Meet some of South and Central America’s most spectacular species in our NEW Latin American Experience, perfect for two people.

Hang out with our two toed sloths Tina and Rico, deliver lunch to our ‘giant Guinea pigs’ the capybara and provide enrichment for our giant anteaters.

You’ll get exciting updates from our teams in the field who are working to conserve these species in the wild giving you the opportunity to get closer to conservation than ever before.

*All our animals, including sloths are free to move around their habitats as and when they like. Although we try to time our visit when they’re most likely to be visible, there’s no guarantee of seeing them up close and there will be no close contact with the sloths.*

This Experience is for 2 people. Suitable for ages 16+

If you have any questions about this experience please email us or call us on 01244 380280.
