Children love animals. Touroparc’s animal garden offers them a unique opportunity to feed the giraffes, chimpanzees and hippos on a Prestige tour.
It was a day full of memories for Chloé and Maëlle, aged 4 and 2 respectively. It wasn’t their first visit to Touroparc. But this time, it was for a Prestige visit that they went through the gates of the animal park. Accompanied by a caretaker, they were able to get up close and personal with 4 species during their afternoon snack. After discovering that giant tortoises are not so slow when it comes to being offered a piece of melon, they were able to feed an imposing hippopotamus and some mischievous chimpanzees. The highlight of their visit, however, was a stop at the giraffe enclosure. The two little girls fell under the spell of the big, gentle eyes of a couple and their giraffe, who had come to eat out of their hands. It was a moment they will remember for a long time.
We saw lots of animals. My favourite part was the giraffes, and I got to feed the little giraffe.
