Great up close views - Literally couldn't have gotten any closer to the lions (on several occasions) and rhinos (the guide had to move the truck when one got a bit too close. We saw three cheetah, spring box, antelope, wildebeest, buffalo, zebra, ostrich , and so much more. Great facility and good food options at the restaurant. Well worth the short drive from Johannesburg, but note, this isn't an actual safari but rather a curated drive through several separate, gated compounds that the predators from each other. The predators are fed so they don't have to hunt for themselves and the other animals get hay supplements that ensure they bunch together for easy viewing.

Amazing experience beyond my imagination of what it would be like. - Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. He knew where to find all the animals we wanted to see. I learned new things from him that I had not known before. It really was an amazing experience and one that I will treasure and recommend to others.

Nice mini-safari experience - Included a pickup from my Sandton hotel. I expected a group, but it turned out that I was the only customer at that starting time, so I was taken there with a private quide in a passenger car. Guide/driver MK was friendly and knowledgeable. During game drive I saw many instances of lions and ostrichs at a very close proximity for long periods of time, at least zebras, springbocks, wildebeests, impalas, wild dogs, and wild pigs at a close proximity, and a buffalo, an eland, and rhinos from longer distance. There was also a small zoo with leopards and the other main big cats, reptiles, and pygmy hippos, and we spent about half an hour there. It was also possible to hold a big snake (not sure if it is always possible there). I recorded about short 50 video clips and took pictures.

Safari experience - We enjoyed seeing all the animals in their natural habitat. But the most memorable experience was seeing the lions and cheetah feeding time .

Great experience - Had a wonderful experience here this past weekend. Our guide, Clement, was great and very friendly, felt like he was having just as much fun as we were. Would definitely recommend him for those going on future tours.

Amazing experience - Huge park with lot of species. Park ranger (Nico) is knowledgeable and funny. He made sure he tries his best to show us more but since it’s the wild nature, you might be lucky might not.

Never book with Virgio Tours!!! - This company Virgio Tours are con artist who tried to switch the tour from guided on a Rhino and Lion Park vehicle to self-guided because their driver did not arrive on time to make it to the guided tour. The company then lied to Viator to prevent us from receiving our full refund. I would never recommend this company for a tour. Spend your money elsewhere these folks are con artists and liars.
