From the porch if you look to the left there are two of the biggest tigers on the property. Straight ahead is the little raccoon type guy named flip and to the right are a group of tigers. But you will have small access right outside of your suite where you can walk and get pretty close to all of them. And from the porch and even the bed with windows closed you can HEAR the lions.
I read a tip from a previous guest that recommended the "Photography Opportunity". I also saw this on your web page, but I couldn't get it to open up to the page. Could you provide more information about this Opportunity? Thank you, Future 1st time guest!

The Photowild tours have been discontinued which is why you weren't able to open the link on our website. We're hoping to offer another similar opportunity after the New Year. Check back with us then for more details.
Not from inside the suite but you can see them from the porch. We hope you come and stay with us and see our big, beautiful cats! let us know if you have any other questions.
My 9 yr old nephew loves animals. Do you think this place is suitable for me to take him for an adventure. Is there anyone there to talk about he animals? What is the price range per night here?
A:
It's perfect for him! The interns there are very knowledgable and there are guided tours every day. Your stay will cost you about $150 per night.
