Overview

You’ll get to see animals run, roam, prowl, and fly around in the park’s large and open naturalistic settings. Enjoy the various wildlife with your San Diego Zoo Safari Park tickets!

Explore over 1,800 acres of sprawling scenery that closely mimics the animals' natural habitats. You'll discover plenty of wild and endangered creatures, and learn more about the park's breeding programs and important conservation efforts. With 13 distinct habitats and regions within the park, there’s a ton to see and do during your day with your San Diego Safari Park discount tickets.

The all-new Denny Sanford Elephant Valley is the largest and most transformative project in San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance’s 109-year history. The habitat is meticulously designed to foster empathy, understanding and a lasting appreciation for elephants while igniting a desire to protect them and their native habitat. Elephant Valley includes Mkutano House, a two-story restaurant featuring three distinct dining destinations — Mkutano, Ona Lounge and Tu Grill — inspired by the rich and varied culinary traditions across Africa's many regions. Elephant Valley is included with Safari Park admission.

Audio quality was sharper than usual for this kind of ticket. Plenty of time to explore afterward, nothing felt confusing at the entrance.

Helpful crew and clear instructions. Photo spots were thoughtfully spaced along the route, we’d echo the hype online.
