On the Malawi Beach with Hippos

Wear swimming costumes and get up close with friendly hippos. Meet Lisa, Ze Maria, and their cub Fillipo, housed in a large glass-walled tank. The pool for visitors slopes down into a model beach, Malawai, that mimics the shores of Lake Malawi with sun loungers and umbrellas. Perfect place to relax in the sun after swimming with hippos!

On Bolder Beach with Penguins

On Bolder Beach with Penguins

Visitors will find a reproduction of Boulders Beach in Cape Town, South Africa, one of the few places in the world where you can swim with penguins because not all of these cute feathers live in icy waters! You can see them swimming underwater through a large glass window and walking alongside them: there are 65 black-footed penguins in all.

In the Savannah of the Serengeti Park

In the Savannah of the Serengeti Park

At the zoo bio park, it is possible to climb onto a platform at giraffe height to really look them in the eye. Accompanied by a biologist, in small groups, you can also approach them from the ground to see how tall they are. In the zoo's Serengeti, there are also a couple of rhinoceroses, animals at risk of extinction due to indiscriminate hunting for the substances in their horn.

In an African Tented Camp
