Safari Drive-Thru

Drive your own vehicle through our animal reserves on the ultimate safari adventure.

You’ll come face-to-face with wild and exotic animals from across the world, including lions, camels, antelope, rhinos, Barbary macaques and a pride of lions. And don’t forget the cheeky monkeys in our famous macaque drive-thru!

You can also explore a large section of the Safari Park on foot. 

We have spectacular raised viewing platforms for our giraffes, lions and tigers and you can take a look inside the rhino house, elephant house and giraffe house.   You can come face-to-face with our free-roaming lemurs in  Lemur Land and pop in to see the friendly alpacas, sheep and horses in Pets Farm.

We are constantly monitoring the Covid situation and some areas of the Safari Park may be closed.  You'll find the latest information here.

Dinosaurs

Behind huge Jurassic Park-style gates lies a pre-historic forest for you to explore. But watch out! It’s home to over twenty moving, stomping, screeching, life-size dinosaurs. ROARsome!

Now with a safe one-way system in place, welcome to “one of the UK’s best dinosaur experiences”!
