Bali Zoo FAQs

Bali Zoo offers a unique and engaging experience with various animal encounters. Visitors can enjoy close interactions like hand-feeding elephants, petting deer, holding tropical birds, and cuddling with orangutans, making it a memorable visit for animal lovers and families.

The key difference between a traditional zoo and a safari park lies in the animal housing approach. Bali Safari Park provides a more natural, open environment for animals, akin to wildlife habitats, making it a distinctive choice for those seeking a more immersive and educational experience with a wide range of animals.

Generally, a few hours are sufficient to explore most of Bali Zoo. However, for those interested in additional activities like breakfast with orangutans, a longer stay is recommended. Combining the zoo visit with other Bali sightseeing trips is a popular option for many visitors.

Bali Zoo, located near Ubud in Sukawati, spans 22 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens. It is home to over 400 animals from various parts of the world, offering a comprehensive and educational wildlife experience for families and wildlife enthusiasts.

Bali Zoo provides a unique opportunity to feed elephants, allowing visitors to interact closely with these magnificent creatures in a tropical setting, enhancing the overall zoo experience.

Bali Zoo focuses on exhibiting animals in enclosures, whereas Bali Safari Park emphasizes a free-roaming environment for animals, replicating a natural habitat. Bali Safari Park offers educational encounters with animals from Indonesia, Africa, and India.

While Bali Zoo provides care for its animals, captivity inherently cannot fully replicate the natural needs of wild animals. As such, no facilities in Bali or Lombok are currently recognized as completely ethical wildlife viewing venues.

The Bali Safari and Marine Park offer various packages, with the Adventure Package starting from IDR 540,000 per person, including safari, aquarium, elephant show, and tax. For an exclusive experience like breakfast with lions, the package is priced at Rp675,000.

Bali Zoo, the island’s first zoological park, is a sanctuary for over 500 rare and exotic animals, set within a lush, tropical environment, providing an educational and fascinating experience for visitors.

Housing over 500 animals across 70 species native to Indonesia, Bali Zoo is a haven for various wildlife, including birds, reptiles, and mammals. Key attractions include lions, tigers, crocodiles, otters, gibbons, cockatoos, deer, elephants, and orangutans.

Established in 2020, Bali Zoo is the island’s pioneering animal conservation facility, owned and maintained by Anak Agung Gde Putra, Lesmana’s father, who has dedicated years to its care.

Bali Zoo opened its doors in 2002, marking its place as the first Balinese-owned zoological park. It was independently founded by Mr. Anak Agung Gde Putra in the Sukawati district of Gianyar , in his native village of Singapadu.

Have family coming to visit with young children and was wondering which might be the better option.

Had anyone been to both?

Many thanks

Yes I have been to both, they are both good. The zoo is only animals but the Safari and Marine Park has more variety; Aquarium, safari animals, photo opportunities with snakes and orangutans, some great shows with trained animals and a small waterpark which is a good break for kids or young at heart (BYO towel). The zoo is very good but the Safari and Marine park offers more variety.

Thank you for your advise

Much appreciated

For me, bali safari is better, they have a different concept as a zoo..

Thank you for your post

Thank you so much for taking the trouble to respond.

Breakfast with the orangutans does look great.

Don’t get a package that includes lunch - it was a decidedly average buffet. There are cafes and food stalls everywhere or bring a picnic.

The jungle splash was nice for a cool down afterwards, you have to hire towels if you didn’t byo.

It’s only 20k idr to hire towels though so shouldn’t break the bank.

If you have a child in a pram be prepared for very steep ramps! The shuttle bus is set up so you walk in from a platform, no climbing steps if you don’t want to.

We did a package including driver and lunch. If I went again I would just get the basic package, hire my own driver and either buy lunch there or take a picnic.

8 Reasons Why Bali Safari & Marine Park Should Be In Your Bali Itinerary

The ubiquity of intriguing temples, gorgeous beaches and top-notch sunset bars are no doubt reasons that constantly lure throngs of tourists to return to the scenic island of Bali. But what can families look forward to in the “island of Gods” besides all these? We know it can certainly be a struggle to suss out activities that will keep kids engrossed and on their toes!

