Returning Educators: New field trip meeting location and program pricing! See FAQ for more.
We apologize for the inconvenience. Please join our WAITLIST to be selected for cancellations. It is best to add date ranges rather than specific dates to increase your chance of being pulled off the waitlist.
Have the following information ready before you submit your Field Trip reservation:
Lab choice(s)
Second credentialed teacher
If you are bringing enough students to require both the AM and PM lab reservations, please list a different credentialed teacher (with their email and cell) for each lab. This ensures there is a credentialed teacher for each lab, and both teachers receive all important communications before and after your field trip.
3-4 potential field trip dates
Cross-reference your school calendar and double-check with your school administration.
Conflicts encountered by teachers in the past: testing, dances, sporting events, holidays, etc.
Transportation type
We highly recommend using the buses and/or vans available through your school/district or parent-driven cars. The cost of charter buses has risen dramatically in the last few years, and if you qualify for our grant funding, the transportation stipend will likely cover only a portion of the cost of a charter bus.
Arrival & departure times
Will your school allow for an 8:45 am ARRIVAL time at the Safari Park? If you must arrive later, consider booking only the PM lab.
Will your school allow for a 2:45 pm or later DEPARTURE time at the Safari Park? If you must depart earlier, consider booking only the AM lab.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR AM/PM lab reservations: You MUST submit a reservation form for BOTH the AM and PM labs if you are hoping to bring up to 80 students in one day. Dates get reserved very quickly, so we recommend you sit side by side with your partner teacher to ensure you grab both the AM and PM slots for the same day.
