Animals and experiences
Meet them all on a day out — or book an experience and step right into their world.
Every experience funds the animals’ care.

Book an experience
Get closer than a day ticket ever allows — hands-on mornings with the keepers, one-to-one animal encounters, and visits built for schools. Every booking is an act of support: the money goes straight to the animals’ care.
Keeper, animal and Scottish experience prices are our own standard rates, shown below — educational visits are priced when you get in touch.
Booking is handled by the zoo’s existing system (Auchingarrich Wildlife Park), with payment taken by Square. Perthshire Zoo Ltd is a Scottish charity, SC053939.
Spend four hours working alongside our keepers — from feeding the animals to mucking them out and giving them a groom. The real job, the real routines, the real animals.
Hand-feed the animals, learn about their diets, and get closer than you thought possible. Only you enter the enclosure — your family watches and photographs from just outside.

Book an experience — support our work
Every experience is priced to fund what it celebrates: expert care, better habitats, and the conservation work that keeps these species with us.
