AAA is a loosely associated group of clubs that each cover a small geographical area, usually a single state or portion of a state. Different clubs have different offers, so it’s worth checking both your own AAA state club and the Southern California AAA club websites. To check your own state club, just go to AAA.com and you will be redirected (usually) to your local club. If you haven’t yet set up your online access, you’ll sometimes need to do that to see your local club’s discounts.

To check the Southern California site, use this link and enter zip code 92112. Once you get to the club home page, select the “Discounts & Rewards” tab and then select “Theme parks & attractions.” If a particular discount on the Southern California site involves booking online through the club site, you will usually need to be a Southern California member. Discounts that involve showing your card at the gate are available to any AAA member. If you can get to a Southern California AAA club office, you can usually take advantage of offers that must be bought in person, even if you’re a member of a different AAA club.

AAA members get 10% off a 1-Day Pass, and sometimes discounts on other things such as food or merchandise.

Costco.com sometimes offers a very good discount on San Diego Zoo tickets and you don’t have to be a Costco member to buy through their site. (Non-members pay a 5% surcharge, however.) There is a shipping charge when ordering from Costco.com.

Safaris at San Diego Zoo Safari Park – prices, duration, timings

The San Diego Zoo Safari Park is a 1,800-acre wild animal enclosure in the San Pasqual Valley area of San Diego, California, near Escondido.

More than two million locals and tourists visit San Diego Safari Park annually to get closer to wildlife and have animal encounters.

At this Safari Park, visitors can choose from different safaris, each better than the other.

This article shares everything you must know about the different kinds of safaris at the San Diego wildlife attraction.

The Safari Park is known for its vast, open-air exhibits that aim to replicate the animals’ natural habitats.

The expansive enclosures give the animals ample space to roam and engage in more natural behaviors.

The park is home to a diverse collection of animals, focusing on species from Africa and Asia.

You can see herds of elephants, giraffes, rhinos, zebras, antelopes, and various bird species.

The park is dedicated to wildlife conservation, and you can expect to see educational displays and signage emphasizing the importance of protecting endangered species and their habitats.

There are shows and demonstrations featuring various animals throughout the day.

These presentations provide educational insights into different species’ behaviors, adaptations, and characteristics.

The park offers some interactive exhibits where visitors can get hands-on experiences or learn more about specific animal behavior and conservation aspects.

Tickets for San Diego Zoo Safari Park are available online or at the attraction box office.

Online ticket prices tend to be cheaper than tickets at the venue.

When you buy online, you can avoid the long queues at the attraction’s ticket counters.

Because the attraction sells a limited number of tickets, they may sell out during peak days. Booking early helps avoid last-minute disappointments.

Once you purchase San Diego Zoo Safari Park tickets , they get delivered to your email address.

There is no need to get printouts of the ticket.

On the day of your visit, proceed directly to the turnstiles; you do not have to stand in line at the ticket booth. Show the e-ticket on your smartphone and enter the park.

The African Tram Safari is free with the regular San Diego Safari Park ticket .

The 30-minute guided tour happens in an open-air tram so that the visitors can connect with the San Diego Safari Park’s animals on a closer level.

African Tram Safari at San Diego Safari Park

The tram takes a 4 km (2.5 miles) long route through San Diego Zoo Safari Park’s field habitats, and you get to see herds of giraffes, flocks of exotic birds, crashes of rhinos, etc.

African Tram Safaris start from the African Outpost at 10 am and continue 45 minutes before the park closes.

The best time to line up for the African Tram Safaris is before 11 am or after 3 pm because there is no crowd.

If you reach the African Outpost between 11 am and 3 pm, you may have to wait a while to board the tram.

Besides the Africa Tram, the San Diego Safari Park admission tickets include Cheetah Run, tours and attractions, shows, animal encounters & kids playgrounds.

The only experiences NOT included in the regular ticket are the paid safaris .

A visit to San Diego Safari Park is a costly undertaking.

