Insider tips

Wear sturdy, closed-toe walking shoes as the park terrain is hilly and involves significant walking.

Prioritize the wildlife shows early in the day, as these have fixed schedules that may fill up quickly.

What to avoid

Do not attempt to visit in a single afternoon; the size and variety of attractions require a full-day commitment.

Good to know
