Giraffe Feeding Experience
Get closer to our gentle giants and have the opportunity to hand feed our towering giraffes! Each experience caters for a smaller number of people per feed to give a more exclusive feel, whilst also supporting the Zoo’s Operating Fund!
N.B The £20.00 donation is per group not per person, up to 5 people may attend as 1 group.
A number of other groups may also be taking part in this experience at the same time.
Giraffe Feeding – 12.15pm, 2.15pm
After you have booked your day tickets you can book an Animal Feed Experience online. All Exclusive Animal Feeding Experiences must be pre-booked online at least 30 minutes in advance of your visit.
These experiences have limited capacity therefore we advise you to book as far in advance of your visit as possible to avoid disappointment.
Please note that an Exclusive Animal Feeding Experience does not admit you entry into the zoo. You MUST pre-book your day tickets prior to booking your Exclusive Animal Feeding Experience.
On arrival at the zoo please have your entry tickets ready and enter the park as early as possible within the allocated time slot for your arrival.
Please arrive at the meeting point by Kingdom of the Wild as detailed on your confirmation booking at least 10 minutes prior to the start time of your experience.
One of our Animal Care Team will then meet you at the specified time and check your tickets.
