Amphibian Ark experience

We are very sorry, but animal experiences are currently suspended. Bookings will resume when Government guidelines allow, so please keep an eye on this page for the latest information. 

If you had a previous booking or have a voucher for an experience, we will contact you when we are able to resume them.

With amphibian species from around the world including Central and South America, Europe, and South East Asia, this will be an animal encounter to remember.

You will enjoy a one to one tour with one of our keepers who will take you around our fascinating Amphibian Ark. You will see some species which are exclusively kept by us, see the work we are doing to prevent extinction of these amazing animals and have the opportunity to chat with the keeper.

Our Amphibian Ark is a working environment where we are currently conducting research with many amphibians including many species of dart frogs, stubfoot toads (a close relative of the Critically Endangered golden frog), Majorcan midwife toads, terrestrial and aquatic caecilians and more. 

This is a great opportunity to see these unusual amphibian species close up and to learn about them and their conservation from our specialist keepers and scientists.

Please note handling of the animals is not allowed during this experience.
