Badoca Safari Park

About

Badoca Safari Park, situated in the heart of Alentejo Portugal, offers a uniquely immersive African safari experience just an hour’s drive from Lisbon. The park welcomes families, couples, and solo travelers alike, providing guided walks, animal presentations, and a variety of adventure activities such as African rafting and lemur interactions. In addition to the main safari trail, guests can explore themed areas—including giraffe enclosures, a reptile show, and a tropical forest walk—each bringing the wild closer to visitors. The park’s glamping accommodations combine rustic charm with daily safari support, taking guests on a full day of exploration and wildlife encounters. Visitors start their day with a guided safari ride that showcases giraffes, zebras, and other wildlife. Following the safari, themed presentations—such as the lemur show, falconry demonstration, and reptile showcase—offer intimate insights into the animals’ natural behaviours. For those seeking a more relaxed pace, a light pedestrian stroll or a picnic in the savannah provides a tranquil setting for reflection and wildlife observation. Beyond the park, guests can indulge in local cuisine at the self‑service restaurant, enjoy a refreshing drink at the snack kiosk, or explore the surrounding Alentejo countryside. All features are designed to be accessible, educational, and memorable, making Badoca Safari Park a must‑visit destination for anyone interested in nature and adventure. With daily operating hours from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm, this park welcomes visitors year‑round, with a slightly earlier closing time of 3:30 pm after October 26 to accommodate the latest operational schedule. The experience is truly family‑friendly, offering hands‑on activities that are both entertaining and informative for all ages.
