Wake up with Adelaide Zoo's most iconic animals.
Step into the zoo before the crowds and discover a morning like no other. Panda & Friends is an intimate, morning journey through Adelaide Zoo's most serene sanctuary, the Bamboo Forest, where awe-inspiring encounters await. Designed to connect you deeply with nature and the species we strive to protect, this experience offers a rare chance to see some of our most iconic animals in their quietest moments.
Start your adventure by watching the playful Red Panda, Ravi, enjoy his breakfast high in the treetops—a peaceful moment that feels worlds away from the everyday. Then, enjoy a private viewing of Australia's only Giant Pandas, Yi Lan and Xing Qiu, as they bring in the new day to explore and play around their habitat.
At a peaceful point during your experience, you'll enjoy morning tea at the Wisteria Café. Enjoy the chance to relax and take in the surroundings before or after your guided walk through the rest of the zoo. Along the way, you'll meet more remarkable species from around the globe and discover the vital conservation work you're helping to support just by being here.
