SDZ Safari Park - Travel Guide 4+

A great experience well worth doing. The park does a phenomenal job pre-training you for the zipline! First they set you up with your flight gear, show you a video, explain the process while answering all your questions. Next they provide a box you put your personal property in so you won’t lose it on your flight, which protects your property and the animals below. (At the box office, they also offer a cool phone strap you may purchase for $10 so you can video your experience without fear of losing your phone. Wish I bought two of them. Best souvenir ever!!!) As a fledgling you will go on a fun test flight first before your 3/4 of a mile flight over the Safari animals. After your test flight you will travel in a Safari truck through areas of the conversation park where regular guest never see. Everyone is fun, kind, cautious, and professional. You are safe 100% of the time. While you zipline you will be sitting comfortably and your stop is similar to being on a swing. I could have done this all day! The view going down was amazing so don’t miss this!

The animals are most active in first or last tram when it is cooler and animals are being fed. Seeing the animals with the sunset as a background is AMAZING!! I encourage you to spend the extra $97 and take the truck Safari where you get to ride inside the “enclosure/up close and personal tour.” It is well worth the money! Again take earliest or latest “truck” safari” for extra $97!!

This was my first time visiting the safari park with my family and I downloaded the map right away. I loved that it gave updates and events that day and knew my current location. I also loved that I found filter the map by animals, attractions, food, etc. The problem I had was the map wouldn’t face the way I was going or even adjust to recently as I walked from place to place, so I often found myself taking a wrong turn and not realizing it until the blue line starting growing instead of shrinking on my directions. There were also a few times when the map said I wasn’t even on a path and I definitely was. I ended up using the paper map by the end of the day.
