Zoo Atlanta

JOIN US FOR AN EXPLORATION OF ALL THINGS WILD!
From lions to lizards to laughing kookaburras, young explorers will be immersed in hands-on, minds-on learning while having fun! Zoo Atlanta’s Summer Safari Camp is the perfect summer break experience for children ages 5 to 14. Select an individual week that fits in your summer plans, or spend the entire summer with us.

Each week campers embark on a different Zoo expedition, exploring wildlife and wild places. From Marvelous Mimicry to Fantastic Flights, participants will be engaged in ways they can save wildlife and wild places. 

Safari Camp is a great opportunity to engage young explorers in learning about the wild world around them and beginning their journey of conservation stewardship. Through Zoo explorations, up-close animal encounters, STEAM-based projects, hands-on science activities, environmental games and more, campers learn about attainable strategies and goals to combat environmental issues and are charged with finding simple ways that they can make a difference.

While Zoo Atlanta is a great place to discover nature and wildlife, it is also important that campers have a chance to experience wildlife in a more naturalistic setting. Campers and their Educators may travel out to Grant Park (which surrounds the Zoo) to participate in a variety of activities such as nature walks, environmental research, and group team-building games.