The Safari Park admission costs US$69 for all visitors 12 years and above and $59 for three to 11-year-old visitors.

This is why many visitors wonder if the free Africa Tram Safari included in the ticket is enough.

They also want to know if it makes sense to book one of the paid safaris.

We think the paid safari tours are nice to have.

If money isn’t an issue, and you have time, go for them.

Else, you won’t miss much by just purchasing the regular San Diego Safari ticket and going on the free safari.

Wildlife lovers opt for the 2-day San Diego Zoo + San Diego Safari Park combo , which allows them to visit both wildlife attractions one after the other. Or if they prefer, they can visit one attraction twice.

Paid Safaris at San Diego Safari Park

San Diego Zoo Safari Park offers 11 safaris, for which visitors must pay extra.

These are over and above the numerous wildlife experiences that come with the regular Safari Park ticket .

You can book these safaris once you reach the Safari Park or call 619-718-3000 in advance.

Even if you book an extra safari, you must purchase a regular entry ticket to the park.

We explain all the different San Diego Safari Park tours so that you can decide for yourself.

San Diego Safari Park Discount Tickets Comparison Chart

Is it better to buy san diego safari park tickets at the gate or online.

Buying Safari Park tickets online is cheaper, faster, and safer. Safari Park encourages you to purchase your Safari Park tickets online and in advance. But it is not required.

Buying your passes on the internet costs less. If you purchase in advance through the San Diego Zoo Global website you’ll save $2. Get my promo code from local aRes Travel to save 10% off the $71 gate price.

Buying online reserves a spot for you and your group. This is especially important on busy weekends and holidays. You don’t want to drive 30 miles to Escondido from downtown San Diego only to be turned away because they’ve reached their guest headcount limit for the day.

You’ll also avoid the sales ticket window lines if you buy online. With a mobile ticket, you’ll go straight to the gate. Wouldn’t you rather get right to seeing exotic animals rather than being one of the herd waiting in line for a ticket?

NOTE: San Diego Zoo Global charges a $1 convenience fee for online purchases.

Online Ticket Discounts are Becoming Harder to Find

Due to increasing costs due to economic inflation, San Diego Safari Park has asked websites to stop publishing some of our best discounts. You can understand their position. They’re a non-profit and feeding the animals has got to come first. You’re not the only one hurting from the high price of energy and groceries.

Fortunately, my favorite authorized ticket source, aRes, has gone the extra mile for SanDiegoing readers and carved out the best possible deal for you under the circumstances. Click on the koala below for details.

Also, visit my page on the best places to eat at Safari Park . In addition to details on all their restaurants, I’ve included tips on how to save a few bucks while eating well there.

When Are San Diego Zoo Safari Park Free Admission Days?

The best-discounted deal at San Diego Zoo is free entry, right? Here’s the scat on all of the free days at San Diego Zoo.

How Kids Free in October at the Safari Park Works

Kids get San Diego Zoo Safari Park tickets free in October. Children under the age of 12 can get in free. There are some limits:

They must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
Only 5 children are permitted per adult.

Your cheapest option is to buy a discounted adult ticket that allows you to bring in children for free.

Unfortunately your Southern California CityPASS , and Go San Diego passes are not eligible for special events like this. AAA discounts won’t work either because they cannot be combined with any other discount offers.

You’re going to have to purchase a separate adult ticket. But you don’t have to pay full price. Click HERE for a discount code that will work on adult tickets during Kids Free in October.

Discover more kid fun for less! Check out my page where I uncover all the discount ticket deals at Sesame Place San Diego for you.

Seniors Get in Free During February at San Diego Safari Park

1-Day Passes are free for everyone over 65 all of February. This deal is only available at the entrance. Present a valid photo ID with a birthdate showing that you’re over 65 at a Safari Park ticket window. Only one ticket per senior. You still have to pay for parking.

Which San Diego Zoo Annual Membership Is the Cheapest?

