Lion, Elephant & Wildlife Management, Antelope Park

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!!

The wild life program at Antelope park was amazing in every way. I have been lucky enough to experience many incredible things around the world And nothing compares to Antelope Parks wild life program. There is no experience like it. From feeding elephants with my hands, Watching lions eat from 1 metre away, from spending time with a lion cub, Interactions with zebras, giraffes, rhinos and monkeys, you name it AP has it. Johnathan, Katie and Malcolm along with the rest of the staff at AP was super welcoming from the very start. They make it very clear from the start that antelope park is one big family with the same goal, to help, learn and experience as much as possible with the most incredible animals in the world. The food at the camp was 5 star! And the accommodation rooms were very very comfortable. The whole experience was amazing, I would Recommend this program to anyone, from any age, and from anywhere in the world. It’s an experience like no other. From Dan

From the second at arriving at the airport I was greeted with a sign and a big smile, that made me instantly feel safe and in good hands. The whole journey over I was so excited for what the next weeks would bring! All I can say is WOW! Every second was incredible! Ever since I was very young (I’m talking about 3 ish) I always wanted to work with African wildlife, especially the lions!! And my time at Antelope park has made that dream come true, so THANK YOU!! From my whole heart! Honestly being on the wildlife project didn’t feel like real life, I felt like I was in this bubble! I was beyond happy and loved every moment! The wildlife project it’s self was SO fun, no day was the same! Our leader Noxy was the best!! Beyond lovely and made the experience more special!! Every day was action packed, providing care for the most incredible animals! You work so closely along side them, especially the lions, elephants and the rhino’s you learn their personalities and now that’s so special!! I feel so lucky to know these incredible animals and how they behave! We would also always see the other animals too such as zebras, giraffes, impalas and many more! These guys were equally incredible and was so exciting every time we would see them, especially doing a game feed as they would be SO close! Gosh they are all just so beautiful. Everyone around the park is incredibly friendly and always makes sure to wave and say hello! It really does feel like one big happy family, that I feel so lucky to be a part of! I have made such lovely friends along the way too! It’s so nice to have communal areas for us to chill out in all together! The accommodation was kept clean and the lovely ladies would change our beds too (I haven’t experienced this much when volunteering, so was a nice little surprise)! There was a free laundry service, which may I add was SO quick, I had some items come back the same day!!! We also had free wifi, so we could keep in contact with everyone at home and tell them about our adventures!! All meals were provided too! Breakfast, lunch and dinner! It was always so nice to sit with all the other volunteers and catch up with everyone on other projects over a yummy meal! There was also a little coffee shop, ( with the worlds BEST milkshakes!!!) that served food If you fancied something different at a very low price! I’d like to say a big thank you to everyone at Antelope park, you all have all made my trip a memory I’ll never forget! It’s been perfect, honestly my biggest dream come true!! All I can say is if you are ever considering coming, please just book the trip!! You won’t regret it I promise!! This isn’t a goodbye, it will be a see you soon! Big hugs! Thank you again for absolutely everything ❤️
