Okonjima Game Reserve

Reviewed By danielgc205 - Windhoek, Namibia

It couldn't have been a better experience. Great in all senses: the staff, the place, the activities, the views, the educational side of it, the information provided and the food. Everything really well done and the care for the animals top of the pops! We're locals to Namibia; we'll come back for sure. Thanks for the splendid experience!!

Cheetah Conservation Fund

A unique opportunity to experience conservation in action! CCF is the global leader in cheetah research, conservation, and education. Its Centre, 44 km east of Otjiwarongo, is open to the public all year round (8 am - 5 pm) except Christmas. CCF works to keep cheetahs in the wild and educate the public. However, it provides sanctuary to injured or orphaned cheetahs, many of which cannot be released back into the wild. Learn about the cheetah's plight, watch them being fed or exercised at high speeds, meet some of our scientists. Our Model Farm teaches farmers how to co-exist with predators. Visitors can meet some of CCF's Livestock Guarding Dogs and their flocks of sheep and goats. You can also try our home-made goat-milk cheese, ice cream or fudge at the Cheetah Cafe. Cheetah View Lodge and Babson House luxury accommodations available and an educational campsite for school groups available.

I arrived just before feeding time with the meat (Donkey - I think) portioned out. The keepers were very informative and open to all questions to enhance your experience. The cafe and gift shop were also good and had extra experiences you could do. I did the Cheetah drive which again was very informative and drive through an enclosure observing the cheetahs. I worthwhile experience in the CCF and what they are doing to help and protect this graceful animal.

Africat

Reviewed By 971robertaf - Woollahra, Australia

Our room was divine with large windows overlooking the park. The pool and pool area was lovely and the gift shop is great. What we loved the most was going out with our guide to track the leopards. Some, not all, have a collar that let's the guide know their general area. We were lucky and tracked a beautiful leopard for quite some way. Our guide knew her territory so we waited while she marked it and managed to get some fabulous photos. There were about five or six small groups each with their own guide. Everyone saw a leopard but for some it was a glimpse in the bushes at distance. We loved it as we also saw baboons, sable, snakes and many other animals. Early the next morning we saw the rescue cheetahs. We didn't have time to attend the educational centre but I believe it's wonderful. We were so pleased we came to Africat after several days in Etosha National Park. The tourist dollar means protection for this beautiful animal.

Mahango Game Reserve

Reviewed By LadyDtravel - Cradock, South Africa

This is a lovely small park. We enjoyed a slow pace through the park to mainly spot new birds. But due to the slow pace we got to see so many animals. We saw elephants, buffalo, hippos, crocodiles,herds of antelope and sable, giraffes, monitors, mongoose, really good bird sightings, etc. Take a slow pace here. You'll be done within 4 hours.

Hoba Meteorite

Reviewed By 658yairk - Giv'atayim, Israel

It was very interesting to see that meteorite, a gift from our universe to Earth. The size of the meteorite is impressive, a good opportunity to take a picture of you near it.
