Everything you need to know about the Tree Kangaroo Experience

Step inside our Goodfellow’s tree kangaroo habitat and discover one of the zoo’s most unique species from an entirely new perspective. On this exclusive experience, you’ll get the rare opportunity to observe Kitawa and her joey up close.

You'll be met at the zoo by your own dedicated Experiences Host, who will take you over to Islands to join the tree kangaroos at lunchtime as they snack on some tasty branches. One of our expert keepers will be there to tell you about how these arboreal marsupials are specially adapted for life in the rainforest canopy of Papua New Guinea. You'll gain insights into their behaviour, diet and the conservation challenges facing tree kangaroos in the wild.

By purchasing this experience, you're not just creating lasting memories - you're also supporting vital conservation efforts for animals like the Goodfellow's tree kangaroo, both here at the zoo and globally.  

  • £125 per person