San Diego Zoo Annual Memberships include unlimited Safari Park entrance privileges. If you love animals and walking in beautiful surroundings this is one of the best ways to get cheap tickets for the San Diego Safari Park. You can save up to 99.6% off the standard 1-Day Pass price if you visit the zoo daily for a year with the Resident Adult Premium membership. The cost is 29 cents per daily visit. But what if you don’t want to come every day?

If you want to visit often on weekends, buy the San Diego Resident Premium Adult membership ($109). If you plan to see the animals during the week, purchase the San Diego Resident Adult Membership ($95). This membership level has all weekends and major holidays blacked out, that’s 123 days. Yes, I counted them all on their blackout date calendar. You can find the current year’s blackout dates calendar in the membership sections HERE .

You’ll find a chart with the least expensive San Diego Zoo membership options and their restrictions below:

Annual adult membership plans cost from $99 to $10,000 per year. Here’s the San Diego Zoo annual membership page so that you can check them all out for yourself.

Bob and I are Wildlife Protector Premium members. At this level, we get free parking and unlimited entries to both the Safari Park and the San Diego Zoo. We usually visit Safari Park on Saturdays. Our favorites are Tiger Trail , Elephant Valley, Africa Tram, and eating lunch while watching herds of antelope and rhinos from a bench above Kijamii Overlook. If it’s a special occasion, we’ll dine at The Watering Hole restaurant.

Free Guest Admission coupons are one of the major perks of most San Diego Zoo annual memberships. Each of these printed tickets is like a 1-Day Pass – good for a one-time visit for one person. Guests can use these without a member being present.

How to Get and Use Free Guest Passes for Safari Park

You can visit San Diego Safari Park for free if you’ve got Complimentary Guest Passes. But the only way to get them is if you know a member who is willing to give them to you.

You do NOT have to be with a member to enter the park using a San Diego Zoo Guest Pass.

Longtime members are more likely to have unused Guest Passes. Chances are that they’ve taken their visiting family and friends to the zoo and Safari Park many times. Members love sharing their passion for animals and they feel bad about letting their passes expire without being used. So asking them doesn’t cost you anything and may make them feel better.

Buying Guest Passes online is risky . San Diego Zoo Global says that the resale of guest coupons is fraud and a violation of the seller’s annual membership agreement. They’re just printed tickets with a barcode. Anyone with a scanner and a printer can fake them. And you will not know that you’ve paid for a fake until you try to present it at the gate. You may be turned away because the scanner says that code has been used.

How to Get 50% Off Discount Admission Coupons for Safari Park

This half-off San Diego Zoo Safari Park admission deal is legit. But they are also only available from someone who has an annual membership.

But these discounted tickets are MUCH easier to find than the free Guest Passes. Most of the annual membership options include 2 of these per year. Once again, ask the zoo members in your network if they have any unused coupons.

And just like the Guest Passes, buying these discount admission coupons online is not recommended.

Are Safari Park Shoppers Passes Worth It?

A Safari Park Shoppers’ Pass is another free way to enter the park. Actually, it’s a 1-Day Pass that will be refunded if you meet certain conditions. Those conditions are:

You’ve purchased a 1-Day Pass at the standard rate
You’ve returned to the ticket sales window at the entrance within 45 minutes

Start back to the gate when you’ve shopped for 35 minutes because there may be people waiting in line at the ticket booth.

Are There Group Discounts at San Diego Zoo Safari Park?

You get 10% Off 1-Day Passes for groups of 15 or more paying visitors at Safari Park San Diego. This is a wonderful way for large families to get together while maintaining social distancing. Of course it’s also ideal for businesses and social group outings.

15% off the 1-Day Pass for groups of 100 or more. Call 619-718-3000 (Reservation Sales Department) well in advance of your trip. They will make sure that your group numbers will be counted in that day’s total. Also, they have meal vouchers for many of the eateries inside Safari Park for an extra fee. This can save your group members some money off of buying entrees à la carte.

