We had an excellent time at the Twilight tour. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, personable, and eager to tell us all about the amazing collection of animals at the park. Our tour went over the anticipated 90 minute by at least half an hour and we didn't even notice until it was over, because the guide was just as into it as anyone and never made anything feel rushed or timed. I would highly recommend this tour and hope to go again in the near future! Everyone in our group raved about what an excellent value it was for the price and how much fun they had.

Fantastic experience! Loads of volunteers to answer any questions we had about the animals. We went for their Easter activities and will definitely need to book a tour next time as I would love to learn more about each animal and what brought them there. We did learn about several of the animals stories, and it was great to hear that they are in better care now. My heart always goes out to the animals.

This was an awesome experience. You could see most of the animals very well, because several of them are nocturnal so they couldn’t coax them out. Highly recommend it. Be sure to check the weather and wear good walking shoes. You can use a stroller for little ones but they probably won’t be able to see them from the stroller, we had to pick my grandson out of it often and hold him up so he could see the animals. Overall will definitely do this again

This place is amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Our guide was very friendly and very knowledgeable. The way they got the male lion to semi roar was impressive.

Get a VERY personalized tour of the park (there were only about a dozen people in our group). Wendy, the volunteer tour guide, has been there 9 years and is very passionate, dedicated, and knowledgeable.

Visiting Animal Park at the Conversation Center is a once in a lifetime opportunity. The animals they home and rehabilitate are so well taken care of while educating the public is more than impressive. I will be visiting for the rest of my life.
