Dubai Safari Park is swinging its gates open for visitors on October 14, marking the start of Season 7. Whether you’re spotting elephants, lemurs, or emus, it’s the right place to feel like a little wildlife adventure right in the heart of the city. It’s also one of the few places in town where you can feed a giraffe.
Daily feeding sessions give visitors the chance to interact with the animals, from offering snacks to giraffes to hanging out near elephants. You can stroll around at your own pace or catch the shuttle train looping through all 5 zones if you’d rather save your energy.
Those who want to mix wildlife spotting with a bit of exercise, can have fun at Adventure Valley zone, featuring walking trails, lookout points, and shaded spots to recharge.
Autumn in Dubai is a great time for family outings. And Dubai Safari Park is ideal for immersing yourself in a slice of the wild. If you’re already planning your weekends, here’s more great news: another popular city’s destination, Global Village is also reopening in October 2025 for Season 30 — plenty of surprises await to celebrate this big milestone.
