Exotic Explorers

When researching ideas for my animal-loving 9yo daughter’s birthday party, I came across the Exotic Explorers website. Everything about a party hosted by them sounded amazing - educational, interesting and fun! I had high hopes for the party, and it certainly did not disappoint. Ben and Hannah arrived on time, set up quickly and were wonderful and professional from the start. The range of animals we had picked (in consultation with Puri) was an ideal selection. The children were able to take turns (where appropriate and if they wanted) to hold the animals, and they all learned so much about each species. The animals are clearly very well looked after and Ben and Hannah were so knowledgeable. The children didn’t want the party to end but will always have their souvenir keyring and certificates to remember the fun they had! We wouldn’t hesitate to rebook with Exotic Explorers!

We had the most brilliant afternoon for our daughters 14th birthday getting to handle all the amazing animals. There was lots animals to choose from which was great. The team arrived on time and were so lovely and knowledgeable telling us about each animal. We got lots of time with each one as well and was all round an amazing experience for everyone.Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking again! Thank you so much for an amazing experience.

Puri and her team came to visit our church today to show the children a few of their lovely animals. The children were so engaged. The staff were really good! Enthusiastic. Fun. Incredibly knowledgeable. It was so interesting. Highly recommend them!

My son had his 9th birthday and what a party it was! Nathan and Heidi were beyond brilliant with all the children and Puri was excellent with all the comms and organising. Thank you for a magical birthday and one we definitely won’t forget!!

Puri and Ben gave my 6 year old daughter a fantastic birthday party today. Communication from the initial enquiry right through to the party itself was excellent and they were hugely professional and knowledgeable about the animals they brought. The animals themselves were relaxed, friendly and obviously well cared for, and Ben and Puri were great if any reassurance was needed about handling (though there was absolutely no pressure if children didn't want to touch particular animals). I cannot recommend enough and we all had a brilliant time!

Exotic explorers did a party for my son with special needs. They couldn’t have been more accommodating and kind. They were so caring and inclusive with all of the children allowing them time to touch and stroke the different animals. Puri was amazing!I would definitely recommend and will be using them again for future parties :)

I chose to do a VIP experience for my 16th birthday. I'm a huge reptile lover and I got to handle 5 different reptiles, it was absolutely amazing. It has been my dream to hold a giant snake so we asked for the Burmese Python and Boa Constrictor they were really cool. Ben and Puri were very nice and knew so much about the animals it's was lovely to talk to them about all the reptiles and learn about their experiences with animals. They even let me and my family feed the Giant Gecko. They were so amazing that I would like to have them back next year for my 17th.

If you are looking for an unforgettable and unique birthday party experience, I can highly recommend Exotic Explorers.Julie and Hannah were highly knowledgeable, approachable, patient and friendly. The party was well structured, run smoothly and animals very well handled and relaxed. I would also love to praise the care that was taken to make them as comfortable as possible during the party - it was great to see all animals chilled and happy.Puri was very helpful and advised us on the right animals for the age group. (4-7yo). The booking and payment process were easy.Children (and parents!) were mesmerised and loved it.

I highly recommend Exotic Explorers - they were easy to book, answered all my questions about how the party would work and the children (aged 3-8) all loved having the opportunity to observe at close range and handle the animals whilst learning all about them. Everything was fun, informative and very professionally delivered, I feel very grateful to have had the opportunity to meet Puri and the wonderful animals.

A must for any animal lover! Great communication and booking process before hand, Puri helped me select the most suitable animals for my Son's birthday and age. Great set up in the garden, and think the adults loved meeting the animals as much as the kids! It wasnt rushed, everyone had a chance to meet the animals. Puri and Ben were so friendly and knowledgeable... Will definitely book again! A massive thank you!
