The Walk With Lions is the signature experience, and the Walk With Lions + Predator Combo is the best-value full day. Add the Lion Waterhole game drive if you want open-vehicle game viewing too.
Bookings and transport on this site are handled by Capital Xperience, an independent booking and transport partner for Ukutula experiences.
Finding Ukutula
The lion walk and predator experiences take place at Ukutula Lodge & Conservation Centre, located on The Farm Klipkop 411, JQ District, Brits, North West Province (GPS -25.521922, 27.673801).
It is roughly 90 minutes' drive from central Johannesburg and about 45 minutes from Pretoria. The route runs north-west on the N4 past Hartbeespoort Dam to Brits, then north to the reserve.
Capital Xperience handles your booking and private door-to-door transport to Ukutula. We are an independent booking and transport partner — not the Ukutula reserve office itself — so there is no walk-in desk; everything is arranged online in advance and you meet your guide at the reserve on the day.
