Becoming a zookeeper for a day
Stroke the giraffe, wash the elephant, shake hands with the lemurs or feed the carnivores. Becoming one of the staff for a day will be a real eye-opener and bring you a great insight into the workings of the zoo. Seeing and experiencing the lives of our wild animals from up close is something you will never forget. Being a zookeeper may have been a childhood dream for a friend or relative - now make their dreams come true.
Becoming a zookeeper for a day
Off-road safari
Imagine just you and a guide alone amongst herds of animals, enjoying a trip in an off-road safari vehicle and a genuine African meal on your return. Experience an early evening in the midst of creatures on the Serengeti grassland. Get within arm's reach of a zebra. There is the additional bonus of getting a DVD on the zoo as a special gift.
Evening safari
Take in the spectacle of an African twilight. Soak up the atmosphere of an early evening on a safari bus surrounded by herds of wild animals. Watch the rhinos, zebras, giraffes, and antelopes at sundown. Meet the lions and cheetahs lurking in the gathering dusk. Get ready for something that cannot be matched anywhere else in Europe. When darkness falls on a warm evening, it is the closest you can get to being in Africa without leaving the Czech Republic!
Get a behind-the-scenes tour
You can get closer to the wildlife than you ever thought before, meeting animals eye-to-eye, as well as getting to feed the elephants, smell the giraffes and learning trade secrets about the sea aquarium.
