Flashlight Adventures

Experience the zoo in a different light…flashlight!

Have you ever wondered what happens at the zoo after the zookeepers go home? Reserve one of our after-hours programs and find out for yourself.

Critter Camp-Ins: Join us for an overnight adventure!

Here’s your chance to sleep in a Zoo!  Enjoy a pizza dinner, interactive animal-themed activities, a flashlight tour of the zoo, before falling asleep to an animal-themed animated movie.  Wake up early for a light breakfast and a morning zoo tour before heading home.  Take home a souvenir Flashlight Adventures Keepsake Cup and Adventures Patch.

Schedule a Critter Camp-In for just $45 per person (minimum of 20 people)

Or take an evening adventure: Twilight Tours

Twilight Tours are ideal for younger children, birthday parties, school nights or adult groups interested in an after-hours zoo experience and you’ll still enjoy the comfort of your own bed. Enjoy a pizza dinner, interactive animal-themed activities, a flashlight tour of the Zoo, and a campfire and s’mores before heading home for the night. Take home a souvenir Flashlight Adventures patch.