What is the San Diego Zoo Tickets Senior Discount?

You can get 15% off a 1-Day Pass for guests over 65 at the gate . You must present a valid photo ID at a zoo ticket sales window to get this discount. They do not offer this deal online or by phone.

Save More Than 10% With Authorized Ticket Seller Deals

San Diego Zoo Global (SDZG) works with a limited group of vendors who have the right to legally sell Safari Park tickets. They are tied into the Safari Park reservation system. They have to maintain strict standards of customer service and abide by the rules set by SDGZ.

These rules include maintaining their agreed-upon ticket parity so that the non-profit zoological organization can maintain its funding for conservation projects.

SanDiegoing Ticket Deals From aRes Travel

aRes Travel and San Diego Zoo Global have been partners since 1993. The Zoo and Safari Park online reservation system was developed and is being maintained and updated by aRes. All of the other authorized ticket sellers use that system to sell tickets according to SDZG’s standards.

Here’s why I recommend aRes:

Many thousands of San Diego visitors have saved money with their worry-free discounted Safari Park passes and tickets
100% authentic tickets Guaranteed. All passes come directly from the Safari Park, Zoo, and other attractions like SeaWorld San Diego, LEGOLAND, Disneyland, and many attractions in southern California
They’re always cheaper than Safari Park gate prices (call for their unpublished rates at 800-719-8961 .)
Fast, automated delivery via email to your inbox
Never wait in line at a ticket sales booth. Go straight to the gate entry turnstiles.
Save up to 30% on tickets/lodging for multiple theme parks and 100’s of hotels
They’re a local San Diego company . They’ve got longtime relationships with hotel managers, attraction companies, and tour groups so they can put together great deals for us
Their CEO is a nice guy . I dropped by their office one day and he spent at least 40 minutes answering my questions. At the time, no one was reading my blog but me, my husband, and sometimes my Mom. It was a gracious gesture.

One thing to note is that aRes charges a $2 online convenience fee ($1 + the SDZG’s $1 online fee) for Safari Park tickets. But that doesn’t bother me too much. Because… you can actually TALK to them if you need help by calling 800-719-8961 . How rare is that? Google them to check out their great online reviews.

This deal is perfect for a short staycation for locals or a quick getaway for those traveling from Los Angeles or Orange counties. Choosing a hotel may be a difficult choice though, there’s over 110 to choose from. My advice is stay close to where you’d like to spend your evenings.

Or call 800-719-8961 and let them help you create a memorable weekend.

Costco San Diego Safari Park Tickets

If you search the internet you’ll see many references to super-cheap San Diego Zoo and Safari Park tickets sold at Costco. There’s just one problem, all of those posts are old and the offers are expired.

I spent hours scouring online forums, coupon code sites and large travel websites and the most recent example of a Costco zoo ticket deal is from 2010. And in that comment thread they didn’t even give the price for the 1-Day Pass.

I suspect that the killer Safari Park Costco deals will not be coming back. In the last couple of years San Diego Zoo Global, the Safari Park’s parent organization, has instituted a policy of price parity among authorized ticket sellers. SDZG doesn’t want other companies significantly undercutting their own gate prices.

They’re not just being greedy. It’s for a good cause. Their mission is to end extinction and promote conservation awareness worldwide. And they aren’t subsidized or run by their local city like many other zoos. The San Diego Zoo and Safari Park are mostly self-funded through ticket sales to people like you.

Go ahead and check Costco’s Ticket Savings page to see if they’ve got Safari Park passes. But if you don’t find any, don’t be surprised.

Costco San Diego Zoo Safari Park Ticket Bundles – There’s still a PDF for the Go San Diego Card discounts on the Costco website, but it’s an orphan. The Go San Diego Card is not on their ticket page, just links to a few restaurants. If you want to buy the Go San Diego Card click the link to go to aRes, our local San Diego authorized ticket source.

