What to do in Zoo Safari?

Incontrare una tigre che riposa all’ombra di un ulivo, imbattersi in un gruppetto di zebre che si gode il sole, ascoltare il ruggito potente del leone, incrociare gli occhi dolci della giraffa e stupirsi della presenza imponente dell’elefante, del bufalo e del rinoceronte…nel cuore della Puglia. No, non è un sogno ma la fotografia di una giornata speciale e indimenticabile da trascorrere allo Zoo, immersi nella natura e circondati dalla meraviglia del mondo animale, in piena libertà.

At the end of the journey by car, the visit across the continents of the Earth continues in the pedestrian area. Here, in a setting embellished with lots of greenery, close and extraordinary encounters with the protagonists of the animal kingdom continue. And, as if by magic, you find yourself immersed in the fascinating world of primates: from the beloved gorilla Riù, to the very active chimpanzees, to the agile lemurs. And then again the white alpacas, wild dogs and various large birds.

The experience continues aboard a panoramic monorail that leads to a suggestive area dominated by a small waterfall and a small lake dotted with islets with very special inhabitants: the Lake of the Great Mammals. Here the visitor can get lost in the observation of seals, hippos, gibbons, but also brown bears and polar bears. To complete it all with a visit to the Monkey Village: an unforgettable experience !.

In the Tropical Room begins a path entirely dedicated to reptiles, fish and various invertebrates. In this tensile structure of about 700 square meters, in suitably air-conditioned display cases, it is possible to get to know all kinds of snakes, poisonous and not (boas, pythons, rattlesnakes, vipers), both freshwater and terricolous turtles, saurians, iguanas, monitor lizards, skinks, geckos, chameleons, alligators, tropical fish and even giant spiders, scorpions, butterflies …

The Madagascar Room is a laboratory designed to offer school-age children scientific, sensory, tactile and interactive experiences with biological finds such as bone remains, reptile packs, deer antlers and in vitro material. In the room you can also admire rare living specimens of Lemurs and other species typical of Malagasy fauna, immersed in an extremely natural and suggestive environment.

The historic structure that has hosted various dolphins over the years, has taken on the role of Sea Lion Aquarium for some years. Here, the trainers, during the dedicated educational sessions, take the visitor, adult or child by the hand, to accompany him on a fantastic journey to discover the biology and ethology of sea lions, sea lions and penguins. A formative and exciting experience

The Story of Zoo Safari:

In the 1970s, the Pedali farm, based in a farm in Fasano, decided to open a farmhouse with a zoo attached to it to attract customers. The park was opened on July 25, 1973, with the part dedicated to the zoo. In the following years the adjacent amusement park was also opened, initially called Fantasilandia, and later renamed Fasanolandia.

An itinerary that reserves interesting surprises: from the animals of the savannah such as tigers, zebras, giraffes, elephants or lions to the typical species of other ecosystems such as deer, camels, collared bears, flamingos … All free and so close, what a unique emotion!
