Night Guided Tour
What do the animals get up to after dark? Discover the animals’ night life in a special way, on one of the most entertaining, educational and mysterious themed tours at ZOO Ljubljana.
About the night tour
Do you enjoy visiting the forest at night and listening to the sounds of nature?
In the silence of the night forest we rely on our sense of hearing and smell. We will visit the animals that are more active at night and those that sleep very little. We’ll find out where the bears doze, what lynx, wolves and Alpine ibex get up to at night, and peek into the Canadian beavers’ den. After a look behind the scenes at the giraffes, we will visit the Asiatic lions and learn why the female likes to lie in one particular spot. We will meet insects and pet a reptile.
You will need suitable clothing and footwear and a torch for the night walk around the zoo. As light disturbs the animals, only the guide uses a special torch to illuminate them.
The number of participants on the night tour is limited and the dates fill up quickly, so bookings are essential! A booking is confirmed once payment has been made.
The education service is available by phone between 07:30 and 11:30, so please send all booking enquiries by email, to which we respond regularly.
