It is the first zoo in Egypt to adopt the drive-through safari concept rather than traditional cage-based exhibits.
The park grounds span a large desert expanse designed to accommodate roaming herds.
Visitors are permitted to drive their personal vehicles through the animal enclosures.
The facility is integrated with lodging, allowing guests to stay within the park boundaries.
The park route is designed to be completed entirely by car, creating a self-guided wildlife tour.
Africa Safari Park is Egypt's first open-range safari zoo, where animals roam freely in large enclosures while visitors travel through in their own vehicles. The park occupies a significant area along the Cairo-Alexandria Desert Road. It features a diverse collection of African wildlife, including lions, zebras, giraffes, and monkeys. The property includes a motel facility for overnight stays, allowing guests to remain within the park complex. Unlike traditional zoos, the drive-through model allows for closer proximity to animals from the safety of a car. The environment is designed to simulate natural habitats, focusing on a drive-based observation experience.
From the safety of your driver or passenger side window when animals approach the vehicle in the open-range sections.
Keep all vehicle windows rolled up and doors locked at all times while in the animal enclosures.
Do not feed the animals, as this can encourage aggressive behavior and is often prohibited for visitor safety.
Ensure your vehicle's air conditioning is functioning properly, as the desert heat can be intense during a slow-moving drive.
Feeding the animals through the car window and exiting the vehicle outside of designated safe zones.
Maintain a slow, steady speed; do not honk or distress the animals; remain inside your vehicle at all times.
