On the Wild Side!
This tour is for true wildlife lovers! Our journey begins with a visit to the Mirage Hotel and Casino, one of the premier resorts on the Las Vegas Strip. At the Mirage, you will visit the “Secret Garden of Siegfried and Roy” and the “Dolphin Habitat”.
“The Secret Garden” puts you face to face with some of Siegfried and Roy’s most precious animals in an exotic jungle setting. You will meet snow white tigers, white lions and snow leopards. After your trip through the jungle, it is off to the “Dolphin Habitat” where you will enjoy the Mirage’s family of Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins. A guided tour will help you better understand and enjoy these truly remarkable animals.
The newest wildlife attraction in Las Vegas is the incredible Shark Reef. The Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay will offer you a close-up look at aquatic life and rare reptiles ranging from 13 species of sharks to rare golden crocodiles. The five golden crocodiles - among only 12 known to exist - were destined to end up as wallets and belts until they were discovered in Bangkok, Thailand by curators gathering species from around the world. The project includes 75 different species of sharks, tropical and fresh water fish, reptiles, marine invertebrates and rays. The project, two years in the making, is expected to expand to 100 species, with more than 3,500 animals on display. The facility covers more than 105,000 square feet and holds almost 2 million gallons of
seawater.
