Back to Animal Encounters

Meet our gorillas in this amazing close-up encounter.

Journey behind the scenes with expert keepers into the night dens of these critically endangered animals, one of our closest living relatives!

Each experience is unique - your encounter could include feeding, an enrichment activity or a training session, as well as a chat about behaviour and conservation.

This experience is currently operating with a COVIDSafe plan in place, if you’ve done this experience before, it may be a little different this time around (but no less fun!)
