Lake Tobias Wildlife Park

I have been to Lake Tobias quite a few times and every experience was easy to enjoy. The Safari is an awesome ride where you can get the closest to the wild animals you can get anywhere around here. Some of the animals walk straight up to the buses to get food and visit, so you wanna remember to buy food! They also have a petting zoo behind the concession stand that little kids really enjoy. I highly recommend this to anybody who wants to have an inexpensive, fun day. more

We recently took our 3 year old to Lake Tobias to go on the safari that had been recommended to us by friends. He had a blast getting up close and personal with the animals. Also the have a small zoo type area together with a petting zoo. You can purchase food to feed the animals out of your hand. It was a wonderful inexpensive experience. We are going to take him back there again. Oh they have a small food stand together with a picnic area. more

Follow Route 225 north of Halifax to Lake Tobias Wildlife Park, and you'll find yourself in every child's heaven. The park has a nominal admission to the park, then an additional fee for the safari. You cannot go to Lake Tobias without going on safari! Be sure to buy crackers or popcorn from the concession stand before getting on the bus. The safari vehicles are modified school buses - no windows or roof! This allows you to get up close and personal with the wildlife. Don't forget your camera! After the safari, head to the barnyard petting zoo. The goats and sheep are waiting for you. The reptile house puts on shows periodically throughout the day. Numerous exhibits are located throughout the park with a myriad of animals. Near the main entrance is a bear! http://www.laketobias.com/ more
