This is a DO NOT MISS adventure. To walk, pet and caress a Full grown Cheetah is simply incredible. The guides are professionals, the animals tame and the mission a worthy cause to save the decreasing numbers of this magnificent animal.

Wonderful experience

Elise_C, Apr 2025

My husband and I were utterly thrilled by this once in a lifetime experience. To walk with and pet these marvellous animals was a real privilege and some ear tickling brought on the loudest of purrs. I even had them drinking water out of my cupped hand. Just amazing. One of the best activities ever.

Fantastic, but Expensive

Andre_N, May 2024

This experience was fantastic. However being Australian, $311.00 AUD (190 USD) is a bir much for the hour. Cheaper $150 USD if you go straight to the Cheater Experience by yourself without Fong through an agency. Still this is still too high. Oh well if your in Zimbabwe at Victoria Falls. Do it.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're thrilled to hear that you found the experience fantastic! We strive to offer unforgettable moments with our animals and are glad you enjoyed your time. We understand that the cost may seem high, especially when compared to other options. Our pricing reflects the high level of care and conservation efforts we provide for our animals. However, we appreciate your perspective and will consider your feedback as we continuously strive to improve our offerings. We hope that despite the cost, the memories you made were worth it. If you find yourself back in Zimbabwe at Victoria Falls, we would love to welcome you again.

Wow a must do while in Zimbabwe

Patrick_t, May 2024

Did the lion and cheetah encounters and was definitely a must do. One of the highlights of our trip and a once in a lifetime experience. Every one was so friendly. Keep up the hard work for conservation of these beautiful animals
