Animal Encounters: Bringing You Closer to Nature

These experiences bring visitors face-to-face with some of the world’s most fascinating and beautiful animals, offering a personal and immersive adventure that goes far beyond a typical zoo visit. Imagine the excitement of feeding kangaroos by hand, or the awe of a behind-the-scenes tour where you can watch keepers care for gentle giants or even get close to a sumatran tiger. Encounters with beautiful animals such as lemurs, red pandas, and reptiles provide unforgettable opportunities to appreciate their unique characteristics and learn about their conservation. You can also meet gentle giants like giraffes, interact with mischievous meerkats known for their playful nature, and hand-feed wallabies during these animal encounters. Each animal encounter is designed to foster a deeper connection with wildlife, allowing visitors to learn about animal behavior, habitats, and the importance of conservation. These unique moments not only create lasting memories but also inspire everyone to play a part in protecting the natural world.

Wildlife Gift Experiences and Gift Vouchers For Everyone

Wildlife experiences make fantastic gifts for children and kids. See the curiosity and amazement in their eyes when they realise just how big of a splash a whale can make when it breaches 3 meters out of the water! Children can also gently pat friendly animals during these encounters, creating lasting memories that last a lifetime. It’s not often that a child will remember that toy that were given 5 years ago from their favourite uncle or aunt. But that whale watching experience, or the time they rode a horse for the first time. These are the gifts they will remember forever.

Not only do wildlife experiences make great gifts for kids, they make great days out for the whole family. Instead of giving a Father’s Day gift just for Dad, take him and the whole family on a outdoor adventure. Whether that be to your local wildlife sanctuary or you jump on a marine sightseeing cruise, it’s a gift worth much more to him than your standard socks and jocks! Looking for a gift for a serious adrenaline junkie? Why not give them a crocodile feeding experience, where they get feed an 800 kg crocodile it’s dinner?! Please note, some experiences may be subject to change or cancellation due to unforeseen event circumstances to ensure safety and animal welfare.

If that isn’t enough adrenaline for them, Gifting Owl even has cage dives with great white sharks! Obviously not so suitable for kids this time, but if you know an adult who would love to stare directly into the eyes of a great white shark, this is the experience gift for them - an eye-to-eye encounter that is truly unforgettable.

Marine Wildlife Experiences

Gifting Owl has hundreds of marine wildlife experiences for that one friend you just can’t get out of the water. We have humpback whales, dolphins, penguins, sharks, manta rays, seals, turtles and even orca whales! Many of these experiences include the opportunity to feed the animals, making food a fun part of the adventure, and some even offer special lunchtime animal encounters. Tick off that bucket list item for that special someone in your life with an experience gift they’ve only ever dreamed of.

Wildlife encounters are popular things to do when at home or abroad. They are both fun and educational as they give a better understanding of our natural environment and why we need to look after it. Gifting Owl even has experiences with endangered animals such as the Tasmanian Devil that showcase the incredible work that organisations do to protect these species. For those seeking a wild adventure, some activities take you into the heart of nature for a truly thrilling experience. If you’re after something a bit out of the ordinary, you can find experiences with puffins in Iceland, miniature penguins in Australia, or even unique encounters with dingoes.

During your visit, our knowledgeable staff are always available to answer questions about the animals and experiences. Visitors are encouraged to ask questions to enhance the educational value of their wildlife encounter.
