African Lion Safari 2026 Season Passport
A three-visit seasonal decision with meaningful food and shop discounts—and a long drive for much of the GTA.
The short answer
Three peak-season visits make the cleanest case.
Three peak gate visits total $161.85 for an adult and $119.85 for a child, both above the regular passport prices. Two peak visits remain below both passport prices before any food or shop savings.
Buy only when the family can realistically make three visits during the 2026 operating season. For west-GTA households the drive may be manageable; from Toronto, travel time can erase otherwise attractive math.
Individual pricing
The adult pass wins more clearly than the child pass on visit three.
$41.90 above the regular passport
$9.90 above the regular passport
Adult / child
Early- and late-season gate admission is lower, so families planning mostly shoulder-season visits should re-run the math rather than assuming the same threshold.
A one-day admission may be upgraded only on the day of the visit with the original receipt, which is useful when the first experience confirms a likely return.
Season benefits
The extras matter if the family stays for a full day.
Unlimited 2026 admission
The passport covers the operating season, including the drive-through reserves and included park attractions available that day.
20% food discount
Passport holders receive 20% off food and non-alcoholic beverages at on-site food locations.
20% shop discount
The same published discount applies to eligible on-site gift-shop merchandise.
Season friction
A seasonal passport still has capacity and timing limits.
No separate passholder lane
Passport holders use the regular entrance flow and may still encounter peak-day queues.
Non-transferable and non-refundable
Each passport needs a photo and belongs to one named visitor.
Cold-weather visibility
The attraction notes that some species may not be displayed during colder periods.