Well, Bali Safari and Marine Park is perfect for you to kick-start an awesome adventure together! While the little ones squeal in delight and interact with these animals up close through a multitude of wildlife experiences, the adults can take this opportune time to forge stronger bonds and create even more precious memories together as a family.

Helmed as one of Bali’s most fascinating attractions, Bali Safari and Marine Park opened its gates to the world in 2007. This park in Gianyar boasts an incredible range of wildlife diversity from India, Indonesia and all the way to Africa! The Komodo dragon, Orang Utan and Bali mynahs are just some examples of endangered species endemic to Indonesia that you’ll be able to spot (keep those hawk eyes on)!  

If you are still not convinced, here are eight reasons why Bali Safari and Marine Park must be in your next Bali itinerary!

1. You can witness the animals roam freely from your Safari bus

What is a trip to a wildlife park without hopping on a Safari bus to witness the animals in full view? Instead of having to walk to the various enclosures (under the sweltering heat) and peer for a quick glimpse of the animals, you can now sit back, relax and really just enjoy the ride.

This bus literally transports you right to their natural habitats where you can spot docile bambis, African hippos and blue wildebeests roaming freely. If you're visiting some time in April, you can also expect to see a  family of mandrills that will be joining the wildlife collection! If lady luck is on your side, you might even see these animals lumber along right beside you. With quick reflexes, be sure to snap that coveted selfie!  

As you listen to the informative commentary provided by your experienced guide during the slow 30-minute loop, be amazed by the park’s extensive wildlife collection of over 80 distinct animal species with the most epic display being the legendary Indian white tigers!

2. The tots can feel and feed the furry ones at the Petting Zoo

This incredible safari encourages interaction with its furry critters through the kid-friendly Petting Zoo. From goats and guinea pigs to rabbits and ponies (you can ride them too!), swoon over these adorable creatures and learn more about their diets and some intriguing fun facts. There is also a large collection of birds, ducks, hamsters and even iguanas around (for the braver ones!).

3. The exhilarating Night Safari journey will leave your jaws hanging

The roles are reversed during this heart-thumping Night Safari journey, especially when you can enter the tiger’s den in a special cage tram. Yes, you read that right. You will be the ones caged as these ferocious carnivores eye your every move.

After your guided walk around the park set off into the dark wilderness via the cage tram and keep your eyes peeled for nocturnal creatures that may slowly advance towards the cage. As the park ranger dangles a fresh slab of meat to lure the elusive tigers, watch how these hungry predators pounce and gobble it right above you. A once-in-a-lifetime experience, it is also one of the closest encounters you’ll ever get with a tiger without becoming its next meal! During the ride, you may also hand-feed gentle herbivores like elephants, giraffes and zebras.

Do not forget to catch the spectacular fire dance-cum-puppet show – Afrika! Rhythm of Fire Show – which runs for about 15 minutes. Watch these passionate dancers present an authentic tribal dance accompanied by drum beats and props. Round up an exciting evening with a delectable all-you-can-eat barbeque dinner at the lovely N’kuchiro Bar & Grill.

4. The mythical Bali Agung Show will leave you awestruck

Featuring an impressive cast of 180 actors, 40 elaborate puppets and more than 30 animals, including ten elephants and a flock of birds, "Bali Agung - The Legend of Balinese Goddesses" is an absolute must-watch! Yes, the humans are not the only actors in this show! This unique theatre production seamlessly weaves in the roles of the animals too. The story recounts a true tale of a 12th-century Balinese king, King Jaya Pangus, who weds a Chinese princess, Kang Ching Wie and fathers a child with another woman, better known as Bali's Goddess of fertility.

Sharing a mega 60x40-metre stage in a colossal theatrical complex that can seat up to 1,200 people, the talented actors put up an incredible show. From the vibrant display of well-choreographed dances to the traditional Balinese music accompaniments, this legendary play is one you’ll not forget.

