Dinner Safari
No time to fly to Africa for dinner on the Serengeti? No problem! Join us for a family friendly event that starts with an after-hours tour of the Honolulu Zoo to see what our animals do when the sun is setting and the gates are closed.

Your night ends with s'mores around a campfire -- and likely a few roars and howls in the distance!

You will enjoy s'mores around a campfire before hitting your tent for the night, serenaded with roars, whoops, and howls from the Zoo inhabitants in the background.

"Zoo to You" Outreach Program (Preschool through College)
Preschool through College

Bring the wonder of the Zoo into your school or classroom! Our goal is to foster an appreciation of our living world through hands-on *biofact* (furs, feathers, skulls, etc.) study. By bringing our touchable models and natural biofacts into your classroom, we cultivate personal connections to animals and the environment. Each program is approximately 45 minutes long and has been designed by educators with developmental appropriateness and state and national content standards in mind.
Due to the Zoo's status as a federal quarantine facility, we are unable to include live animals in our presentations.
*Our collection of skulls are not real -- they are plaster casts. All of our fur, feathers, and skins are genuine artifacts.

Fee
$125 per session
Free to Title I schools
Free career day presentation (limit 1 per month)
Please make all checks payable to the "Honolulu Zoo Society"

Dates
