Our recent visit to Bali Zoo left our family enchanted by an unforgettable morning filled with unique animal encounters and heartwarming experiences. As first-time visitors, we were amazed by the zoo’s commitment to caring for its animals, making it an exceptional destination for families of all ages.
The highlight of our visit was undoubtedly the ‘Breakfast with Orangutans‘ program, a first-of-its-kind experience in Indonesia. Imagine starting your day enjoying a delightful breakfast in the company of these majestic creatures. The hotel pick-up around 7 a.m. commenced our adventure, leading us to the zoo, where the serene atmosphere and morning ambience set the perfect tone for an exciting day ahead.
Guided by a knowledgeable zookeeper, we were greeted by playful orangutans at the traditional Sumatran Buffalo House area. Witnessing these delightful animals in their element was truly heartwarming. The breakfast offered was equally delightful, featuring a spread of seasonal fruits, fresh-baked bread with butter and jam, and a choice of tantalizing main courses like Egg Benedict or Nasi Goreng. The aromatic Balinese kopi tubruk added the perfect finishing touch to this breakfast feast.
However, the excitement didn’t end there. We then had the opportunity to feed the elephants and interact closely with gibbons and various birds before venturing on a tour around the zoo. This morning engagement with the animals set the tone for a day filled with wonder and joy.
The zoo’s commitment to wildlife conservation is evident in its diverse collection of 600 animals from 65 species. From lions and tigers to lemurs and otters, every animal resides in habitats that replicate their natural environments. Moreover, the zoo’s dedication to enrichment activities ensures the well-being of its residents, fostering their natural instincts and overall welfare.
For families seeking an enriching and educational experience, Bali Zoo offers activities such as feeding deer, elephants, tigers, lions, ponies, and meerkats, allowing for interactive moments that are both entertaining and educational.
Located in the Gianyar Regency, Bali Zoo is easily accessible from major tourist hubs like Ubud, Kuta, Sanur, and Seminyak, making it a convenient destination for families exploring Bali.
In conclusion, our visit to Bali Zoo was an extraordinary adventure that left a lasting impression on our entire family. We highly recommend this incredible experience, which seamlessly blends entertainment, education, and animal welfare, making it a must-visit destination for families seeking an unforgettable day amidst nature’s wonders.
