New Friends of the Zoo membership benefit
Every
Wednesday from 10am to 11am, we're now offering you our Friends the
opportunity to come and enjoy an exclusive guided tour of
the Zoo.
Each week your Zoo guide will focus on a different area of the
Zoo to explore, and share with you all the latest happenings there.
As well as finding out so much more about our animals and
activities, these walks are a great way to meet other members.
Walks will be at a leisurely pace to cater to everyone -
from mums and dads with prams to those with other mobility
requirements.
We'll meet at Darwin's café at 10am every Wednesday. No prior
booking is required - just show up.
