Lion Park Resort, Gaborone

3.5

The only theme park in the country, Lion Park Resort features a separate lion enclosure, water slides, and many rides, including the tallest roller coaster in Africa. If you came to see the lions, ask for a guide at the ticket counter. A small Ferris wheel offers an encompassing view of the whole park. The park also features a shaded, paved campsite where you can spend the night (but be aware that you may be kept awake by roaring lions). Activities and rides are mostly suited for children and teenagers.

Lots of fun for the whole family...especially for the kids! Entrance fee not too bad if you take into consideration that you can spend a whole day in the resort and all the attractions are incl. The restaurant's menu & prices not too bad...service is poor! The music tends to be too loud...
