Did you know?
The Night Safari is the first ever nighttime wildlife park in the world! While the world winds down, the animals at the Night Safari start their day.
The Night Safari is home to close to 1,000 different species of nocturnal animals from around the world.
Being a nighttime adventure, the safari does not allow flash photography inside the park. Instead, you can get a free guide on night photography from the website and carry your cameras for some stunning after dark pictures.
There are four major zones at the Night Safari that are referred to as trails. They house different animals and ecosystems within them and are a great way to see how endangered species from around the world coexist with one another.
