Sanctuary Tours
Step behind the scenes and experience the heart of our work firsthand. Our sanctuary tours offer an intimate look into the lives of our rescued residents. Led by our Senior Keeper, you’ll meet the animals and learn their stories. You’ll gain insight into the care and dedication that goes into providing a safe haven for these incredible animals, and sure to have a memorable experience.
Hear their stories
Join one of our knowledgeable and caring animal keepers for a personal tour of the sanctuary. You'll hear touching rescue stories about our residents and have the opportunity to ask as many questions as you'd like. The tours typically last around two and a half hours.
Go behind the scenes
You will also get the chance to enter some of the animal habitats, where you can interact and feed some of our friendly residents as you head around our 16-acre site.
Learn about our plans
Along the way, you will also get to hear about our aims for the sanctuary and future projects we want to complete to make the sanctuary bigger and better for our current residents, and any that will join us in the future.
