Here you meet Gerry, a hand-reared giraffe, and learn about African wildlife through educational programs and guided talks. The centre focuses on conservation, offering school programs and one-on-one giraffe encounters by pre-booking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeekends and holidays bring farmyard feeding sessions, where you can interact with zebras, meerkats, owls, porcupines, and crocodiles. The site also includes South Africa’s national animals and birds, such as the springbok and the blue crane. Two jungle gyms and a lawn area provide space for children to play, and the Giraffic Eats Kiosk offers snacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe centre is open-air, so dress for the weather — hats and sunscreen in summer, warm clothing and gumboots in winter.