5. There are FREE live animal shows to catch!

Bali Safari and Marine Park has no shortage of engaging animal shows! Be sure to get a front and centre seat and be tickled by the acts of the ever-friendly Orang Utan and gentle elephant giants. You might even see some surprise special guests that will leave you going “ooh” and “aah” throughout! The shows to look out for include: Animal Educational show and the Elephant Conservation & Educational show. On weekends, you can also expect to witness the fascinating Elephant Parade! Once the show ends, you can take photos with the main superstars! This is the perfect time for you to snap that long-awaited family portrait.

6. You can dine alongside Tsavo Lion Restaurant’s main residents

At Bali Safari and Marine Park, dining with the King of the Jungle is not a problem at all. Of course for safety precautions, there is a solid glass panel separating you and these majestic creatures. Tsavo Lion Restaurant is the first African-themed restaurant in Asia that allows you to feast on your meal while being in super close proximity to these mighty lions! This fine dining restaurant is located just beside the lion's exhibition area, giving you surreal views of the pride gathering and playing with each other.

The restaurant serves up a tantalising range of meals from western favourites such as Tasmanian Salmon to Balinese classics (Crispy Duck Leg, yum!). A vegetarian and kid’s menu are also available to cater to individual preferences. Need to use the washroom thereafter? Be warned – there may be prying eyes.

7. The Water Park and Fun Zone will allow you to soak in even MORE fun!

After spending quite a bit of time exploring the park’s vast acres, cool off at The Water Park where a dizzying array of water slides, toy water guns and fountains await. You can also expect to find toddler-friendly water playgrounds, a whirlpool and a swimming pool! Free lockers, shower and changing facilities are also readily available, giving you even more reasons to soak in more fun. While the young ones whizz and slide all around, the adults can retreat in another pool replete with a chill bar. This is certainly one of the best ways to deal with Bali’s humidity.

If you prefer to dodge being completely soaked, have fun at the Fun Zone instead! Hop on a Jungle Cruise boat ride or embrace the mad adrenaline rush as you whirl and twirl on the roller-coasters. You can expect to embrace fun in epic proportions here, no doubt.

8. You can ensure an educational fun-filled outing for all to enjoy

Conservation is and will always be an important element of wildlife parks and nature reserves. Here at Bali Safari and Marine Park, education and conservation is greatly emphasized through the various in-house breeding programs, shows and exhibits highlighting the current concerns for various species.

For example, the Elephant Conservation & Educational show mentions about how the elephants were rehabilitated to prevent them from being hunted in the wild. You will also garner a deeper understanding of the history of the conflict between elephants and humans and better fathom the importance of saving the homes of these gentle giants. Your trip to Bali Safari and Marine Park is more than just a family outing, it’s an eye-opening journey that will shine light on issues that are pertinent in today’s world.

Depending on the duration of time you have and your individual interests, choose the best package that meets the likes of your family! The entrance fees are dependent on the chosen package. If you wish to further immerse yourself in this exclusive safari experience, spend a couple of nights at the cosy Mara River Safari Lodge .

Located within the grounds of the Bali Safari Marine Park , all lodges feature an open-air terrace, granting guests the opportunity to observe different animals at close range. Guests also enjoy complimentary access to Bali Safari and Marine Park and enjoy special discounts for other additional attractions. The family suites are perfect for those coming with the little ones in tow.

This is one attraction you do not want to miss in Bali. In fact, you might actually think you’re right in the heart of the African savannah!

We would like to take our 3 kids (aged 7 to 10) to one of these animal parks - but which one?? The safari park seems to be a lot more expensive - is it worth it??

Kids would like to get close to animals if possible.

Any ideas & suggestions would be very welcome.

I would recommend Safari park. It is excellent value for the money you outlay.

You need to plan for 4 -5 hours with photo stops and drink breaks etc. All in all it is a great day.

Hi Snookystravel can you tell me which is the best option to purchase if you want to get a photo shot with the baby orang tangs - would it still be the Jungle Hopper?

