This is one of Japan's largest safari parks, where approximately 800 animals from 60 different species, including lions, giraffes, and elephants, live freely in the vast natural environment at the foot of Mount Fuji. The park is divided into two areas: the Safari Zone and the Interaction Zone. The Safari Zone can be toured by car or the park tour bus, while the Interaction Zone can be toured on foot.
When you arrive, you can check in without leaving your car!
When you arrive at Fuji Safari Park, you can go through the admission reception while remaining in your car.

Don't worry about the cold, you can tour the area from the comfort of your own car!
The safari zone, which you can tour by car, is about 4.5 km in circumference. It is divided into seven zones, and you can drive through wild animals such as lions and giraffes living freely. Even in the cold winter temperatures, you can take your time to observe the animals' behavior without worrying about the cold.
You can visit the Safari Zone in your own car as many times as you like during opening hours, so take your time to observe the different behaviors of the animals depending on the time of day!
Winter is the perfect season to view the snow-capped Mount Fuji!
In fact, the winter season from December to February is the season with the highest chance of seeing Mt. Fuji! On a clear day, you can see animals living freely with the majestic snow-capped Mt. Fuji in the background.
A walking and interactive zone!
After returning from the Safari Zone, park your car in the parking lot and head to the Interaction Zone. You can interact with animals such as kangaroos and capybaras, and even feed them.
The interaction zone also has a facility where you can interact with animals in a warm indoor space! In addition to the "Cat House" where you can spend some relaxing time with cats from all over the world, there is also the "Dog House" and "Rabbit House" where you can spend some relaxing time with animals.
*Separate fees apply to the Dog House, Cat House, and Rabbit House (age restrictions apply)
Create memories of your time at the safari park with a bread-making experience!
The "Bread Workshop" is a place where you can easily enjoy the experience of making bread. Once you have formed the dough into your desired shape, you can top it with chocolate chips or dried fruit! The staff will take care of it and bake it in a special oven. It's easy enough that even children can do it, so it's recommended for families.
The bakery also sells "animal bread" made by the staff! It's not only cute but delicious, and is so popular that it often sells out by the afternoon.
