Animal Experiences
Up-close animal encounters
Meet your favourite animals up close. Our animal experiences make the perfect gift for yourself, family or friends. Whether you want to meet our meerkats, fly a bird-of-prey or feed lunch to the giraffes, we guarantee it’ll be a day you’ll never forget.
All bookings include a full day’s entry to the park and vouchers are valid for 12 months. Our booking calendar for 2025 will open in February.
Mini-keeper experience
A chance for families and younger children to get hands-on with some of our friendly animals down at Pets’ Farm. Guinea pigs, sheep and goats – it’s great fun for ages three-plus.
Keeper for the day
Learn more about what it takes to be a keeper and get a behind-the-scenes look at your favourite animals – including giraffes, rhinos, lions and lemurs.
Giraffe feeding
Get to know our giraffe herd and even do some hand-feeding. No ladder required! One of our most popular animal experiences, you’ll be eye-to-eye with one of Africa’s most iconic giants.
Meet the meerkats
Meet our cheeky meerkat mob. They’ll come running if they think food’s on the way! This fun-filled half-hour can be booked individually or as a family group.
Bird-of-prey experience
Meet the star of our flying display – Kevin. He’s a fully-grown hooded vulture and you’ll have the chance to fly him in one of our demonstrations. You’ll also get to chat to our keepers and enjoy a full guided tour of our Bird-of-Prey Centre.
Penguin experience
Meet our playful Humboldt penguins and get up close for some fishy fun! Step into their habitat and hand-feed these charming birds. Perfect for penguin fans aged 12 and up!
