Quick overview of Safari Mallorca
- Ways to experience: Take the shared safari train or drive the 3-km loop in your own car.
- Additional access: Both include the pedestrian park, and you can add the paid VR experience to experience The Last Frontier. Nearby resorts also have a free operator shuttle.
- Unique experiences: The train has fixed departures and commentary, while self-drive gives private pacing on the same 3-km route.
- When to book: Book ahead if you want a specific train departure or the VR add-on, since both can have limited places.
- Good to know: Train riders must arrive 15 minutes early. Self-drive visitors pay a separate vehicle surcharge and must keep windows closed in safari areas.
- Best upgrade: Choose self-drive for privacy and flexible pacing, or add VR if you want one more structured activity after the safari loop.
Which Safari Mallorca ticket is best for you?
| Ticket type | What’s included | Why choose this |
|---|---|---|
Guided Train Safari Tour | Shared safari train, fixed departure slot | Simpler if you’re arriving by shuttle or without a car; watch the departure time, as missed trains may not be rebookable. |
Self-Drive Entry With Personal Vehicle Access | Own-vehicle safari circuit, self-paced routing | More privacy and pace control if you already have a car; you’ll trade train scheduling for stricter in-car safari rules. |

Drive-through wildlife circuit
From the boarding area, the open route crosses the park’s 3 km safari zone through African savannah and Asian plains settings. Giraffes, rhinos, hippos, zebras, elands, and sacred baboons are the main sightings on this first circuit.
Primate encounter
In the pedestrian park, this scheduled stop focuses on the crab-eating macaque and works well early in the walking section. It adds a species-specific introduction after the safari loop, before broader themed routes through the zoo areas.
Global primate route
This themed route groups primate species in the walkable section and shifts the visit from open safari viewing to closer observation. It works as a mid-visit detour, with interpretive stops that connect different monkey and ape habitats.
Animal adaptation route
Set within the pedestrian zone, this route focuses on how different species adapt across habitats and body types. It fits best after the main safari circuit, adding a slower, signage-led section before rest stops or the optional VR area.
Elephant care session
Near the elephant habitat in the walkable park, this scheduled session centers on enrichment rather than a general pass-by viewing. It suits the later part of the visit, when visitors move from broad safari sightings to focused keeper-led observation.
Elephant welfare demonstration
Also in the pedestrian section, this activity follows the elephant area and presents structured veterinary training rather than performance. It is a useful stop after the safari loop if you want a more operations-focused view of daily animal care.
Virtual reality experience
Inside the park, this separate paid activity sits outside the live-animal route and works best as a short add-on after the walking section. Capacity is limited, so it functions more like a final detour than a core circuit.
Things to know before booking your Safari Mallorca tickets
Booking Window
- Guided Train Safari: Check the train departure time on your ticket and arrive at least 15 minutes before departure. Seats are limited, and missed departures may not be rebookable.
- Self-Drive Entry: Choose this option if you want to explore the 3 km safari route in your own vehicle. A separate vehicle fee applies.
What’s Included
- Guided Train Safari: Ride the Safari Train through the 3 km safari area, where animals including giraffes, rhinos, zebras, gazelles, wildebeests, and other species roam freely. The train ride lasts about 30 minutes.
- Self-Drive Entry: Drive your own vehicle through the 3 km safari route and observe the animals from your car. The vehicle entry fee is charged separately from the admission ticket.
Entrances & Flow
- Guided Train Safari: You can reach Safari Mallorca by car or via the free Safari Bus Service from several coastal stops. The bus arrival time is not your safari start time, so follow the train departure time printed on your ticket.
- Self-Drive Entry: Drive directly to Safari Mallorca and enter with your own vehicle. The safari route is completed from inside the vehicle.
Ways to Explore
- Safari Mallorca offers two ways to experience its 3 km safari route. Choose the Guided Train Safari for a ride through the safari area without driving, or choose Self-Drive Entry if you prefer to explore the route in your own vehicle.
Policies & Rules
- Guided Train Safari: Arrive at least 15 minutes before your scheduled train departure. Do not put your hands outside the train or feed the animals.
- Self-Drive Entry: Stay inside your vehicle throughout the safari area, keep the windows closed, and do not feed or touch the animals. Convertibles, caravans, and vehicles with items that could be stolen from the exterior are not permitted.
Highlights of your Safari Mallorca experience
Across the safari plains
From the safari circuit, the landscape opens wide and low, with stretches designed to evoke African savannah and Asian plains. Herds spread across the plain instead of gathering at one fence, so the scene keeps shifting as striped backs, horns, and long necks move through the frame.
Plan your Safari Mallorca experience
- Location: Safari Mallorca sits near Sa Coma on Mallorca’s east coast.
- Address: Carretera Porto Cristo km 5, 07530 Sant Llorenç des Cardassar, Mallorca, Spain | Find on Google Maps
Getting there:
- Free shuttle: Operator buses run from S’Illot, Sa Coma, Cala Millor, and Cala Bona.
- Public transport: Parada Av. Sa coma (51012) sits about 15 minutes away on foot.
- By car: On-site parking is available; driving takes about 10 minutes from Sa Coma or Cala Millor.
- Physical effort: Effort stays low on the train, then shifts to moderate walking.

- Heat planning: Midday summer sun feels strongest; early or late visits suit longer walks.
- Vehicle rules: Self-drive access excludes convertibles and caravans on the safari circuit.
- Restrooms: Toilets are available inside the park.
- Food & drink: The cafeteria serves simple meals, snacks, drinks, and ice cream.
- Ordering flow: Peak lunch periods can slow service, especially with QR-code ordering.
- Break areas: Shaded picnic spots offer a better pause for packed snacks.

- Shopping: The exit-area gift shop stocks safari toys, keepsakes, and souvenirs.

- Hydration: A refillable water bottle helps during hotter midday hours.

- Cameras: Phones and cameras work well, but arms should stay inside the train.

- Car access: Current safety rules do not allow leaving the car in safari zones.
- Window rule: Car windows stay closed throughout the safari, especially near baboons.
- Missed departures: Missed train slots may not move automatically to the next circuit.
Tips to visit Safari Mallorca

- Bring a hat, sunscreen, and water, especially in summer. Some parts of the safari and walking areas have limited shade.
- Keep your hands, phones, and cameras inside the train or vehicle during the safari. Avoid tapping on windows or making loud noises around the animals.
