Intimate and touching encounters with rescued jungle animals.

What a truly amazing experience. Not only were the encounters with rescued animals more up close than in a traditional zoo, but the volunteer who guided our tour was informative, funny, and extremely knowledgeable. He obviously cared about each and every animal, which made our encounters personal and touching. Our whole family - including 2 boys 12 and 14 - had one of the most memorable experiences.
