点评:We happened to be in Harare for a couple of days and my brother in law suggested that we visit here. We figured out that we would have a couple of hours as it was getting on in the day. Entrance fee was I think $15 for adults and 10 for children. The guard on the entrance gate was very helpful though he didn't tell us that the shop etc closes from 4pm. He did say the center closes at 5pm.
Well we saw lions, ostriches, a camel, crocodiles, etc and a number of snakes. We handled a snake and the interaction was wonderful and the staffs knowledge was very good. This was such a great experience. Yes the days of zoos and keeping animals in cages is no longer a favorable one and if that bothers you then don't go and then slate it. This was for me and my family an excellent experience which needed a full day in order to experience all that was on offer. When we were leaving the gift shop was closed and I mentioned to the lady and gentleman in the office that it was a shame that we didn't know. Without any bother he took the key and opened the shop up for me. I bought a Rogue safari hat and shall wear it proudly when I get back home to the UK and use it for our 6th heatwave of the year.
I hope that this venue lasts for many years so that many more, young and old will benefit from the experience. Thank you.
翻译:我们恰好在哈拉雷停留了几天,我的姐夫建议我们去这里参观。考虑到当时时间已不早,我们估计自己只有几个小时的参观时间。我记得成人门票是15美元,儿童则是10美元。入口处的守卫非常热心帮忙,不过他没有告诉我们商店等场所下午4点就关门了。他只说了整个园区在下午5点关闭。
我们看到了狮子、鸵鸟、骆驼、鳄鱼等等,还有许多蛇。我们亲手触摸了蛇,这次互动体验棒极了,工作人员也具备丰富的知识。这真是一次很棒的体验。的确,如今那种把动物关在笼子里饲养的做法已不再被推崇了;如果这一点让你感到不适,那还是别去此类地方,也别对它们挑刺了。对我和我的家人来说,这次体验实在出色,我们花了整整一天时间才尽情享受到这里提供的一切。当我们离开时,礼品店已经关门了。我向店里的女士和先生提到,真遗憾我们事先不知道。于是他毫不犹豫地拿出钥匙,为我打开了店门。我买了一顶Rogue牌的探险帽,回到英国的家中后定会骄傲地戴上它,还会在今年的第6次热浪天气里派上用场呢。
我希望这家店能长久经营下去,让更多新老顾客都能享受到这样的体验。谢谢。
