To start, kids embark on an interactive zoo tour to learn about different species, how to responsibly interact with wildlife, the importance of wildlife in our ecosystem and much more. Broken into groups of three, children 5 and older mimic the real workday of trained caretaking staff through activities like feeding chickens, rabbits, deer, goats and peacocks; and cleaning various animal habitats to learn about diets and behaviors. Lunch is provided for children, as well as snacks and drinks. The kiddos head home with commemorative photos and peacock feathers.
Buenaventura Zoo Family Experience package includes WiFi; breakfast for two adults and two children under 12; one entrance pass to Buenaventura Zoo for two adults and two children; daily activities; and complimentary use of bicycles, and tennis and volleyball courts. Book online and stay through Dec. 15 using promotional code MAJ.
Other on-site amenities at The Buenaventura Golf & Beach Resort include 118 guestrooms, nine restaurants and bars, seven pools, biking trails, a ropes course, a marina, a kids club and more.
