"they will remember for the rest of their lives"

"We have had 3 kids do Safari Zoo Camp in two different years and they loved it. We stayed in the Safari Lodge B&B at the zoo both times and we loved it just as much I think. Both the camp and the lodge are unique experiences. The kids learn a lot and get to do a lot that they will remember for the rest of their lives. Caring for the animals, handling a variety of species including baby tigers or wolves, or presumably what is present at the time, etc. They also do some excellent off site activities like a caving outing, a waterpark, a zip-lining adventure day, etc depending on the year, the weather, age of kids, etc. It's a ton of fun. Walking through the zoo at night when things are active, waking to the lions roar, I could go on and on. We're hoping they decide to go back another summer or two because we enjoy staying there at the B&B so much as well and that gives us a good excuse. ... Show More

"No place like it"

"No other place like it, from the animal experiences to the people you meet. I've been there for 11 years as a camper, CIT, and staff, and there's no place else I'd rather be."

OUR KIDS review of Safari Zoo Camp

our take

Unique and memorable, a child’s time at Safari Zoo Camp won’t be forgotten. Kids with a deep love of animals will thrive at this camp, where they get opportunities to interact, learn about, and care for wild animals. In doing so, kids learn about protecting and conserving the environment as well. Campers and counselors all share a passion for the same thing—animals, so friendships are easy and lifelong. Located at the vast facilities of Jungle Cat World, where leopards, wolves, tigers, cougars, wild birds, and more call the zoo home, many kids attend this camp as a start to a career working with animals. There are activities outside of working with the animals that are exciting for all kids like treetop trekking, waterparks, and even caving. Many campers call the experience life changing and are ready to immediately go back as soon as the camp is over for the summer. The skills they learn at Safari Zoo Camp include leadership, confidence, and of course empathy.
