“This was easily the best activity of my life. It was personal and very well done, as well as being informative and safe. The lions were obviously naturally raised and well cared for.”   Khetthai Laksanakarn, Thailand

“What a way to experience lions up close and personal. Bigger and better than I expected. Awesome!"  Jane Baldwin, Australia

WALK WITH AFRICAN LIONS

Support the African Lion Rehabilitation & Release into the Wild Program; Africa's first genuine programme to ethically re-introduce the offspring of rehabilitated captive-bred African lion back into the wild, helping safeguard the future of the king of the beasts.

Two stunning venues, one incredible memory!

Lion Encounter operates on both sides of the majestic Victoria Falls; at Masuwe Lodge within the Zambezi National Park in Zimbabwe, and next to Thorntree Lodge in the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park in Zambia.  

As seen on ITV's LION COUNTRY...

Lion Encounter has recently been featured in a six part series aired on the UK's ITV network; drawing 4.8 million viewers for its first episode.  A second series filmed during 2010 is now on air in the UK in a longer one hour per episode format.  We hope a worldwide broadcast is not far away.

 

 
Lion Encounter operates in proud association with the African Lion & Environmental Research Trust, a non-profit making organization dedicated to the facilitation and promotion of sound conservation and management plans for the African Lion. Visit www.lionalert.org for more details.