San Diego Zoo Safari Park Tickets On Groupon

Up to 70% off a 1-Day Adult Pass – This is misleading clickbait. Groupon’s last significant discount offer was in September 2020. If you go to their website you’ll get the standard 3% off deal that you’d get directly from Safari Park. Granted, 3% off is technically “up to 70% off”, but the wording is sneaky.

To get a better deal anytime, anywhere, buy your tickets from my travel partner aRes Travel of San Diego. Use this Safari Park Discount Ticket Form to get a discount code and the link where you can use it to buy your cheap tickets. Or, call 800-719-8961 and ask aRes for the unpublished San Diego Safari Park discount instead.

San Diego Safari Park AAA Discount

10% off a 1-Day Pass – You can only get this deal at the gate and if you’re a AAA member. It’s good for you and 5 more in your group.

Present your AAA membership card and a valid ID at the ticket sales booth and purchase a 1-Day Pass for your ten percent discount. You cannot get this offer online or if you buy your ticket on the phone.

You can’t combine a AAA discount with any other coupons or offers. So you can’t use it during Kids Free in October or the Seniors Free in February events. But you CAN call 800-719-8961 ahead of time. Save yourself a bit of cash. Load the ticket onto your mobile device (or print it). Skip the ticket window line!

Firefighters Free in September at Safari Park

Active US firefighters with a valid ID can get a free 1-Day Pass for the San Diego Safari Park during September “Firefighters Appreciation Month” . Safari Park is located in the rural San Pasqual Valley and has sometimes been threatened by wildfires. So everyone who loves the animals here is VERY appreciative of the firefighters efforts to keep it safe.

To get free entry under this program you must present your active firefighter ID with a photo. It doesn’t matter if it’s a department ID or a Union ID. This complimentary ticket is not available by phone or online.

Firefighters’ Family Discount

10% off 1-Day Passes for Family & Friends of Firefighters.

During September, San Diego Safari Park offers 10% off each admission for up to 6 people accompanying an active duty US firefighter who has a valid department or union photo ID.

Do AZA Members Get a Discount at San Diego Safari Park?

There is no American Zoological Association (AZA) member discount at Safari Park . San Diego Zoo Global is a member of AZA, but unlike most zoos in the United States, it is self-funding and cannot afford to offer reciprocal AZA benefits and fulfill their primary mission which is to end extinction.

San Diego Zoo and Safari Park are both self-funded by your entry fees, food and concession sales, and extra add-on experiences like tour safaris. Most of the zoos in the AZA discount ticket program receive the majority of their budget from municipal coffers.

Travel Industry

Airline and cruise lines employee discounts.

10% off 1-Day Pass at San Diego Safari Park. Airline and cruise company employees and one guest are eligible for ten percent off one day admission. This deal is not available if you pay online or by phone. You must present your company-issued photo ID or CLIA card before paying at the zoo ticket window.

San Diego Safari Park Travel Agent Discounts

10% off 1 Day Pass to the Safari Park. If you’re a member of IATAN (International Airlines Travel Agent Network), you and a guest are eligible for a ten percent discount at the gate. If you’re a tour operator, travel agent, or wholesaler you can get this deal. All you need to do is show your up-to-date ITAN card prior to paying at any Zoo ticket window.

Deals for Educators and Students

San diego safari park teacher discount.

15% off a 1-Day Pass to Safari Park in San Diego for teachers directing curriculum-focused student trips. For more details, check the Zoo’s education and field trips page. The CTA Member Benefits website is a good resource for discounts and offers that teachers can use on personal trips to San Diego Safari Park.

San Diego Safari Park Student Discount

15% off 1 Adult 1-Day Pass to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park is the standard deal for students . All students 12 years of age and older are eligible. You must present your valid student ID before payment at any ticket sales booth to get this deal.

This offer is good for high school, community college, and university students as well as those working towards graduate degrees.

Is There a Diego Safari Park Residents’ Discount?

