Thank you so much, yes now I can remember again.

I did not book ahead. Arrived around 9:45am. There was only one other visitor at the centre. So although we only paid the standard admission price we got a "private" tour from one of the guides. So, my advice is to get there early.

Hello, thank you for your enquiry. It is not necessary to book for the EcoKidz Family Challenge. You can arrive anytime after 9am and before 14h30. Regards Mandy

Hi Thank you for the message.. Our Wild Cat Experience Tour departs every 30 min. It is a 1 hour tour. You will see all the Cats. Our Cheetah Walks, Crazee Cat Day and Photographic Combo's have to be booked in advance to avoid disappointment. You can book online via our website, or by telephone/email. Unfortunately we do not have German guide but we do have a brochure that has detailed descriptions and information of all the animals in French and German.. Please let me know if you need more information Regards Tenikwa Management

HI Sophie... there is loads of parking and defo try and see the animals either early morning or late pm when they are ready for their dinner. The cheetah walking is fab, we spent a whole day at Tenikwa and loved it so much we are going back in Nov. I would suggest that if you want something a little bespoke e-mail them and ask, they are all so lovely and will I am sure accommodate you. The rue of thumb is that all tours and interaction with the animals is totally about the animals and their needs, you fit in around them which is why we loved it. You will have the best time for sure....

Hi Steve & Christine, Thanks for your email. We are looking forward to hosting you. Unfortunately, your son is too young for the cheetah walk. He needs to be 16 years for this. We can keep him busy though whilst you go on the walk and he can join you for the first part of the program. Regards Mandy

Hello Pauline Thanks for your query. Yes, we do have a French-speaking guide at Tenikwa. You just need to request this when you book so we can organise for you. We also have a handout on the cats which is in French to assist you. Regards Mandy

The walk generally leaves at about 16h30 and you get back to the centre at around 18h00. If you do the Photographic Tour in the afternoon, it runs at a different time to the Cheetah Walk because of the light for photographs, so that will not really work out so well as an option. If you change it to a morning Sunrise Walk, then doing the Photographic Tour is an option as one can do the walk and the other a photographic tour at 07h30 in the morning, both finishing around 09h00. The photographic tour is also a very nice tour, where you get exclusive time to spend photographing the cats. You go into the enclosure with a lot of the cats including the cheetahs and the young lions at this point. The big difference is that we do not allow any physical contact with the cats on the Photographic Tour so you will not be able to touch them, but for photographs it is much nicer really because then you get photographs of the cheetahs without their harnesses and you see all the different cats. Perhaps you should both book for a Sunrise Photographic Combo which is the morning cheetah walk at 07h30 followed by the Photographic Tour. We can try to look after your son so you both go on the walk, and if there is really a problem then we can call one of you back, and then all go on the photographic tour afterwards. Regards Mandy
