Panthera Africa is a non-profit company with Section 18A Tax exemption status. All the proceeds from ticket sales goes towards the animals and creating a better life for them. All the animals were rescued from breeding facilities, and circuses.
Stanford is situated in the heart of the Cape Whale and White Shark Coast about 140km from Cape Town, and is easily reached by car (1hr, 45 min).
You have the choice of two amazing yet very different routes.
Route one - Mountain pass
Route two - Ocean view
Both routes join up with the R43 that leads you towards and through Hermanus to Stanford. When entering Stanford make a left onto the R326 towards Caledon / Riviersonderend. Continue on the tar road for approximately 4km and make a right turn towards Papiesvlei. Continue on the gravel road for 3.5km till you see the Panthera Africa sign on your right. Drive 1.3km, through the neighbouring farm, and follow the signs to the entrance.
