Insider tips

Remove loose jewelry, watches, and shiny accessories before entering, as parrots may attempt to bite or pull them.

Follow staff instructions on how to properly extend your arm to encourage birds to land safely.

Wear clothing that you do not mind getting slightly dirty, as parrots may leave droppings while perched on visitors.

What to avoid

Avoid wearing hats, scarves, or dangling glasses, which curious birds may perceive as toys to be pulled or chewed.

Good to know

Check official social media channels for potential holiday closures or private event bookings.

Etiquette

Do not touch the birds unless guided by staff; do not feed them unauthorized snacks; keep voices low to avoid startling the animals.
