Knowsley Safari

Knowsley Safari is the top paid-for visitor attraction in the North West, currently home to over 750 incredible animals, from cheeky baboons to the magnificent lion pride. The 5-mile safari drive is the longest in the UK, and the foot safari includes the Amur Tiger Trail.

Passionate about protecting wildlife and their habitats, the dedicated conservation team works on-site and across the world to ensure animals are protected for the benefit of future generations. The learning & discovery team runs well-being programmes in the local community and encourages learning outside the classroom for schools through workshops and guided tours.

As well as all the amazing animals, there are also amusement rides, fabulous face painting, delicious food outlets and play areas to keep the little ones entertained all day long!
