Educational Tours

Option #1 – Visit the Sanctuary

While at Crown Ridge Tiger Sanctuary your children will get to experience the sanctuary in a variety of ways, while learning at the same time! Included in the 2 hour tour is an educational presentation with video and tiger artifacts, the chance to make a piece of enrichment for our cats and a few educational games to play. Where else do your children get the chance to see a tiger up close, hear a lioness roar and make some enrichment for a big cat?   Our goal is that your children come away with a new appreciation for tigers and lions and a better understanding of the threats they face in the United States and in the wild.  Restrooms are available throughout the grounds and a covered pavilion is also available and time can be included for lunch.        

Cost: $9 per child, $8 with significant donation from our wish list (see below for details)
