Guided Tours
A guided educational tour through the sanctuary offers guests an up‑close look at the incredible work happening across the facility. Each tour is led by a knowledgeable and experienced tour guide who shares insights about the animals, their stories, and the sanctuary’s mission.
Visitors will encounter numerous species of native wildlife and small exotic animals, learning about their habitats, behaviors, and the rehabilitation or lifelong‑care journeys that brought them to the sanctuary.
To make the experience even more memorable, the tour includes hands‑on, interactive stops where guests can safely engage with select ambassador animals or participate in enrichment activities, all while ensuring the highest standards of animal welfare.
This tour is designed to be educational, immersive, and family‑friendly, giving guests a deeper appreciation for wildlife conservation and the sanctuary’s ongoing efforts.
OTTER SWIMS
The Otter Swim at Sanctuary Hill offers an unforgettable, up‑close encounter with one of our most playful and curious ambassador species. Guests step into a temperature‑controlled pool designed specifically for enrichment, where our otters can safely explore, splash, and interact in a calm, supervised environment.
During your session, you’ll share the water as the otters glide past, pop up beside you, and show off their natural behaviors. Our trained animal care team is present throughout the experience, guiding the interaction, sharing insights about the otters personalities, and ensuring the highest standards of safety and welfare for both guests and animals.
This immersive encounter is more than just fun — it’s educational. You’ll learn about the otters’ personalities and the specialized care they receive at Sanctuary Hill. Every swim directly supports their ongoing enrichment, habitat improvements, and lifelong care.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply seeking a one‑of‑a‑kind adventure, this experience brings you closer to the heart of our mission.
