Key to the Zoo: Premium Insider Tours
Explore the Zoo like never before
Enhance your Zoo experience with a Premium Tour! These tours include their own exclusive offerings, including access to the Zoo while we are closed to the public, entering behind-the-scenes areas, private meet-and-greets with animals, or other unique experiences that you cannot get anywhere else. Throughout your tour, you will be personally guided by experience members of the Conservation Education staff. Each individual tour is uniquely built around the happenings of the Zoo that day.

Key To the Zoo: Behind The Scenes
In our most exclusive offering, you will spend three hours with a member of our Conservation Education team visiting several behind-the-scenes areas that are not typically available to the public. Each tour will be unique, but will include at least four experiences where you will get up and close and personal with our animals and get to learn about their individual personalities from the keepers who care for them. Your tour also includes a visit to the Solitude, a one-of-a-kind gift from our animals, parking, and regular Zoo admission for the day of your tour. On select dates, the tour will include a meet-and-greet with a few of our world-famous baby Galapagos tortoises. Please be sure to select those dates if you would like to meet them!
