Giant Otter VIP Experience
£99 per person
Our giant otters, Inny and Gordito, have made a name for themselves as a mischievous and noisy pair. Perfect company for a morning feeding experience! Your keeper will introduce you to them in their aquatic habitat where you’ll have an opportunity to watch them play in the water, before moving around to their feeding area and getting hands on.
Although our giant otters are fed fish, wild giant otters are known to tackle some of the most fearsome and infamous Amazonian creatures including caiman, anacondas and even piranhas!
Includes
- An unrivalled feeding encounter with the giant otters.
- The company, knowledge and experience of a dedicated keeper.
- A Longleat Day Ticket. Enjoy the park for the full day of your visit.
- A souvenir Guide Book and VIP lanyard (per person).
- 10% discount at our cafes, restaurants and shops on the day of your visit.

Regrettably, some people will be unable to take part in some experiences including individuals with relevant phobias, known allergies, pregnant people and those who are immunocompromised. While every effort is made to accommodate people with disabilities, wheelchair access is not always available due to heritage elements of the site or the terrain in which the experience takes place.
Most of our experiences require a certain level of physical activity. If you wish to book an experience and you or the person you care for has accessibility needs, please contact us first so we can ensure the best fit to meet your needs. Where an experience is possible, an essential companion accredited via an Access Card is welcome to attend for support but will not take part in the experience. If an essential companion would like to take part, a ticket must be purchased.
If you have any specific medical needs or an allergy, please contact us prior to booking.
Most of our experiences have a minimum age requirement. Please adhere to these. Participating children up to, and including, the age of 15 must be accompanied by an adult who also has a VIP booking.
Some of our experiences take place early in the morning; please ensure you have considered time for arrival, parking, comfort breaks and getting to your Meeting Point in your planning. You must arrive at your Meeting Point at least 15 minutes in advance of your experience time.
If you have a VIP Gift Voucher and would like to book the date of your experience, this can be done online or via our team on 01985 844400.
