Experience the thrill of visiting the lion’s den!

Get up close and personal with the kings of the jungle right here in Auckland and meet one of the largest big cat species in the world.

Our Lion Experience will take you on a tour to the back of the lion’s enclosure where you will get to go Behind-The-Scenes – It doesn’t get any closer than this!

You will either enter the lion’s realm and assist the keeper in preparing a meal for these majestic animals or help them to set up their behavioural enrichment which helps to create an environment that mimics the animal's wild habitat.


Experience Highlights:


  • This experience is fully guided, with small group sizes. Your knowledgeable guide will be on hand and happy to answer any questions you may have
  • This amazing encounter will take you Behind-The-Scenes and away from the crowds at the Lion exhibit
  • Join the keeper into the Lion’s enclosure to put out their behavioural enrichment for the day
  • From your safe and reserved Behind-The-Scenes spot, be in awe of what the lions do when they emerge from their den
  • Your guide will be there to capture precious memories of your experience and provide you with a CD of the photographs
  • Experience includes all-day Zoo access – so you are free to explore the rest of Auckland Zoo

  • The proceeds from our Behind-The-Scenes experience go directly towards our vital conservation work carried out both in New Zealand and around the world.

    Our Lion Experience is a must for all lion lovers and makes for an unforgettable present for family or friends.
