Description

Ever dreamed of what it?s like to run a zoo?or better yet, help shape its future? This is your chance to go behind the scenes of Roger Williams Park Zoo like never before, on an unforgettable VIP tour led personally by Executive Director Stacey Johnson, a passionate leader with deep roots in animal care?and a former zookeeper himself!

You and three guests will hop aboard a golf cart for an insider?s journey through the Zoo?s most beloved exhibits. As you visit spaces like Faces of the Rainforest, the Textron Elephant & Giraffe Pavilion, and World of Adaptations, Stacey will share fascinating stories, behind-the-scenes insights, and what it takes to lead Rhode Island?s largest outdoor attraction.

After the tour, enjoy a private on-site lunch with Stacey where you?ll learn about the Zoo?s rich history, animal conservation efforts, and bold plans for the future. This isn?t your average lunch?it?s a chance to sit down with someone who?s spent his career making a difference for animals, and who?s helping shape the next chapter of the Zoo.

Whether you're a lifelong animal lover, a Zoo superfan, or just curious about what happens beyond the exhibits, this once-in-a-lifetime experience is not to be missed.
