Bothongo Rhino & Lion Nature Reserve
Over the past few years I have frequently brought groups to the park. Unfortunately I am seeing a slow degeneration of the park. The facilities are not always well maintained, especially the area at the picnic site. The reptile show is no more and the cages at the back can rather be closed than to let tourists in there that ask questions like: "Why is it allowed to keep animals in such conditions". Over all it is still worth it to bring groups to the park, but I think in future I will steer clear of the picnic site. Regards - Manie
The experience at the park was amazing , The delegation we came with had a wonderful experience. The customer service was smooth and efficient, There were no complications or hiccups during our trip. We will definetly be recommending the park to more defence attache's for more upcoming foreign visits - Lungelo
We enjoyed our visit with the family very much since we saw wild dogs, cheetahs and lions so close while feeding and rhinos, zebras and buffaloes together in one place - Jens
My girlfriend and I had an amazing time doing the self-drive experience. We loved every part of it and really enjoyed seeing the animals and exploring the reserve at our own pace. It was a great experience from start to finish, and we would definitely recommend it! - Nathan
