    This is an adult-only event, 18 and over.
    Do you think you have an eye for photography? Do you wish you could get special access to the grounds and animals for photos? If so, this Photography Tour is just the thing for you! You will tour the zoo for a special look at some of your favorite animals with one of our Zoo Keepers. They will provide special access to give you those once in a lifetime photos. We’ll bring animals out when we can, allow you into enclosures we’re able, and take you beyond the barriers when it’s acceptable. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to take your lens truly behind the scenes! This event includes admission for the day.

    Please Note: Closed toed shoes are Mandatory to attend this event, as surfaces can be uneven. If you arrive in sandals, you will not be permitted to go behind the scenes or enter animal exhibits.
