点评:Monarto Safari Park passes were part of our Monarto Safari Resort package.
The Park is an open zoo with wide enclosures for the animals.
There are six clusters of enclosures services by a hop on hop off bus. There are informative volunteers at all stops to help you navigate the enclosures and excellent viewing platforms.
Tip: Stop 1 is effectively for the Cheetah enclosure only.
Tip: time your visit to stop 5’s Rhino talk then do the Cheetah talk. Stop 1 and 5 are close together and an easy walk between.
Stop 2 features Meerkats, Chimps and Rock Wallaby. The Rock Wallaby is one of very few walk through enclosures.
Tip: if you are early enough you can visit here before catching the bus and joining the first keeper at stop 4.
Stop 3: is for Elephants including former Auckland Zoo’s elephant Burma.
Tip: you see additional animals between the stops such as Bison that are not available easily on foot - so make sure you do all the rides!
Stop 4: includes giraffes and Tasmanian Devil - make sure you do the keeper talks in this area.
Stop 5: Rhino and There are zoo specific buses but also SALink buses (school run buses that operate at the zoo during the day)
Stop 6: carnivores including hyena, painted dogs and lions.
Tip: Don’t believe when they say you have time to catch the Carnivore shuttle just before the talk - our driver took time to let us see the animals but we missed the talk!
Stop 7: entrance and exit through the gift shops.
Tip: There are a number of zoo experience including Lion 360° but these need to be booked in advance
There are dedicated zoo buses and the zoo also uses off duty school buses during the day. Buses wind down from 3pm so don’t get too far away, it would be a long walk! Buses take about 90min for a complete circumnavigation of the stops.
There are various walking paths through the park and while a couple are long they are easy grades.
翻译:莫纳托野生动物园门票包含在我们的莫纳托野生动物园度假村套餐中。
该动物园为开放式动物园,拥有宽敞的动物围栏。
园内设有六个动物围栏群,可乘坐随上随下的观光巴士游览。每个站点都有热情的志愿者,帮助您了解各个围栏和观景平台。
小贴士:1 号站实际上只参观猎豹围栏。
小贴士:建议您先参观 5 号站的犀牛讲解,然后再参观猎豹围栏。1 号站和 5 号站距离很近,步行即可轻松到达。
2 号站展出狐獴、黑猩猩和岩袋鼠。岩袋鼠的围栏是少数几个可以步行进入的。
小贴士:如果您来得够早,可以在乘坐巴士前往 4 号站之前先参观 2 号站,与第一位饲养员见面。
3 号站展出大象,其中包括来自奥克兰动物园的大象缅甸。
提示:在各个站点之间,您还会看到一些步行难以到达的动物,例如野牛——所以一定要体验所有游乐设施!
第 4 站:包括长颈鹿和塔斯马尼亚恶魔——务必参加此区域的饲养员讲解。
第 5 站:犀牛。这里有动物园专用巴士,还有 SALink 巴士(白天在动物园运营的校车)。
第 6 站:食肉动物,包括鬣狗、非洲野犬和狮子。
提示:不要相信他们说的可以在讲解开始前赶上食肉动物接驳车——我们的司机让我们先看了动物,结果我们错过了讲解!
第 7 站:通过礼品店进出。
提示:动物园提供多种体验项目,包括狮子 360° 全景体验,但这些都需要提前预订。
动物园有专用巴士,白天也会使用非运营的校车。下午3点以后公交车班次会减少,所以不要坐得太远,不然走回去会很远!公交车绕所有站点一圈大约需要90分钟。
公园里有多条步行道,虽然有几条比较长,但坡度都很缓。
