You can plan your day around keeper talks and feeding displays, browse the shop, and even follow live webcams of the snow leopards, fruit bats and raccoons when you're not visiting. It's a good day out for families and wildlife enthusiasts, though public transport is not recommended due to its remote location near the A1.