There aren’t any discounts for locals on 1-Day Passes for San Diego Safari Park. The best way for residents to save on Safari Park tickets is to buy an annual membership . These memberships offer significant savings for California residents in the 91900-92899 zip codes. The lowest tier costs $115 for a single adult. That means that your Safari Park and Zoo entries are free after just 2 visits.

How to Avoid Safari Park Online Ticket Scams

Cartoon of hacker at desk selling fake San Diego Safari Park tickets

1) If the price for San Diego Safari Park tickets sounds too good to be true, you’re probably right. That’s the first rule to avoid being the victim of any online swindle. Pay attention to your little voice which says, “So what’s in it for them?” Sometimes it’s not just money, but your identity that’s at stake.

2) The Craigslist About Scams page says that most online fraud can be avoided if you insist on meeting face-to-face with the person selling the tickets.

3) Guard your identity online by using payment systems like Apple Pay, Google Wallet or Payoneer. If you are asked to make payment via PayPal, add on the Buyer Protection fee. It’s inexpensive, only 3.1% + $0.30 per transaction. Otherwise you are not shielded from having someone take off with your money without giving you a valid ticket in return.

Reselling of San Diego Safari Park Tickets is Prohibited

Photo of San Diego Safari Park Guest Pass with text prohibiting resale.

The sale or transfer of guest coupons, complimentary tickets, or unused memberships is a violation of the legal terms of the San Diego Zoo Global annual membership agreement. Words to that effect can be found on all Safari Park tickets.

Buying tickets from someone who is not an authorized ticket seller is a chancy proposition. Someone could have purchased a ticket online and printed more than one copy at home. There’s no way for you to tell if that ticket is good until it gets scanned at the gate.

I understand that sometimes vacations are canceled due to illness or emergencies. But it doesn’t happen very often. Keep in mind that there’s a good chance that an amazing deal on Safari Park passes is a scam.

Never purchase an unused membership to San Diego Zoo Safari Park. Annual pass holders must show a valid photo ID with their Zoo membership card at the gate. You’re out of luck unless your name is the same as the one on the card.

Don’t Buy Safari Park Tickets on Craigslist

Buying cheap San Diego Zoo Safari Park tickets on Craigslist is a gamble with the odds against you. None of the authorized ticket sellers list their inventory on Craigslist. And although you may find the occasional person who had to cancel a trip posting their unused tickets it is rare.

Before you put money down on cheap Safari Park tickets posted on Craigslist read Craigslist’s Avoiding Scams page . PLEASE.

Some people have had success if the Craigslist post says “pay after entry”. That usually means that the person selling the entry pass is a member who is selling their guest passes. The zoo member brings you in through the gate as their guest and you pay them the agreed amount after you’re inside.

This activity is prohibited by the members’ agreement with San Diego Zoo Global. Thus it’s morally questionable. It’s up to you whether you feel right about not doing the right thing to support endangered species.

eBay – That incredible Safari Park ticket deal on eBay could be real or could be a steal (with you being the victim). Before you try to purchase them, read the eBay how to recognize scams section.

Reddit – I’ve read about a few meetings for transfers of San Diego Zoo or Safari Park tickets arranged in these forums. The ones that were successful were of the “pay after entry” type.

Closing Thoughts on Buying San Diego Safari Park Discount Tickets

EVERYONE can save some money on admission to San Diego Safari Park. There’s no reason to pay the gate price. And I hope that I’ve proved that to you in this article. Between the SanDiegoing readers unpublished discount that you can get by calling 800-719-8961 and my discount tickets chart I’m hoping that you’ve found a San Diego Safari Park discount ticket deal that will work for you.

TripAdvisor

Great day out

This was a real interactive and memorable day. The whole experience created laughs and memories which will last a long time. Such value for money! Would definitely recommend.

Great experience

Lovely Safari Park, I think is the best one so far. I will definitely go again and recommend to friends.

Simply the best value for money day out!