Both are good to visit , the good thing about the zoo is its owned by Balinese so the money helps the locals out alot

We did both but we had 15 days to entertain the rug rats so just did a trip out each alt day with rest/hotel/ shop days in between. My kids were 8 to 17 and enjoyed both places and found different rewarding experiences at each place but the Safari park won the top vote. Def take swim gear and take a driver and then you can leave when your ready or in our case when we got kicked out !! Next time we will definitely be staying the night.

we bought the jungle hopper and got a photo with the urangatang. the pools at the end are brilliant so factor in at least an hour there too. bring at least one towel/sarong as they dont hire any

Thanks Milly for the info much appreciated.

The Safari Park is certainly a lot glitzier.

Could I ask is the flying fox for adults as well as kids? Hope so because I'm a big kid and I haven't been on one since I was a little kid and that was about 50 years ago. Really want to include this in my old girls "bucket list".

Thanks everyone for all your tips. We might just have to visit both!

Bali Safari park review after 2023

During the pandemic of 2020, there was a huge promo to visit the Bali Safari park. Don’t confuse this one with the Bali Zoo, that’s a totally different zoo. In October 2022, I visited again as a family trip, and it was a very different experience for both the audience and the staff.

The park is located in the east of Bali. Nearby you have the chance to eat the biggest burger of Bali . It takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to get to Bali Safari Park from Seminyak or south.

This post contains affiliate links. If you use these links to buy something, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. It helps me a lot if you’d buy .

The opening times for Bali Safari Park are different depending on what ticket you buy. The most common and popular one is during the day, these opening times are from 9 am to 5 pm. If you go for the night safari, then the opening time is from 6 pm to 10 pm, and some parts will close earlier, like the night safari walk. For more information about ticket pricing and opening times (which can vary) do check at this webpage of Bali Safari Marine Park . At the time of writing the prices start from 640k IDR and up, which is 40 USD and up depending what ticket you want. You can even pay 77.50 AUD per person as per comment. It can be a costly venture, make sure to read the website.

Buy your ticket for Bali Safari Marine Park with the Best Price Guarantee. Different options are available.

The Entrance

You can reach the park by scooter, car or van. If you have a reservation for Bali Safari park you could mention it here. You will get some directions on where to park (depending on your vehicle type) and you could walk from there to the ticket booth. If you have only made reservations and or don’t have your ticket yet you would need to collect them here.

You will get some wristbands here. You don’t need to put it on yourself, it can make the scanning of your bar/QR code difficult. Just scan the code first, this happens further at the small gate. Then there will be staff for you to put it on. After this, you would need to wait for the bus. It’s a few minutes’ ride to the actual park.

You will also be checked for any foods and drinks. It is not allowed to bring inside the park. I was with my daughter 3 years old. I had some things for her, the milk she’d like and her own brand snacks specially for kids. This wasn’t an issue for me at the time. We were with 3, and it was visible we only had something for our little one. No issue because of this.

Aquariums and Bali Marine park

Your start begins with the part filled with the aquarium. It’s a bit nice and cool here in terms of temperature. Other than that there is a lot to see. The marine park itself is still “coming soon”, this happened also on my last visit about 3 years ago.

Piranha feeding

The piranha’s feeding starts from 10 am to 12 pm and from 1 pm to 4 pm. So if you are a bit early and want to see it. It will cost 70k IDR (US $4.50) per 2 baits. Here is a short YouTube clip of how it will look like.

As soon as we saw the sign of coming soon, we went back to the main road, structure, to follow the itinerary. Do check the schedule and timetable .

• Animal Show

Big Cat Show

• Elephant Show
• Bali Agung Show
• Safari Journey
• Free roaming the park
• (Feeding) at Petting Zoo
• Uma restaurant

During the whole trip I advice to have some bottle of water with you. You can buy this all over the park. It can be hot make sure to hydrate all the time.

The Animal Show

This show starts 2x a day. From 10.30 am to 11 am and from 16:00 – 16:30 at Hanuman Stage.

