Woburn Safari Park

About

Woburn Safari Park offers an escape to the wild plains, jungles and savannahs of Africa without leaving the country! Teeming with amazing wildlife, Woburn Safari Park takes you a windscreen's width away from rhinos, elephants, lions, bears, tigers, zebra and giraffe.

Head off on an adventure on the Road Safari upon arrival to spot endangered and exotic animals, including beautiful tigers, lions, rhino, giraffes, monkeys and many more. Keep your eyes peeled for the playful ankole calf, the adorable baby Barbary macaque monkeys and the new flock of ostrich along the way.

Then make your way to the Foot Safari where you can enjoy a full programme of daily keeper talks and to Elephant Meadow, the only place in the UK where you might get close enough to touch these magnificent creatures! While you’re there, see if you can spot the capybara pups, the penguin chicks that have just recently left their nest for the first time and head to the Australian Walkabout to see the baby wallaby joeys jumping in and out of their mother’s pouches.

Bringing along your own monkeys? Besides seeing the animals, there are plenty of fun activities, both indoor and outdoor, that can be enjoyed in the Leisure Area as part of your ticket price.

Hop onto the Great Woburn Railway and stop off at the latest animal attraction, Alpaca Outpost, to meet and feed the friendly herd of alpacas, including the two alpaca babies, Taco and Tarquin!

Afterwards, burn off some steam in the new adventure playground, Jungle Jamboree, equipped with an array of obstacles, musical instruments and animal themed climbing activities. Alternatively, the Mammoth Play Ark is one of Bedfordshire's biggest soft play centres, where kids can let off steam with slides, cargo nets, bridges and obstacles, plus it can be booked for special birthday parties, with loads of optional extras. Once you’re ready to relax, enjoy a leisurely paddle on Swan Lake in the new Dragon Boats, which have joined the Swan Boats for the first time!
