Cyril shares his experience with Briefly News
Speaking to Briefly News, Cyril said that he was initially nervous before realising he needed to be calm not to startle the lions.
"I've seen it before, and I've always wanted to do it, so when friends of mine from New York came to visit, I took them to a lodge that does lion walks, and we had a fantastic experience walking with lions. I would not encourage everyone to do it as it is a risky thing to do. However, it is done under the guidance of rangers who spent years with the lions, so you're not completely alone in the experience," he added.
