Give the gift of memories with Animal Experiences at Blair Drummond Safari Park

Ditch the latest trinkets, toys, and tech and give the most treasured gift of all this Christmas.

Blair Drummond Safari Park’s Animal Experiences provide an unforgettable opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the park’s rare and exotic animals, all whilst creating memories that are sure to last a lifetime!

This year Blair Drummond have launched their brand new Meerkat and Giraffe Family Experiences. For the first time ever, children aged 8 and over will gain access to our most exclusive behind-the-scenes areas and handfeed some of our most popular animals, alongside their family members. Family experiences will be exclusively hosted for your family, with tiered pricing reflective of your group size.

The Junior Keeper experience gives budding keepers the chance to spend time with the animals in Pets Farm, including llamas, penguins, meerkats, and ponies. They’ll also receive a fun goody bag afterwards!

For the grown-ups, individual Animal Experiences start at £60 for the Meerkat Experience which gives guests the chance to hang out with the park’s most inquisitive creatures.

Guests can get up close to the world’s most iconic mammals as part of Blair Drummond’s Large Mammal Experience. Roll up your sleeves and get ready to spend an hour with their elephant, rhinos and giraffes.

You’ll get to prepare their enrichment, handfeed them, and learn about the incredible work the team at Blair Drummond are doing to protect these fabulous animals from extinction.

For those who’d love nothing more than an exclusive behind the scenes look at what it is like to be a keeper at Blair Drummond, the Keeper for a Day experiences are where it’s at.

For £250, keepers for the day get the chance to handfeed the lemurs, take a VIP tour of Chimp Island and the reserves, give the lions their wake-up call, and spend the day meeting giraffes, elephants, rhinos, and birds of prey.

So, look out your wellies, and create wild memories this Christmas at Blair Drummond Safari Park!

Head of Marketing, Liz Gunn of Blair Drummond Safari Park said: “Our Animal Experiences offer a unique opportunity to get closer than ever to our incredible animals, and to meet the experts that provide outstanding specialist care here every day.

“Whether you’re treating yourself or a loved one to an extremely special gift, you can enjoy the experience even more in the knowledge that you’re supporting vital conservation work right here at Blair Drummond, all while creating memories you’ll never forget.”
