Local tips
- Arrive early to enjoy calmer paths and better photo opportunities before peak crowds.
- Don’t miss the scheduled animal feedings and keeper talks for a closer look at tropical species.
- Bring a light jacket or layer you can remove, as the rainforest domes are warm and humid year-round.
