Perfect Timing

When to visit for the best experience

Spring and summer months offer the best experience as reptiles are most active in warmer weather, typically from May through September. Weekday mornings tend to be less crowded, allowing for a more peaceful and immersive experience with the animals.

Photography Guide

Capture the perfect shots

• Use a camera with a good zoom lens to capture close-up shots of the reptiles from a safe distance

• The golden hour lighting in the early morning or late afternoon creates stunning photos around the outdoor enclosures

• Avoid using flash, as it can stress the animals and produce poor results in the dimly lit indoor areas

Cultural Etiquette

Respect local customs and traditions

French visitors appreciate when guests make an effort with basic greetings – a simple 'bonjour' when entering goes a long way. The park staff are proud educators, so showing genuine interest and asking thoughtful questions is always welcomed and encouraged.
