Due to the situation with COVID-19 we have taken the decision to suspend all sales and bookings of Animal Experiences at this time. If you have a current booking, you will be contacted if it needs to be postponed.  Please keep checking back as we will open sales again once we have capacity to take new bookings, this will be later in the year.

For anyone with a currently unbooked voucher, we will be looking to extend your expiry date once we are accepting bookings again. Further information will be emailed to you when you are able to book again. Thank you for your understanding.

Join our expert elephant keepers behind the scenes at Project Elephant Base Camp and witness first-hand how well trained the herd are. You’ll have the opportunity to find out what an elephant’s skin really feels like before hand-feeding one of the girls a tasty snack.

There will be a maximum of 6 people taking part at any one time. All activities are done through a protective barrier and you will not be in the same enclosed area as the elephant at any time during the experience.

Each experience lasts for about half an hour and you will be free to enjoy the zoo for the remainder of the day. This experience includes admission into the zoo and you’ll also get a complimentary car park pass and certificate.
