Nestled at the foothills of the scenic Jebel Hafeet Mountain, this remarkable wildlife destination highlights the incredible diversity of the animal kingdom while actively supporting global conservation. Through partnerships with leading organizations such as the World Conservation Union, the Species Survival Commission, the Sahara Conservation Fund, the Northern Rangelands Trust of Kenya, and Edinburgh Zoo, Al Ain Zoo plays a vital role in protecting endangered species and preserving natural habitats.

What to Expect

A Day with the Captivating Animal World

Al Ain Zoo offers far more than traditional enclosures. With Smart Dubai Tours, guests enjoy a thrilling exploration of over four kilometers of recreated natural habitats. Encounter diverse wildlife up close from mammals and reptiles to exotic bird species in settings designed to reflect their native environments. The zoo’s dedication to conservation, in collaboration with prestigious international organizations, makes every visit both engaging and educational.

Endangered Species and Iconic Residents

Your visit with Smart Dubai Tours allows you to witness rare and endangered species listed on the IUCN Red List, including the Addax, Scimitar oryx, Saker falcon, and Egyptian vulture. The zoo is also home to one of the world’s largest populations of Arabian sand cats and Dama gazelles. Don’t miss its most celebrated residents such as the Rothschild’s giraffe, Western Lowland gorilla, and the lively ring-tailed lemur, each with fascinating survival stories to tell.

Thrilling Wildlife Adventures

The highlight of the zoo is the Al Ain Safari, spanning over 215 hectares and recreating one of Africa’s most legendary ecosystems. Depending on your ticket choice, enjoy a 45-minute truck drive or a 60-minute SUV ride through this vast natural sanctuary. Encounter the iconic “Big Five” and many other native African species roaming freely. Guests can also upgrade their experience with exclusive add-ons such as a lion feeding session, penguin feeding, or the colorful parrot show all curated by Smart Dubai Tours for a seamless adventure.
