Tips for Visiting Noah's Ark Zoo Farm #

  • Arrive right when the gates open to see feeding sessions and animal talks before school groups and coach tours build up later in the day.
  • Book admission and any close-animal experiences online in advance-special encounters and timed activities often sell out on weekends and school holidays.
  • On arrival, pick up the day's schedule from the reception/box office so you can plan to catch keeper talks and targeted feeding times, which give better viewing opportunities than wandering randomly.
