★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 24 reviews · 2 - 7 hours · from $52Best value

Join Bali Zoo’s English-speaking guide and animal-care staff for the Behind Closed Doors evening program. Check in by 3:00 PM for a 4:00 to 6:00 PM tour with close encounters, behind-the-scenes animal-care insights, and refreshments. Optional hotel pickup is available from selected Bali areas.

The zo staff provided a lot of information, either up front or by request in conversations.
