Being part of this team was phenomenal!
by: Sam Duggan - AustraliaProgram: Save Africa’s Iconic Wildlife at MoholoholoDuring my time with African Conservation Experience, I visited Moholoholo Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre.

That was a really special experience. I also helped look after the lions and cheetahs every day and that is something that I never thought I would be able to say! I think it's an experience that you wo...
ACE and Moholo were absolutely amazing!!
by: Taiya Driggers - United StatesProgram: Save Africa’s Iconic Wildlife at MoholoholoACE made my trip so much easier.

When I thought I was lost in the airport I made a quick call to them and they helped me find the right way. Truly made the experience so much better because of their...
