We had a lovely tour in the Tenikwa Wildlife Center today. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgable because he‘s been working at the center for 12 years. He was able to answer all our questions and gave a lot of interesting information about the stunning animals. The animals are treated with great care. We will definitely come back and visit again if possible. Thank you so much, especially to our guide :-) Alina and Klaas from Germany
