Wild Encounters
Tremendous Tour-toise
Tickets are per person. Ages 8+ only (Must be at least 15 years of age to attend experience alone).
During this experience one of our animal care staff members will introduce you to our resident Galapagos tortoises and fill you in on everything that goes into taking care of the largest species of tortoise in the world!
Guests will get a hands-on experience while they learn all about the history of these amazing animals, as well as the conservation efforts that the Zoo supports to help preserve their precious native islands.

(This experience is different than the public walkthroughs we offer during the summer. During this experience, you will get one-on-one time with a member from our Reptile Team that will tell you all about the tortoises. Guests will also have the opportunity to touch the tortoise’s legs and feet, and offer the tortoises food. These opportunities are not available during our public encounters.)

Hippo Barn Tour
Tickets are per person. Ages 7+ only.

Are you Fiona’s biggest fan? Have you ever wanted to know what it takes to be a full-time hippo keeper? Well, now you’re in luck! On the Hippo Barn Tour your group will get a semi-private tour of a world class hippo barn. Chat with a hippo expert as you learn all about, diets, enrichment, and Fiona’s incredible story. Grab some photos with Fiona’s baby bottle and early childhood toys. This tour promises to teach you something new about the world’s most famous hippo.
This experience supports the animals in our care, and also supports VulPro and the Uganda Waterways Project. VulPro supports the rescue, rehabilitation, and release of ill and injured vultures. The Uganda Waterways Project supports the patrols of rivers to prevent poaching of hippos and other African wildlife.
This tour does not include the painting or private feeding included in our Hangin' with the Hippos package.
