Collection for this tour is at 09:30 from your Cape Town accommodation. Our qualified nature guide will brief you on the day tour before driving you in one a/c vehicles from Cape Town along the N2 towards Somerset West. There we visit the brand new Cheetah Outreach facility at Paardevlei. We will take part in the standard tour taken by one of Cheetah Outreaches local guides who will explain what the conservation program is all about and also give you lots of information about both the Cheetahs and the Anatolian sheep dogs, which they buy in, train and distribute to farmers to scare away cheetahs from their farmlands, thus saving both the cheetahs and the farmstock. You will also visit the enclosures for the small mammals, like the caracal (lynx) , serval and bat-eared foxes. There is the optional extra opportunity to have a personal cheetah encounter with either an adult cheetah or a cub. (please ask us about the relevant prices of that).

After the visit to Cheetah Outreach we head up the R44 towards Spier Wine estate where we visit the Eagle Encounters facility. We time our visit so that you can take part in the afternoon interactive display. Apart from learning a lot about the facility from the falconer on duty, you also get to meet and touch some of the display birds. After the display we go around  and view all the other birds of prey. Some are in various stages of rehabilitation, others are permanently injured and are looked after at the facility.

Depending on timing we have the option of doing a wine tasting at Spier and/or we can have a lunch at one of their great restaurants. Our guide will discuss these options with you.
