Giving the gift of a guided tour arround the animal refuge is a gift that we recommend for people who are visiting us for the first time. They will meet all the animals at the refuge and understand the importance of the Zoo of the Pyrenees in the protection of wild animals.
Notice: The Zoo of the Pyrenees cannot be visited without the accompaniment of an educator. Therefore, the guided tour is the only way to see all the animals living in the refuge.
We recommend combining the guided tour with an activity where the guests come into direct contact with the animals.

Surrounding area of the Zoo of the Pyrenees
The added value of the guided tour is the natural beauty of the surroundings of the Zoo of the Pyrenees. Wild birds, including endangered species, often fly over the refuge. The educator tells the visitors when this happens, making the visit an even more incredible and authentic experience.
