Lion Encounter

Lions are one of the only social cats and live in family groups called prides. Now you have the rare opportunity to book your up-close experience with these wonderful creatures.

Please join us for this amazing intimate experience where you will journey behind the scenes to meet some of the members of our incredible lion pride as well as the passionate keepers who care for them.

Experience how our keepers care for these stunning animals and manage the changing dynamics of our growing pride.

Each encounter will be different, allowing our Keepers to let the individual animals shine and give them the choice in how they participate. This means that although each experience may be unique, it will certainly be one you won’t forget. 

Your Lion Encounter helps Zoos Victoria fight extinction. 

Zoo entry not included. Be sure to also book your entry tickets for the same date as your encounter.

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!)
