Lion, Elephant & Wildlife Management, Antelope Park

My experience at Antelope Park was nothing short of amazing. I was able to engage in various projects, meet wonderful people, and learn so much about the African culture and about myself as well. I enjoyed every minute of my stay there and cannot wait to come back soon!

Visiting Antelope Park was truly an experience that I’ll never forget. Coming from Canada I wanted to see some nature and wildlife that may not be visible from where I live and I was amazed by the beauty of the park, definitely a once in a lifetime experience. What made it even more special was the warmth and dedication of the staff. Everyone went out of their way to make me feel welcome and cared for. Although it is nerve-wracking going to a new place with people you don’t know, I felt like I was at home within the first day of arriving. I was on the wildlife program and Jono was not only incredibly knowledgeable about wildlife but also had a great sense of humour that kept the energy high and the group engaged. Whether he was sharing stories, teaching us something new, or just cracking a well-timed joke, he made every day fun and memorable. His enthusiasm for the animals and the work being done at the park was contagious, and it made the whole experience that much more rewarding. Pip, who was also absolutely wonderful — so organized, approachable, and genuinely kind. Her passion for the park and the people in it really showed, and her presence made a huge difference in making my stay smooth. Antelope Park isn’t just a place to visit — it’s a place that stays with you with memories that will last a lifetime. I’m so grateful for the experience.

My two weeks at Antelope Park did not disappoint. The staff, volunteers and experiences, particularly the close encounters with wildlife far surpassed my expectations! It was an incredible experience. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
