💬 What Parents Say

• 💡Plan your visit to catch the safari bus at least 1 hour before closing time, as the last tour departs an hour prior to facility closure
• 💡Bring cash for animal feeding buckets ($5 for Zoo Chow or $4 for Roasted Peanuts) — feeding animals from the safari bus is the highlight experience, and the camels (especially 'Puff') are visitor favorites
• 💡The knowledgeable tour guides provide valuable animal information during the safari ride, so actively engage with them to enhance the educational experience for kids ages 6+
• 💡Pack a picnic lunch to enjoy at the on-site picnic tables — there are no food vendors at the facility, but free parking and beautiful scenery make this a great spot for a family meal break
• 🕐Visit during the opening weekend (April 4 & 5, 2026) or on weekday mornings to experience the safari ride with smaller tour groups and have more interactive time with animals
