How to Book a Tour with the Wild Cat Education and Conservation Fund
Updated
Summer and fall tours are available, and booking is handled directly by phone or email. The Wild Cat Education and Conservation Fund arranges private tours, so you contact the organization first to reserve a time rather than buying a ticket on arrival. The site's own notice reads: "Summer/Fall Tours are available! Please give us a call or send us an email to book a private tour."
What the Fund Is
The Wild Cat Education and Conservation Fund is an organization with three stated goals:
- Educate the public about the decreasing population of wild cat species around the world
- Provide funding for worldwide wild cat conservation projects
- Offer safe refuge for captive wild cats
Tours are part of that education mission — they give visitors a way to see and learn about the animals the Fund cares for.
How to Book
The site lists two booking channels, with no online form or calendar:
- Call the Fund to request a private tour.
- Email the Fund to request a private tour.
Because tours are private and arranged individually, you should confirm availability before making travel plans. The site does not publish a booking form, an online schedule, or a list of available dates, so the phone call or email is the step that starts the process.
What to Confirm When You Reach Out
Since the site does not spell out tour logistics, ask directly about:
- Available dates and times during the summer/fall tour season
- Group size limits for a private tour
- Whether a fee or donation is expected
- Age or accessibility considerations for your group
- Directions and arrival instructions
Common Hangups
- No online booking. If you look for a "Book Now" button or ticket page, you won't find one — contact is by phone or email only.
- Seasonal availability. Tours are described as summer/fall, so off-season requests may not be possible.
- Private format. A private tour is scheduled around your group, which means flexibility on dates depends on the Fund's availability, not a fixed public schedule.
If You Want to Support Without Visiting
The site notes that involvement helps ensure the cats' future and thanks supporters. If a tour isn't possible, you can still reach out by phone or email to ask how to contribute to the conservation and refuge work.
