Creator's Key Takeaways

If you're thinking of booking this, I would 100% say do it. It is absolutely awesome.

The snow leopards were awesome. That's with the gorillas, but I don't know. The snow leopards were very very cool.

It's not a cheap night, but it's it's pretty good value, isn't it, for what you get for it, I think.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Check the weather for the specific location, not where you live, as it gets much colder at night.
βœ“Book the Leopard Creek cabins for the unique skylight feature and better privacy.
βœ“If you want better coffee, visit the coffee house rather than the main Pavilion Cafe.
βœ“Pick your days to visit to avoid crowds; weekdays or winter visits are quieter.

Privacy in accommodations β€” Choose Leopard Creek or treehouses over the 'bubble' accommodation for better privacy.
Cold weather during the stay β€” Bring warm layers as the open buggy rides and night-time activities get very chilly.
