1 independent reviews for Volunteer at a wildlife sanctuary in South Africa

Cecilia Stilwell review 24 Mar 2009

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

So many amazing things happened during my stay. My top 3 were:
1) Seeing the cheetahs being fed
2) Helping to rear a meercat baby and Clarke a serval
3) All the jokes and banter between the volunteers

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

I would recommend bringing some DVDs, although the selection is pretty good already. Additionally make sure you bring warm clothes it gets really really cold at night. Finally make sure you bring a good torch.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

9/10 of course there will be highs and lows, nothing is perfect but I had a fantastic time and I would recommend this to anyone on their gap year, especially those who are reapplying to study veterinary science (it really helped me).
