Self-Guided Safaris

Join us during these Open Park events at the Animal Park!

Looking for something wildly fun AND flexible for your family? Our new Self-Guided Safari tours are the PERFECT way to enjoy the Animal Park without the confines of our typical guided tours. These Safaris will start April 3rd and 4th – with operating hours between 10AM and 2PM.

Our Visitor’s Services building serves as the hub for all the activities at the Park and is where your Self-guided Safari will begin! Check in with one of our friendly staff members before heading straight into the park to visit with our Residents. Afterwards, enjoy our picnic space if you’d like to pack a fun picnic! We are looking to offer concessions in the near future.

These Self-Guided Safaris will be a fun way for you and your family to enjoy the Park at your own leisure. We have created fun packets for kids to use to become Animal Park explorers! this means visiting the various stations within the Park and learning all about the species we are home to. Guests can also enjoy our newly cleared out walking trails near our Visitors Services building.

Make sure to follow along as we continue to roll out more Self-Guided Safari weekends – a perfect way to spend the day!
