    Great Tour Guide/Animal Welfare Concerns

    Benjamin did an absolutely amazing job guiding our tour and providing us with any additional information we had questions about, while keeping the energy relaxed 😎 10/10 tour guide experience. The Safari Park was a good time, I wasn’t sure what to expect but ended up being pleased with the experience as a whole with a few exceptions I believe are worth noting; some of the static enclosures were in a very sorry state, we had to overcome deep sadness for the Sea Lion’s habitat, it had no clean or running water available and its entire body was dried out, I even took a look in its private habitat to see if it had other options and the pool was nearly empty with green stagnant bacteria filled water, same as the easily visible pool. Another example was the lemurs, their enclosure was being painted with a spray gun, guests, workers, nearby animals, and the lemurs had to breathe in the toxic fumes, this does not seem like a healthy way to complete that task. Their enclosure was also being welded during this time, for approximately 5 hours the entire family sat in the center of their enclosure huddled together to avoid the fumes and welding. In addition, the signage for some of the animals needs replaced to better understand why some of the animals are stressed/injured and to know the reason they are there. I left the park with serious concerns for which animals are getting humane rehabilitation that needed it and which of them are being profited from due to their vulnerabilities. I hope the revenue being generated from the safari portions of the trip will be used to improve their habitats and psychological safety appropriately so the animals in rehab/from the wild don’t have to be stared at by humans, stressing them further.

    Response from the operator: Nos alegra saber que Benjamin hizo del recorrido una experiencia amena y que destacó por su disposición para responder sus preguntas. Agradecemos también que nos haya planteado con tanto detalle sus inquietudes sobre las condiciones de algunos recintos, las labores de mantenimiento y la información disponible para los visitantes. Tomaremos estos comentarios con la seriedad que corresponde y los derivaremos al equipo responsable para su revisión. 🦁

    Great experiences and guides, but mixed with sadness.

    Pros- Sebastian and Alexis were very friendly and funny. Sebastian also helped translate things into English for me. They were both kind. Also got to get close to emus, goats, deer and donkey. Plus lions climbed on our cage and it was so cool! Cons- it was a very sad zoo. A lot of the animals have been rescued and so they are stressed and traumatised. You can see this by their behaviour they exhibit. Also the enclosures are rather small in my opinion. Very muddy- I would recommend bringing good shoes!

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for sharing your experience!

    Safari Park, Wild Experience: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santiago.

    How much does Safari Park, Wild Experience cost?

    +

    Prices start at $111 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Santiago usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Safari Park, Wild Experience take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Santiago is not rushed.

    Is Safari Park, Wild Experience worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 89 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 824 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Santiago, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Safari Park, Wild Experience?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Safari Park, Wild Experience suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Safari Park, Wild Experience?

    +

    Around 288 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Santiago can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Santiago and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Safari Park, Wild Experience start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Santiago within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Santiago?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Santiago experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Maipo Valley Wine Region: 4 Wineries, Tastings & Foodie Tour, Valparaiso Port and Viña del Mar with Casablanca Wine Tasting, Tour to Valparaíso, Viña del Mar, Pablo Neruda Museum and Vineyard. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Santiago?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Santiago?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Safari Park, Wild Experience?

    +

    Included: Ticket valid for Kayak, Trampoline, Zipline or Simulator (one option); Preferential access to the park; Bilingual guide; In-vehicle air conditioning; and General Entrance Big Cat Safari Park, Herbivore Safari and Expeditions. Not included: Gratuities; and Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Safari Park, Wild Experience?

    +

    Diego de Velásquez Street 2131, Providencia. Next to Los Leones Metro station. Find your guide dressed in a red jacket. Arrive 15 minutes before departure time. Exclusive transportation for the group round trip. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Safari Park, Wild Experience offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese, English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Safari Park, Wild Experience wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Safari Park, Wild Experience if the weather is bad?

    +
