Gan Guru at night

Take a guided tour of the zoo and sleep outdoors

Have you ever wondered what Gan Guru looks like at night?

When camping in The Australian Zoo you will wake up to the sounds of nature.

During the summer The Australian Zoo invites you to come and have a night-time experience that is one of a kind. You will sleep in tents, receive a guided tour in the dark and another tour in the morning while the animals wake up.

This unique activity is open for only a few families at a time.

Sleeping in the Zoo

You will arrive at the zoo after 18:00 and set up your tent on the grass next to The Dinosaur Maze (and next to the bathrooms).

After setting up your tent you will be able to walk freely throughout the zoo and wander among all of the animal habitats.

Have you ever wondered what Gan Guru looks like at night?

Upon nightfall, we will begin a fascinating guided tour of the zoo. After leaving the tent camp we will meet all of the animals that sleep during the day and wake up at night. This will enable us to observe their unique nocturnal behavior, get to know their nighttime routines and learn how they cope with the dark. We will also be able to see where they go to sleep.

At the end of our tour, we will say “Goodnight” to all of the animals and you will return to the tent camp and enjoy some free time before going to sleep.

The night tour is about one hour long.

Waking Up in The Australian Zoo

While camping at Gan Guru you will discover the zoo while the sun rises and the animals wake up for a new day.

While hearing animal sounds in the background you will find a breakfast pack outside your tent and then be invited on a “Good Morning Gan Guru” tour. On the tour we will meet some of the animals we did meet at night. We will offer some of the animals their first bite to eat and we will observe their unique morning habits and behaviors.

The morning tour is about 40 minutes long.

The number of spots on this late night and early morning adventure – are limited!
