Awesome experience
Zoo people amazing as cheerful and informative. Something that I’ll treasure for life 😊👍
An awesome and memorable experience
What an awesome experience! From the staff who greeted and briefed us and ever so patiently demonstrated their great knowledge in answering our many questions to the patience of the cheetahs themselves who coped with these strangers stroking them. To be so close to and able to touch these animals was amazing. This experience was a birthday gift and it was made even more special to think that the $s spent goes towards working to save these animals from extinction.
What you can expect
Join the cheetah Solo on his daily outing and enjoy the rare opportunity to meet and pat one of these amazing creatures. An experienced zookeeper will be with you at all times to answer your questions and guide you as you interact with the fastest cat on earth.

Amazing experience
My husband really enjoyed his encounter with Cheetah. He got to pat him. He said that it was one of the most special experiences he ever has had and that he will never forget Solo! (The Cheetah)
