Our Mission
Our mission at Parc Safari is to offer visitors an
enchanting recreational site where discoveries
and adventures create special memories for
the entire family. One of our goals is to
preserve the animals’ quality of life, to
contribute to the conservation of
endangered species’ genetic heritage,
and to sensitize visitors to nature’s
fragile balance. Starting last year, the
Friends of Parc Safari Foundation began
developing partnerships and programs to
consolidate the zoological mission of
Parc Safari.
This year, we are expecting the birth
of over 100 animals. In addition, we
proudly present our Feline Tunnel, an
exceptional nature discovery trail where
visitors can observe lions and tigers up
close. The Deer Trail, which recreates
almost exactly our magnificent Cervidae’s
natural environment, is another exciting
area of the Parc.
A variety of activities
Parc Safari is the largest theme park of its kind in the
Montérégie region. In the summer, our zoological
park transforms into an African landscape thanks
to our large group of African animal species. Come
and admire a spectacular wildlife including 800
animals from the five continents, many of which you
can approach and feed. Observe and pet elephants,
rhinos, giraffes, zebras, lions, macaques, chimpanzees,
white tigers and many others.
Spend all day discovering our five different theme parks,
presenting the main animal wildlife groups: the
Adventure Safari,
the Wildlife Observatory, the
Deer Trail and the Feline Tunnel.
Also,
come and get your thrills at our Wild Rides amusement park.
with beautiful beaches. To Complete your fun-filled day,
let us entertain you with a variety of daily shows and activities.
History
Since its creation in 1972, Parc Safari’s mission has been, above all, that of
a large natural park with a zoological focus. Since then, we
have built new infrastructures and created theme parks
to offer visitors an unforgettable recreational experience.
Since April 2002, a new administration has been
working on constantly improving our site, making it
more attractive and welcoming to our visitors.
More than 10 million dollars have recently
been invested in this wonderful tourist site for
the development of large-scale projects.
Over the past 30 years, Parc Safari has welcomed
over 10 million visitors of all ages, including
about one million American tourists. The
Parc hires 400 seasonal employees, which
makes it one of the region’s main employers.
Every year, we initiate hundreds of young
people into the job market and customer service.
