Geography
Conveniently located just one hour by car from downtown Toronto, Ontario, the African Lion Safari is about 10 miles off of Highway 6. The area is isolated and reminiscent of a true African safari.
Features
The African Lion Safari features more than just lions. Visitors can drive through the reserve and see giraffes, monkeys and a variety of birds.
Considerations
Guided bus tours are offered for an additional fee, allowing individuals, couples and families to learn about the vast aspects of the African animals in a wild environment simulating their native habitat.
Benefits
Additional expeditions can be had through water or by rail. The "African Queen" boat cruises on a lake where visitors see a number of waterfowl, while the "Nature Boy" railroad brings guests into a natural forest with a wide variety of forest creatures.
More Adventures
For those looking for a more relaxed adventure, the African Lion Safari also features various animal performances. These include parrot and bird shows, as well as elephant swimming entertainment.
