Five-mile drive-through safari in Prescot with tigers, lions, giraffes, and a notorious baboon zone. Walk-around foot safari with sea lion shows, animal talks, and rides. Age 3 and above.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families with children aged 3 and above who want a high-impact safari drive and live animal shows in one visit. The Amur tiger enclosure - including visible cubs when in season - is a genuine highlight.

“Apart from my car been destroyed by the babooms we had a brilliant time. Lovely and quiet as it was the 2nd January but we saw everything and the rides were an added bonus. We watched the sea lion and bird of pray show and had a great time. Just waiting to see from Wilco how much my car is going to cost to be repaired after two babooms ripped my jet pipes off my wipers and brackets off my windscreen. Should have driven round the outside however we did have a laugh going through them. Also all the staff are super friendly and helpful. The guy at the end of the baboom enclosure had a good laugh at my car 😂”

“Lovely day despite the cold weather, the sea lion trainer is amazing, such a good show! We even got to see the baby tigers with mum, lots of animals out on the safari drive. All rides were open for the kids to enjoy and had a nice relaxing walk around the nature trail.”
