VIP Tours

PUBLIC VIP TOURS are exciting, fun, and educational, but we structure them to protect the health and safety of our animals and guests. Guidelines limit the number of people who may attend each tour and specify how old a child must be to be included in a tour. (Download COVID-19 Guidelines for VIP Program Participants.)

The price listed for each tour is the price per person.

Please keep in mind that tour admission prices are tax-deductible as a donation to the NC Zoo Society and that all donations are used to support the North Carolina Zoo's wildlife conservation programs. Tour prices do not cover Zoo admission fees.
