Visiting Longleat Safari Park by Coach in 2022

Updated: May 5, 2022

Longleat Safari Park is one of the favourite coach group destinations for schools, tours, and private groups. The Park is a 900-acre parkland located in South West England. The park first opened in 1966 and was the first safari drive-through to be opened outside of Africa. Over the year's Longleat has grown to be the UK's best safari Park not only because of their amazing animal collection but because of their fun family orientated exhibitions and live events.
