1,200+ animals across 5 immersive zones — Asian, African, Arabian villages, Explorer Village & Al Wadi. Dubai's newest wildlife destination.
Dubai Safari Park is one of the city's newest and largest wildlife destinations — home to 1,200+ animals across 119 species, spread over 5 distinct zones. Opened in 2022, it replaced the old Dubai Zoo and offers a much more immersive, natural experience.
Zones include: African Village (lions, elephants, giraffes, rhinos), Asian Village (tigers, orangutans, komodo dragons), Arabian Village (Arabian oryx, gazelles, wolves), Explorer Village (walk-through aviary with 400+ birds), and Al Wadi (a self-drive safari experience).
Perfect for families with kids, animal lovers, and anyone wanting a break from Dubai's urban sights. Kids under 3 enter free. Hotel pickup & drop-off included.

Fantastic for families. Kids loved the African Village — saw lions, giraffes and elephants up close. Very well organised, clean, and reasonably priced.
Booked the VIP + Al Wadi self-drive — driving through the safari was incredible. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a unique wildlife experience.
