Guided Tours (July and August)

Get to know the animals here at Riverview Park and Zoo and "Zoo like a Pro"!

Bookings are only available during July and August with 11:00 a.m., 11:30 a.m., or 12:00 p.m. start times to choose from. This includes 4-hour use of our Rotary Education Centre -- the perfect meeting place for before or after your guided tour, and great for getting in out of the heat or keeping everyone dry if it should rain.

The guided tour runs from 12:30 - 2:30 p.m. It includes a 1-hour interpretative walk through the grounds with qualified staff and volunteers, as well as interactive items and an animal feeding or enrichment encounter led by RPZ staff.

Cost is $500 to a maximum of 25 participants. 

Payment can be made at Guest Services on the day of your tour, however an additional $50 advance deposit is required to secure your spot. This deposit is refunded upon inspection that the Education Centre has been returned to its original condition after your stay.
