At Colchester Zoo, you can get access to an unprecedented range of animals. They have an unusual setup, in that you can choose to shadow a keeper for close access to the animals, or take part in the 'perfect partners' or wild encounters packages. They are also one of the only zoos to offer a choice of animals on their zookeeper for a day experiences.

The Wild Encounter is a half day experience for two with the opportunity to meet, stroke or feed a whole range of species, including aardvarks, tigers, giraffes, penguins, lemurs and meerkats.
