Boomerang’s So Funny Safari – Johannesburg Zoo

This summer, families all over the city of gold, will have the opportunity to celebrate their summer holidays with a first of its kind, ‘So Funny Safari’.

Visiting the zoo is the perfect way to spend a day together as a family.

My daughter loves animals and a trip to the zoo is always exciting with her.

The Zoo allows children to explore their environment and make new discoveries. It sparks curiosity and even encourages exercising. I have never seen my daughter walk so much before but at the zoo she did it because she was determined to learn!

The last time we visited the Johannesburg Zoo, I was heavily pregnant with Kiaan. It was a hectic long walk for me but I did it because seeing my daughter’s smile was worth it.

From 18 December until 17 January, Boomerang would like to invite families who are staying or visiting Johannesburg to take a family trip to the Johannesburg Zoo and jump on the ‘So Funny Safari’ tractor. In true Boomerang spirit, they will be whisked away on a magical African safari adventure, where they will get the opportunity to visit all their favourite furry friends, as well as their counterparts such as Tom & jerry, Garfield, Scooby-Doo, Pink Panther and the ever-feisty Tazmanian Devil.

When I heard about this event, I was thrilled! My nephew who is visiting loves Boomerang and my daughter loves the Zoo. This would be the perfect treat for them.

Kids should get ready to jump onto the exciting ‘So Funny Safari’ tractor, which will take them along an adventurous trail where they will meet their favourite Boomerang characters, who will introduce them to some exotic and wild animal creatures. These very special edu-taining adventures will take-off daily from the ‘So Funny Safari’ pick-up zone at 10h00, 12h00 and 14h00.

Lots of exhilarating fun will be had as visitors are bound to have fun, visiting 6 different enclosures where a few of the zoo’s most favourite animals, will be paired up with a Boomerang furry friend. They will also be able to learn some pretty interesting facts about these very special wildlife creatures in a fun and relaxing family environment.

Providing great family entertainment is core to the Boomerang brand. Moving children away from the television and extending itself to the outdoors, the channel will be supporting animal conservation through a fun lens, by associating its famous cartoon stars with wildlife.

So get the family together, hop on the Gautrain and visit the Johannesburg Zoo for a day filled with adventure! It is also an opportunity for you to finally spend some quality time with all your furry friends! 😉

Entrance fees to the Zoo are R 75 for adults and R 46 for children (3-12 years).
