Dream come true
by: Iman Muftic - Bosnia & HerzegovinaProgram: Horses & Wildlife Management at Antelope ParkThe entire experience was ao amazing you'd think it's too good to be true. All of the people and animals were really wonderful. It was really cool to experience Africa up close and I will definitely be coming back.
My experience at antelope park
by: Bella De winter - NetherlandsProgram: Horses & Wildlife Management at Antelope ParkI’ve been here for 7 weeks now and everyday is different, I really enjoy how tiny and intimate the groups are and how you get to know everyone. The people that work at horses are so sweet and really know what they are doing. Wildlife is a bit unorganised but that is not the vault of the interns. Overall everything is amazing, the evening activities too!
