Travel the globe within this Wiltshire estate – stop off at African Village for a chance to see our new pack of African painted dogs, herd of Grants zebras and leap with lemurs. Say hi to our cheeky monkeys and bring your pack to meet our pack of wolves! Listen out for the Longleat lions’ roars as you explore. 
 
Continue your adventure on foot and walk with mischievous meerkats in Jungle Kingdom, feed rainbow lorikeets and watch our playful giant otters. Don’t forget to visit Koala Creek to see England’s only resident koalas, watch our sleepy sloths climb around or check in with our native red squirrels.     
 
Hop on board the Boat Safari and explore Half Mile Pond. Home to our family of noisy Californian sea lions, views of Gorilla Colony and Colobus monkeys will make quite a splash. Why not feed the sea lions to add to your unique day out? 
 
All aboard Longleat Railway! Enjoy a delightful ride around the lake and keep an eye on the action from our miniature railway. Or discover more about our history by adding a guided house tour to your itinerary.  
 
If your little cubs are looking to play, be sure to visit Little Explorer’s Garden and the Adventure Castle for plenty of room to let their imaginations run wild. Why not challenge yourself to our Hedge Maze and see if you can find your way through the winding passages? And no day is complete without a ride on Rockin’ Rhino!
