Schools out? Come to Tanganyika for a unique and widely fun, hands-on educational experience that cannot be found in the classroom. Come out and meet Leonard the lemur, Paco the penguin, and many more animals excited to meet you and your family. We are a family-oriented and hands-on wildlife experience. In this blog post, we will show you the best ways to save money, whether buying a season pass is like using a Wichita zoo coupon, or utilizing the different ways of experiencing the park on a budget.
If you are unfamiliar with our park, here are some key details. We are a family-owned wildlife park. We believe in conservation as much as bringing the wild wonders of the world to you. Some of our more well-known experiences include Lemur Island, where you get to experience a ringtailed lemur sitting on your lap, grabbing your hand with its velvety little paws, and taking the snack from your palm. Also, feed the giraffes at our giraffe deck, and you might feel their tongue brush against your hand as they take the lettuce leaf. Experience all these with your family and friends by visiting our park. We guarantee a day that you and your family will remember for the rest of your lives.
Silver and Gold Passes get you access to all the feeding experiencesDiscover the Best Deals with the Tanganyika season pass
After visiting our park, you will want to come back all summer long. Our Tanganyika season pass is a budget-friendly choice to ensure your summer-long enjoyment. We offer three levels for our season passes.
Our most cost-effective pass is the Basic Pass. This level offers unlimited access to the park and splash park all summer, along with various park discounts. For only $24.99, it’s $15 LESS than the cost of admission in 2023, but only if you get it before March 15th.
If you want even more bang for your buck, try our Silver Pass. This pass allows unlimited access to both our park and splash park, five animal feedings per visit, exclusive winter access, entry to Wild Wednesdays, five goat food coupons, and more. You can purchase this pass for $97.99, or if you buy before March 15th, you can set up a monthly payment plan for only $9/month.
Our top tier pass is the Gold Pass which includes unlimited visits, unlimited feedings, winter access, Wild Wednesdays, ten goat food coupons, and more for the Passholder and one guest every visit. There is also a payment plan for this pass available at $22/month if you buy before March 15th. This also includes free visits to other ZAA accredited zoos.
All season passes are on sale right now until Wednesday, March 15. These passes are the best way to enjoy our park on a budget if you plan on visiting all summer long. While you are saving money from purchasing our season passes, consider booking you and your family for one of our Wildly Different Experiences.
You could meet an otter, sloth, porcupine, lemur, and many more in our meet and greets or consider going behind the scenes on our Giraffe and Friends tour, meeting Baby Marjon and his mom, or going on our Origins tour to learn about the start of the park and meet some behind the scenes animals.

Feed Lemurs all summer for as little as /monthOther ways to experience TWP on a budget
We understand that a season pass may not be the most cost-effective method, especially for those coming from out of town. But not to worry, we have methods for saving money without buying a pass, too.
Although we do recommend buying a pass if you plan on visiting more than three times in a season. One of the best ways to experience TWP on a budget is to purchase a ticket beforehand and during the week. Our weekday passes have a 25% Tanganyika discount. It is one of the simplest ways to save money before visiting the park. Just make sure to purchase a ticket for Monday-Thursday.
Another great way to save is by coming on our Wild Wednesdays which happen to be every Wednesday all summer long from 4pm-8pm. If you choose to visit us during that time one child will get in free with a paying adult, so bring the whole family out to enjoy our animal friends, the splash park, and the most important part is making great memories.
Our goal is to make incredible memories that will last a lifetime and encourage a love for animals across all ages. If you plan on spending a whole day at the park, we recommend bringing a picnic lunch. We supply picnic tables all around the park. You could eat a PB&J next to the honey badgers and king vulture or a ham sandwich while watching Grayson, the white tiger play in his habitat.
If you plan on being a frequent flier, we recommend purchasing one of our souvenir cups to get free refills all season long or a popcorn bucket for $2 refills all season long. Think of it like a zoo coupon for your thirsty visitors.
Don’t want to spend the day with a large crowd? We understand. The best times to visit to avoid the hustle and bustle is during the week, afternoons, and Wild Wednesdays. However, no matter what time of day or week, our staff is ready to greet you with a smile and many animal facts that will knock your socks off.
We also offer discounted activities that do not require you to purchase admission to the park, such as the Cub Club story time, which is time for you and your little future zookeeper to meet an animal, read a story, and do a fun activity. It is $5 per child and free for the parents. You get to read a book and meet one of our animal friends. With all the ways to save, come out and experience our amazing park.

Save on Family Fun with Tanganyika’s Wichita Zoo Coupon: Plan Your Visit Now!
We know that was a lot of information, and you cannot wait to book your tickets, but just to recap… The best way to save at our park is to consider one of our three season passes. These are essentially a Wichita zoo coupon that will give you animal-filled fun all summer.
However, if you are only in town for one day, we are honored you are considering our wildlife park. We hope you will consider bringing your lunch and having a picnic in our park or visiting us on a Monday-Thursday when we have discounted tickets and fewer crowds. Want to avoid the heat and the crowds, then visit us on a Wild Wednesday to enjoy an evening feeding the animals and playing at the splash park.
See a young giraffe run through its yard or a mandrill yawn showing off its large teeth. We can promise that everyone will have a blast, even grandpa and grandma. Our family here at Tanganyika starts each day wanting to ensure that everyone visiting the park will be inspired to be stewards of animals and have memories to tell their grandkids about.
So sprint like a cheetah and book your tickets to visit us now! We cannot wait to meet you!
