Naser Al Mansoori, Senior Officer Safari, said, “This is one of the more rare experiences provided by zoos as it gives visitors the opportunity to see the animals’ life with all its authenticity and privacy as they make their way home after a long day of wandering around and enjoying their lives with the wildlife found throughout the African Safari.”

Visiting the rhinos and giraffes in this way is one of the most intriguing and enjoyable experiences you can have, because it gives the visitor an opportunity to get really acquainted with these animals, in addition to learning about the Zoo’s determination to protect them from extinction, employing the best international practices in this field.”

The tour lasts for around seventy minutes, during which the animals transition from the Safari area to their rest rooms takes place. Al Ain Zoo is using latest means of transportation, especially equipped for safari experiences, said Wam.