This has to be one of the best attractions for a perfect day that is packed with so many things to do and enjoy... and, at such a great price, coupled with a free return visit. Awesome!

Best family day out

Love it!! Plenty to do and see for all ages, clean and tidy. All staff pleasent and friendly, been going at least once a year for over 30 years and still love going.

Fabulous place Great staff. Spotlessly clean

I have an annual pass so use WMSP a lot. It never fails to impress. Today we did the minibus safari tour with Clive, our tour guide and driver. He was so knowledgeable and helpful. It was a lovely experience.

Great day had by all

Lots of close ups with the animals. There was plenty to do and see. Lots of information available regarding the animals.

Dino Safari Las Vegas was a cute experience, but it might be better suited for younger kids. It's basically like strolling through a dinosaur museum with lots of exhibits. However, my nephew, who is 9, didn't find the activities very engaging. The place seemed a bit empty/lonely when we got there. The souvenir photo at the entrance was a nice touch. Plus, he did have fun on the VR ride, so that was a highlight of the visit! We paid around $76 for 2 adults and 1 nine year old.

Hello Lisset, thank you for your review of Dino Safari. We are excited to hear you enjoyed our VR and souvenir photo! If you're looking for another adventure your family is sure to enjoy, swing by Discovering King Tut's Tomb and let the exploration continue!

Went with my 6 yr old daughter during thanksgiving week 2023. Totally unexpected fun here! My daughter isn't into dinosaurs but she sure had great fun here! I gawked at the $23/child and $26/adult price ticket but we spend 1.5 hrs here. Pluses: - dinosaur slide - scanner that let you color a dinosaur, scan the picture, and the dinosaur you colored appears on a screen! - inside the hotel where the Monorail stop is - have enough interactive items for kids 2-8 yrs old - sandbox that you can scoop and play (sand is in a raised table) I'm not sure if I would redo this, but it was fun the first time!

This place is a small exhibit geared towards those who love dinosaurs and small children. Frankly, my kids loved it. I can't complain. You park in the Paris garage and you get 3 hours free if you are a resident.

Rawr-some greetings, Leslie! Thank you for reviewing your prehistoric adventure! Up for another heart pounding journey? Join us at Real Bodies for some anatomical fun!

We wanted to go check out some of the attractions and this one seemed like it would be fun. All I needed to know was there were dinosaurs and I was in. It was even better than I expected. Awesome huge dinos, but they are animated too! I did not know that before and was so excited when we entered and found out. Lots of very interesting information as well. There were actually quite a lot of dinos to check out and a couple other little extras you'll see if you go. I'm already worried my pictures tell too much but it's definitely not all of them by any means. It was so neat I'll actually be going again in a couple months because now my mom wants to check it out when we're there. I wouldn't usually spend the money to repeat an attraction but honestly this was so cool I have no problem doing just that. I'm taking my mom if that says anything about how much I recommend coming here.

The Dino Safari is such a hidden gem for any family with young children that is visiting Las Vegas. Actually, it's even more wonderful for locals like me that think to grab the Groupon discount! It's cheaper on weekdays than weekends, btw. Located within the Horseshoe Hotel/Casino - formerly Bally's - the Dino Safari is at a very prime location in the center strip. Once inside the hotel (coming from the self-parking lot) follow signs to the Real Bodies exhibit. Don't be alarmed that you'll also be in the Paris hotel once you enter; just follow the signs and you'll pass it. You'll soon see the walls adorned with the Dino Safari signs on the way. The entrance will be right there! It's basically a mazed museum filled with large, slowly-moving but very soft-to-the-touch dinosaurs. It also has a few interactive activities for the kids, like mystery box touch-and-feel artifacts, a digging zone with projected colorful dinosaur city videos onto it, a brachiosaurus slide, and a triceratops ride. My son was elated. He was still boasting to strangers about the experience a week later! I originally was introduced to this spot through a Yelp Elite perk, but we loved it so much that we had to come back with friends to experience it again! As a tip, the self-parking garage you'll be guided to is supposed to be free for the first few hours for locals. You should be able to scan your ID when paying for parking upon leaving. If it doesn't allow you too, talk to someone before making the final trip to your car. The signage (at least at this time of writing) guarantees this. Don't pay $23 just because they make it difficult for you.

