Nothing says “Safari” more than a classic adventure in Tanzania, the first wildlife conservation travel opportunity offered by the Oklahoma City Zoo in 2023. We’ll be on the search for the “Big Five,” while learning about the land in which we travel, and the conservation projects planned or currently underway. We balance this by combining the best wildlife destinations with some of Africa’s delightful lodges and camps. Your Rwanda extension will afford you an intimate experience with both Mountain Gorillas and Golden Monkeys. As a bonus you’ll visit the Ellen DeGeneres Campus, the headquarters of the Dian Fossey Fund.
Note: The Galapagos safari is currently sold out. We encourage you to consider private safari opportunities to explore the Galapagos Islands. Please scroll down and learn about the private safari program through the Oklahoma City Zoo.
Next up in 2023, a speck of islands in the vast Pacific – where the inhabitants seem to defy nature’s laws – giant tortoises that live a century or more, lizards that dive into the sea to feed, penguins at the equator, cormorants that have lost their ability to fly… It is called “Galapagos!” Enjoy a once in a lifetime safari cruise on a private yacht in and around the Galapagos Islands. Whichever you choose, you’ll return with wonderful memories of your time in Tanzania or the Galapagos!
These amazing travel opportunities are offered by the Oklahoma City Zoo in partnership with Safari Professionals – a wildlife conservation travel company with over 35 years of designing and conducting unique adventures in wildlife destinations throughout the world.