The animal show is very educational and fun for all ages. They include all kinds of animals from small rodents, to two orangutans. You will learn all kinds of things during this show. The fun thing is, that post-pandemic, the animals and presenters do interact more with the audience, and you might have an opportunity to volunteer and help out during the show. After the show, 10 people will be picked out to make pictures on stage with the animes. If you are picked out, take your loved ones with you, so they can enjoy this moment with you. Yes, this is allowed 🙂

Warning : If you have a phobia of snakes, do not sit at the first 3 rows of the audience, rather sit more at the back. This is because there will be someone with a large albino python walking around the first 2 rows.

In the Big Cat Show, you will see a bit of the history of the tiger and why they are endangered. The tigers will demonstrate also their ability to climb a tree, swim, and other skills they possess. During this show, there is no interactivity with the audience.

We missed the elephant show and the Bali Agung show, to roam the park free, whilst everyone was at the show we enjoyed a calm park and premium seats for our safari.

Free roaming in the park

Free roaming is the best when you are with little ones. Children want to roam around free and run from here to there. There are enough animals to see and experience. At the bird area, you can even see some parrots roaming free. So missing out on the scheduled events and shows sometimes isn’t that bad. The petting zoo is a lot of fun for the small little ones, do spend some time if you are with kids.

The Siberian tiger or white tiger has its feeding scheduled at 2:30 pm. Before that, you can see the tiger pacing around waiting for food. Almost a bit aggressive running towards the window waiting for something to eat. Interesting to see while you are safe, you can see the tiger’s teeth and impatience for food around this time.

The Safari is the highlight of the park itself. You will take a drive through all kinds of areas with different animals. Each their own territory. It was amazing to see the Hippos eat. They are mostly in the water but we were lucky to see this. Behind the Rhino (tap/click to enlarge pictures and zoom) you can actually see the accommodation of the park. So you can take a hotel there and enjoy the park.

The Safari tour is an amazing and educational experience. Sit back and enjoy!

Uma Restaurant

Uma restaurant is not the one with the Lions! Last time we went to that restaurant there. It’s a nice and spacious restaurant with a playground for little children. Uma Restaurant is like a food court, you will get a separate bill for almost every order. We’ve received 3 bills. The Nasi Campur is a clean nice and spicy meal. The Pizza rendang, was very hard and tough to eat. it gave our jaws some aches. It was hard to chew. This is because of the dough. The salad was nice and refreshing, it came with balsamic vinegar for a bit of an acidic taste. yummy!

Verdict Bali Safari park

There is a huge improvement compared to when we visited Bali Safari Park during the pandemic . It’s an excellent place to visit for a day. I am not sure about staying there in a hotel. Might be very convenient for the evening visit and feeding the predators. The Safari Park comes with a hefty price ticket, but you can see and do a lot there. So I would say it’s worth it for a family outing, a date, or even for animal lovers to see the tropical animals of this park. I have included some pictures but there is so much more to see at Bali Safari Park.

I hope you liked this review and that you feel convinced in going! It’s a unique experience, especially the safari! You will come out enriched with newly found knowledge

If you’re planning to do more in one day, also check out Tirta Gangga , because that’s about 1.5 hours drive from there

4 thoughts on “Bali Safari park review after 2023”

We first went to the Bali Safari & Marine Park in 2013 and we loved it. We went yesterday and what a total different experience. I would like to say it was nice but it was an absolute rip you off experience from start to finish. We paid at the entrance a bit over $310.00AU ($77.50AU each) for four of us, while the locals basically pay nothing…. Worst part at the entrance was our driver did not take a white piece of paper at the entrance gate and we could not enter with out it…anyhow a good 20minutes later they just scanned another driver’s ticket and we could enter. The toilets were putrid and looked liked they had not been cleaned in months and did not have toilet paper (strongly recommend BYO toilet paper in case!). The displays in parts were missing animal exhibits and the shows were so loud I reckon I have suffered hearing loss. The small roller coaster (not that we went for that) used to be free for kids…not now at least for tourists as we were asked to pay 30k Rp while the locals went on for free. All in all it is so obvious the zoo will extract as much money from a tourist as it can. We have been to many many zoos all over the world and I recommend saving you money for another activity or a trip if you are from AU to a zoo like Dubbo. This zoo is clearly charging entrance prices (for tourists) in excess of quite a few around the world and I just did not see the value or get a positive experience from start to finish for the price for an average family.

