Round the World Safari
 

Ever wanted to go on a wildlife safari and know for certain that you’ll see all the animals you’re looking for?

Don’t feel like trekking out to the Serengeti or Madagascar?

Well with us you can see the whole world of wildlife on your doorstep! Join us on a walk in the peaceful Scottish countryside and see creatures from every continent, as well as some of our own British Wildlife.

Follow our intrepid explorer and wildlife expert Professor Davina Attenborurrel, ably assisted by fearless wildlife wrangler and tracker Mike ‘Snakebite‘ Erwin, on a nature trail covering the five major continents of the world. Watch Meerkats from the grasslands of Africa as they run and play! Observe in startled awe, the Giant Panda of southwest China’s bamboo forests!

Hang on, you’re thinking! Is this safe? Meerkats? Giant Pandas? Lions and Tigers and Bears? Oh My! Well fear not! Don’t be afraid, you’re perfectly safe…..because all our animals are…wait for it…wait for it …Puppets! And very friendly puppets at that!

But the adventure is real! (And if you ever were to meet the real animals in the wild, after our walk you’d know a lot more about them than you do now!)
