Skip the lines at the Desert House for a smooth, queue-free journey into this desert oasis. Begin your journey with a refreshing interaction with the nibble fish, which gently nibble on your fingers. A captivating trail then guides you through authentic desert landscapes, taking you from Central America to Madagascar. Along the way, you'll marvel at the Kaiser's spotted newts and the black-tailed rattlesnakes, native to parts of the USA. An eye-catching attraction is the 70-meter-long maze of glass tubes which houses a bustling colony of naked mole rats.
Continue on the trail, lined with lush cacti and succulents, under the soothing sounds of chirping red fodies. Spot rare desert inhabitants like the radiated tortoises and venomous Gila monsters. Take time to appreciate the unusual plant life, including cuttings from the world’s oldest pot plant and living fossils like the bearded lizards and Welwitschia mirabilis. Learn about their amazing adaptation skills to survive in extreme desert conditions.
