Good to Know
Visitor FAQ
Answers to the questions guests ask most often before visiting.
Are dogs allowed inside the park?
For the safety of our animals, only trained assistance dogs are permitted inside the exhibit areas. There's a shaded kennel by the main gate for small pets.
Is the park accessible for wheelchairs and strollers?
Absolutely. All main trails are paved and wheelchair-friendly, and we offer free wheelchair and stroller rentals at the welcome center.
Can I buy tickets on the day?
Yes, at the gate — but online tickets are cheaper and guarantee entry on busy days. We recommend booking ahead for weekends.
What happens in bad weather?
Zoofari is open rain or shine — many animals are more active in the cool weather! The Rainforest Loop and Nocturnal House are fully covered.
Do you offer group and school discounts?
Yes — groups of 15+ save 20%, and school visits include free educator resources. Contact our bookings team for a tailored quote.
