We left Zoocobia Fun Zoo
at around 3 pm. By the time we got to Zoobic Night Safari, it was
already dusk and the eerie facade of Zoobic Safari greeted all of us.
Aahhwwooooooo….
The very first time we’ve gone on a Night Safari tour was in Singapore back in 2005. I had a lot of fun at the Singapore Night Safari
that time which added to my excitement about the fact that I’m one of
the lucky few to experience Zoobic’s version of a night safari.
When
we went inside, Peter and I didn’t know where to go. There were no
instructions given so we just waited together with some of the people
in our group. Half an hour later, one of Zoobic Safari’s tour guides
went in front and did an orientation about what’s up ahead for all of
us that night.
And then our Zoobic Night Safari tour began…
Zooper Train
White Tiger
Zoobic Safari has the only white tiger in the Philippines.
Serpentarium
Rodent World
This
one’s pretty freaky. On our way to the Rodent World, we saw a lot of
little white mice running around in the forest grounds.
Then
before we proceeded to the area where the collection of small and big
rodents were stationed, we got pleasantly spooked by the Mice Surprise.
So fun! So perfect for the Halloween season.
Close Encounter
Peter and I already did this before, during our very first trip to Zoobic Safari in 2004 (or was it 2005? …I forget) At
that time, we did the close encounter tour during the day and the
Siberian and Bengal tigers were very fierce then. This time, because it
happened at night, it proved to be more scary.
Fortunately,
the tigers already seemed satiated, perhaps, from all the chickens
they already ate during the day. It took a while before one of the
tigers did take our chicken bait. It was still very scary.
Greyhound Walk
I
am scared of big dogs. So by the time we got to the site where the
greyhounds were, I was already very, very spooked and scared. Yuri, one
of the bloggers, took a dog with him while I stayed close to Peter.
Nothing much happened, thank God! But one of the dogs in our group did
poop a lot as we were walking the rolling paths of the forest that
night.
Aeta’s Trail
We got a glimpse of the Aetas’ music and dance. Wow! These men have rock hard abs and limbs so flexible!
They
did a monkey dance that made me think twice if they were indeed
monkeys (LOL!) and they climbed a tall tree as if it’s the easiest
thing in the world. Amazing!
Croco Loco
A
hundred crocodiles greeted us as we entered their kingdom. Someone was
trying to feed them and the way the crocodiles snapped their snouts
was just too freaky for me.
Forbidden Cave
This
is where they display all those animals that have died through the
years. They turn them into real stuffed animals. How cool is that!
But
don’t be so complacent when you get inside coz there are a few animals
here which are real and alive. So be careful! Or else!
Our tour ended before 10 pm. We had dinner at Buho Grill where you can enjoy delectable grilled dishes in a safari ambiance.
Afterward, we watched a show the whole Zoobic Safari crew prepared for their guests. It was awesome!
We got home a little before 3 am the next day… tired but very happy about our Zoocobia and Zoobic Night Safari trip. ^_^
