Meet the Meerkats for Two
In a nutshell
- Feed & interact with meerkats
- Explore the rest of the animal centre.
- 7 days a week
Overview
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet a real group of meerkats. You will get up close and personal with these fascinating creatures at a dedicated centre that specialises in their care. You will spend quality time really getting to know the animals as they climb all over you and feed from your hands! Each meerkat has its own individual character that is a joy to discover.
At some locations you will also have the opportunity to explore the rest of the centre at your own leisure.
Once you arrive you will head straight for the meerkat enclosure. After a health and safety briefing, you will need to wash your hands before entering the enclosure. The meerkat specialist will be on hand to give you insightful information and oversee you as you interact with the animals. You will be presented with a small tub of meal worms or fruit to feed the meerkats with.
There will be plenty of opportunities to take photos and videos of this unforgettable experience.
Please note: Some locations may have porcupines in the enclosure as well.

I was bought this for my birthday and took my elderly mother. Staff were very accommodating as her mobility isn't the best. We first went into the enclosure with the 2 hand reared meerkats and had lots of fussing. Then into an indoor enclosure where my mother could sit and feed a mob of them. Staff were very informative and answered all our questions. I would definitely like to go again.

The voucher was a present and great value. We spent an hour with Meerkats, feeding and playing with them. The staff were well informed, and very friendly. Our grandchildren loved it, as we did.

I was given this experience as a birthday present it was very easy to book. We had half an hour feeding them and half an hour cuddling them. After that we had a complimentary drink and was able to have a look around the rest of the farm . I would thoroughly recommend it!

Simply the best Meerkat experience ever. I spent a full hour in their company feeding them(climbing up onto my knee etc), watching them play and then even this was topped by having the alpha male fall ASLEEP in my arms for about 25 mins!!!!!!

This experience was a Christmas gift. I was given the option of location and chose Hoo Farm. At our allotted time, we were taken to one of the Meerkat enclosures which was occupied by two hand reared meerkats. We sat in the enclosure and the meerkats were happy to sit on our laps and run around all over us (and up trouser legs). It was so wonderful to be able to play with them (must remain seated). We were then taken to another enclosure where the wilder meerkats lived. No handling here! We were able to hand feed the meerkats but care should be taken as meerkats have sharp teeth! Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the meerkat experience at Hoo Farm and would happily do it again.
