Behind the Scene Tour
Behind-the-Scenes Tours

Join a naturalist on a tour of the Tropics Trail, the Northern Trail or Russia’s Grizzly Coast. The tour will provide insight into animal behavior, animal management and conservation. One hour will be spent on the public walkway and a half an hour will be spent behind the scenes looking at the kitchens where diets are prepared or in the holding areas where the animals are kept at night. A staff keeper will answer questions and talk about animal care. Available throughout the year.
Tours must be scheduled a minimum of two weeks in advance.

Fees: $9 per person, $90 per group minimum plus applicable admission. Available for groups up to 20 participants (tour appropriate for grades four and up). Call 952.431.9218 for more information.
