Tour Details - Private Chimpanzee and Lion
Tour Time and Meeting Place: 3 p.m. (2 p.m. November 15-March 15). Guests meet in the lower viewing area at the Chimpanzee habitat in the African section of the Zoo.
Minimum Age Requirements: 12 years old - Children younger than 18 must be accompanied by a paying adult.
Tour Overview: This tour usually lasts about 1 hour. During the tour, guests go behind the Chimp’s outdoor habitat to an elevated platform that offers viewing and photography opportunities unavailable to the general public. Next, guests circle to the back of the Chimp and Lion night quarters to watch zookeepers conduct a training session with either the chimps or lions. Guests learn how keepers enrich and care for both species.
ADA Status Restrictions: This tour is NOT ADA accessible, but we can accommodate guests with mobility issues on a private tour. Please alert us to mobility needs when filling out the order form.
Current Health Requirements: Guests must wear masks to go inside the barn. Masks are not required for guests while they remain outdoors. However, the Zoo may need to implement some health measures (e.g., requiring guests to wear gloves) if new or more serious medical hazards emerge to threaten the well-being of our animals, guests, or staff.
