There are fantastic Animal Shows throughout the year and my personal favourite is always the interactions and photos sessions after the shows. There are 2 shows per day i.e. 11.00a.m. and 3.00p.m. (Daily) and 11.a.m. and 3.30p.m. (Friday) (subject to change).

It is very important for visitors to study the map in advance and it is advisable to always fix a 'meet up point' in the event any of the members is loss.
