PORT CLINTON, Ohio, March 20, 2023 — African Safari Wildlife Park is preparing to open the gates for its 55th season, which begins on Saturday, March 25.

“Early spring is a great time to visit the Park because most of our animals are totally unbothered by the chilly-to-mild weather,” said Park director Kelsey Keller. “You may even be lucky enough to witness the birth of a deer or alpaca!”

The Park’s ever-popular Drive-Thru Safari, which features zebras, bison, llamas, alpacas, elk, exotic cattle, emus and more, will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. with the last car admitted at 4 p.m. The Park’s warm-weather animals, such as giraffe and antelope, will generally not be visible unless the air temperature is above 60 degrees. The Walk-Thru Safari, which features gibbons, lemurs, kangaroos, warthogs, parrots, camel rides, educational animal shows and animal-feeding experiences, will open in mid-May.

To celebrate opening day, the Park is offering general admission tickets for $16.95—a savings of up to $13 per person—that can be used anytime during the 2023 season. This promotional price, which is available through March 28, can only be purchased online at www.africansafariwildlifepark.com and is not available at the gate.
