Talks and tours at Calderglen
Here at Calderglen children’s zoo we offer
two different animal tours: An Animal
Encounter or a Feeding Tour.
Animal encounter: involves the group
getting to meet some animals such as snakes
and lizards up close. The animal keeper will
tell the group all about the animals. This type
of tour is best for young groups and groups
that are likely to become easily distracted.
The animal encounter takes place inside the
conservatory so weather would not affect it.
40 – 60 min.
Feeding tour: involves the group getting to
watch animals such as the coatis, meerkats,
caracara, guinea pigs and rabbits being fed.
The animal keeper feeding them will also tell
the group all about the animals. The feeding
tour takes place in the outside zoo area so
groups should wear weather appropriate
clothing. 30 – 40 min.
Costs
All talks and tours need to be booked in
advance and have a one off payment which
includes entry fees for all adults to the
Conservatory and Zoo.
Maximum group size for all talks and tours is
25, minimum group size is 10. Cost: £31.85
For further information
and booking availability
