Ashia Cheetah Center

We had a great experience at Ashia. We especially chose it because they really do serve a purpose, it was great to get educated about the cheetahs, and also it's not one of those places where the cats are drugged and misused just for tourists. We booked the "Meet a Cheetah" tour and were taken on a tour through the premises by one of their staff members, Dane. It was just the two of us, not a big group, which was actually perfect. We had a really interesting time with Dane, he explained and told us a lot about their project and the cheetahs in their care and could answer all of our questions. Unfortunately, the Cheetah we were supposed to meet was not too interested in us as we were there just around feeding time and naturally his food was more interesting than us. But still, it was great to be able to go into his enclosure and see him without a fence inbetween. I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about the project and those exciting animals!

What an amazing experience. We were treated to something that guests don’t get to experience and we will cherish the memories for a life time. You can see that the people who work here actually care about the animals. The farm itself is pristine with no expenses spared. The enclosures are big and well maintained. The staff were friendly and very knowledgeable.

We stayed over night in the caracal suite which was 5 star. High quality finishes, appliances and furniture with not a bring out of place. We will be back for sure. Our only hope is we get to experience what we experienced again. We miss Xena and Abby.

I obviously appreciate the work they do, however it was not clear to me that you won't see a single live Cheetah unless you go on a paid tour which is 60-90 minutes. Also no under 18's are allowed. ie. No children, which is very unusual. I've only ever visited places like this to show my children! Just glad I found out before I turned up with a toddler, as there is no sign saying this until you get to the front door.
Check out the fun things to do on the website first u0026 remember to book!

Cool place with cheetah’s and leopards. We went for the cheetahrun but it was to windy. Instead we got to help with feeding the cheetahs, very cool experience. The guide tells a lot and took her time to answer all our questions.

Good work being done here. The passion and love for these big cats show in the knowledge and daily activities shared by our guide. We did the basic tour but got a lot out of it. Great sanctuary for those who unfortunately cannot be released and for those who can and ARE!

Amazing experience at Ashia. We were the first visitors since lockdown,and we were blessed to see every cheetah. All came out to greet us. Kate, our guide was amazing, full of interesting facts, and clearly passionate about the animals in her care.
