to the individual interest and then went out of his way to highlight those areas. I personally learned an amazing amount of South African history.
He explained many aspects of South Africa you don't find in books. Also a genuine nice person.

What A Great Time! - This excursion was a fantastic and outstanding part of our trip to Africa. The two fine young men, Ismael and the Principle were our guides and teachers as we explored customs, wildlife, lifestyle, history and outstanding sights and people of Cape Town. They taught us a little language, displayed courtesy, described regions and made us laugh as they toured us through the surrounding regions and beautiful farmlands of South Africa. And we laughed all the way! Go on this tour if you have a brief time available to understand and explore this fascinating part of our world. We highly recommend and want you to experience this great exploration like we did. Just Go!!
