Safari experience viewing animals up close by private car or bus-type vehicle

About this spot

A vast safari zone where you can observe numerous animals including lions, elephants, and giraffes up close while riding in your own vehicle or a special bus-type vehicle. The impact of seeing vibrant animals right before your eyes, rather than through fences, captivates both adults and children. The park simply follows a set course, making it safe and enjoyable for families with small children. In midsummer, vehicles are air-conditioned, providing comfort despite the extreme daytime heat.
