    Horrible owner. We drove all the way and nothing was mentioned about tour times. Nothing was mention on the website. Also didnt have a card machine. Very unprofessional, rude, bad manners, shouldn't be in this business because she doesnt know anything about customer service. Didnt feel welcome at all and ended up driving away without seeing anything on a very bad road for 5 kms. Need a 4 by 4 car and after all this the owner didnt even make a plan. What you would expect from a Parys farmer mentality. Not world class or cosmopolitan at all like we are used to. These people shouldn't be in business as they dont know how to deal with other cultures or ethnically groups. Foreign visitors stay away as you will be shocked at the level of the owner of this place. Kindly visit other cheetah places.

    Sadly the presentation although informative could have been more professional it was definitely marred by the person giving the presentation running down the other Cheetah rehabilitation centres and making wild statements about the people who run them. The lack of refreshments on an extremely hot day is a huge oversight I feel one should be reminded on the web page to bring water with as no refreshments are available. The lack of animals made me feel cheated out of my money.

    Tours given at the Dell are informative and offer a unique opportunity to see healthy, happy cats living in large, clean enclosures. They are very well cared for. I volunteered at the Dell for the first time in 2013, and loved it so much I ended up staying almost an extra month. I have also been back in 2015. It was such a wonderful experience, working hands on with the cats. I learned so much. Part of the attraction is the beautiful landscape on and around the property. Also, the meals prepared for us were always top notch. I can't wait to go back!

    Great place doing great work. They have more than just cheetah. Learnt a lot about cheetah and felt very welcome. At the time of my visit they had no real cheetah release program, however they do have the space and passion to be able to rehabilitate and release one day. They are self funded and require the donations of the public and help of their 'live in' voulenteers who come from around the world. Definitely worth a visit.
