We aim to gain long term sustainability for our world's rare and endangered flora and fauna in their natural environment. The Tennessee Safari Park's mission is to create and provide educational activities and environments for the community and abroad to bring appreciation and conservational awareness for all living things.

***Coming soon to the walk through zoo is an immersive sloth exhibit with a stunning waterfall feature.*** Our large gift shop offers a wide variety of souvenirs, gifts, drinks, and snacks. Watch these curious and always on the go creatures enjoying their exhibit as they travel to and fro in an open air tunnel that goes right over guests’ heads! A gem mining sluice is open seasonally for kids of all ages to enjoy.

You can also hand feed the parakeets and some may even land on your hand, arm, shoulder, or even your head! Our squirrel monkey exhibit is another guest favorite.

Some daring guests even hold the carrot in their mouth to feed the giraffe which results in an amazing experience, photo, and usually a slobbery kiss from an 18inch long tongue! Parakeet landing is where you can see free flight parakeets, Australian crested doves, and demoiselle cranes. Our giraffe feeding station allows you to hand feed a giraffe and be sure to take a selfie to capture the moment. If feeding a giraffe is on your bucket list you're in the right place. We offer a petting zoo of adorable and friendly pygmy goats for more hands on fun to enjoy. Our walk through zoo allows you to get out and stretch your legs along 20 acres of additional animal exhibits and encounters. It enriches their daily lives as well as ours.

These animals enjoy free range freedom but can usually be seen choosing to visit with our guests. Some will even block your path to make sure you stop and say “hi”. Why be on the outside looking in like a typical zoo when you can drive right in and join them? As you drive along and explore our drive through safari, animals from every continent but Antartica will come right up to your vehicle windows. Our drive through safari offers the unique experience of close up interactions with exotic animals as well as actually feeding them yourself. The Tennessee Safari Park boasts a 7.5 mile drive through safari and a 20 acre walk through zoo.