Hi Martin, thank you for sharing your experience!

Hi Dear, Thank you for sharing this details. This content is very helpful for me.

Thank you Elly!

Furthermore, Bali Safari & Marine Park, one of Bali island’s favorite tourist attractions, presents a home for wildlife in its natural habitat. The design of the site blends with the culture of Balinese society. Therefore, it is perfect for you to visit Bali during a family vacation.

See Here, “ All Things You Need To Know About Bali Zoo Gianyar ” >>>

Furthermore, there are diverse rare animals from 3 countries in Bali Safari Park—namely Indonesia, India, and Africa. Animals consist of 60 species and 400 endangered species.

Furthermore, animals originating from Indonesia include Sumatran tigers, Komodo dragons, white starlings, deer, Bali Mynah,  Orang Utan , and plenty of pigs. Also, India’s rare animals include spotted deer, blackbuck, Nilgai, and Himalayan bear. Rare African animals include the Hippopotamus, Lion, Blue Wildebeest, Babbon, Ostrich, and Zebra.

Apart from being an attractive tourist destination on Bali island, Safari Marine Park also operates as a breeding base for endangered animals. The rare White Tiger from India is in a breeding trial.

I can tell you if you are concerned about Bali Safari Marine Park’s quality! The zoo, Aquarium Park, is one of the members of Taman Safari Indonesia and the World Associations of Zoo and Aquariums, which is well-known as  WAZA .

Furthermore, this Safari & Marine Park is also a member of CBSG (Conservation Breeding Specialist Group). Therefore, by joining the world’s organizations and associations, Safari & Marine Park offers international quality standards and services.

As a result, the park ranks high in Tripadvisor reviews regarding Attractions in Gianyar. Finally, find the  Tripadvisor Review here to see reviews from other travelers who have visited the Bali Safari and Marine Park.

Usually, when visitors visit zoos to see animals, visitors have to walk from one location to another. Unlike the Bali Safari and Marine Park, visitors will board a vehicle to see live animals in their natural habitat.

Furthermore, the safari trip will take you into the jungle landscape and be designed like the real jungle in Indonesia, India, and Africa. The safari trip with a tram car is called Safari Journey.

Furthermore, Safari Journey is the main attraction at Bali Safari & Marine Park. Most noteworthy, you and your kids were going to love it! The question is, why?

You will see the animals safely and comfortably directly from inside the conveyance. If you are lucky, you will witness animals encircling the car you are riding in. Also, from this safari tram, you will notice the real life of how the animal lives naturally in their habitat. Please take this chance to capture as many photographs as you desire.

So, if you have a DSLR or mirrorless camera with a zoom lens, it will be relevant and usable on this safari journey. To take animal pictures effortlessly, you will need a telephoto lens, a minimum of 85mm lens.

Also, the safari tram is very comfy, and a safari tour guide will describe each animal you notice. Also, some animals will be near your safari tram window, don’t be scared! Since the tram window has been well secured.

Meanwhile, on the Safari Journey, the tram will drive and plunge to the lake; on this lake, you will notice plenty of hippos swimming to cool down. You also will see Zebra, Lion, and Tiger on this incredible Bali safari journey.

During the wildlife safari tour, your kid will ask you plenty of questions about the animals. It would be good if you could answer them. A guide in the vehicle will explain every animal you encounter, and they are always welcome to respond to your kid’s queries.

Meanwhile, the Safari Journey lasts roughly 30 minutes. You can enjoy the Safari Journey activity once. Also, the Safari Journey is included in the price of your Bali Safari Marine Park entrance ticket.