This place is so awesome! It's difficult to find (on the lower level of Bally's / Horseshoe by the food court) but a ton of fun. This small exhibit is a must-see for folks with kids who love dinosaurs. I'm an adult and my husband took me for a surprise visit, and I was just as excited as all the children there. The prices are steep (it's on the Las Vegas Strip after all, so it caters to tourists), but locals with a Nevada i.d. get a significant discount (we paid $22 each for an adult tickets). The exhibit is small but takes about 45 minutes to an hour to walk through, depending on how much you stop and read. This exhibit was created by a real paleontologist, so it's very academic. There is a lot of reading, and it's quite educational in nature. I learned a lot about dinosaurs, including several facts that I didn't know. The dinosaurs are lifelike and life sized, so be prepared for some "oohs" and "aahs" as you round every corner. The animatronics are Disney quality, and they're just super cool. Photos are allowed, so have fun! There are some parts of the attraction geared solely for kids, like a sandbox where you can "dig" for "fossils" (included with admission), a 3D ride (extra), coloring tables (free), and a playground slide where you can ride down a dinosaur's tail (included). They even do kid's birthday parties, which is the coolest thing ever. I actually want MY birthday party here, lol. Kids get a free passport and crayons and can check off the regions they visit. There's a checklist of items to find too, which is fun for everyone. The gift shop is good and expensive, but they have lots of appealing merchandise. I do think the admission prices are a bit high for what this is, but anyone who loves dinosaurs will get a kick out of it. PRO TIP FOR LOCALS: Ask for the locals discount and park at Paris and walk over inside the hotel. Locals park free for 3 hours at Paris.

This is going to be 4 stars if you are looking to learn and do some interactive things. If yoy enjoy looking at animatronic robots, this is a 4 star. If this doesnt interest you, it will be a 2-3 star. The kids enjoyed, but not enough to say we want to go again and not enough to be upset that they're leaving. I dont recommend paying for the dino ride. The VR is decent, but maybe not worth the price. All in all, Dino Safari a very decent time spender and will keep the kids busy for a ln hour

We had a great time at the self experience. There was so much to see and do in a little booklet to check last everything to make sure you didn't Miss a thing. My grandson's favorite thing was comparing his feet to the dinosaur feet. He had no idea they were dinosaurs as big as the T. Rex. He and a friend had so much fun they didn't even mind not getting to do the few things that cost extra money. Bring a little extra cash if you want to ride the dinosaur or play in the arcade, we didn't, and still had a great time. We spent about two hours total, because we had to go back through twice just because they wanted to see everything again. Lol. There are a little things with doors to stick your hand in and guess what you're feeling that were a big hit, and dinosaurs that we got to touch and little dinosaurs that made little sounds that were really popular. All in all we had a great time. Yelp Elite is the way to go , I highly recommend trying to get elite if you can but more than that I recommend going to this dinosaur exhibit. We had lunch afterwards and all in all it was a fun day.

Petting the baby.

Mohammed greeted us upon entry and he was so pleasant he answered all of my questions and made some great suggestions for what the boys might enjoy since there a 4 year age difference btwn them. I think the exhibit was really fun and informative. My oldest thought the dinosaurs were cool and the youngest was terrified-so great job on the realism of the animatronic dinosaurs. The staff was really friendly and helpful. We took a souvenir picture upon entry and we went to the gift shop and got some really cool toys on the way out. Overall it was a great experience for the kiddos. I really like that the exhibit wasn't overly crowded so we could take our time and walk through and take pictures. Overall it was really clean and well kept. I think it's a 30-45 min experience. A cool family experience.
