Rio Safari Park Elche

Whilst traveling around the Costa Blanca region this year make sure you take a day out to visit the wonderful Rio Safari Elche, a unique and enjoyable animal park with a ‘train’ ride and some entertaining animal shows to enjoy, including an elephant show a parrot show and a sea lion show. Feeding the animals is allowed, with monkey nuts and carrots for sale in the park shop, and the kids love feeding the giraffes and the hippo especially. You can also take a ride on a camel or a donkey and visit the farm animals section with cows, pigs, goats, horses and sheep. Afterwards why not head into the city of Elche which is especially famous for its palm tree forest, containing hundreds of thousands of palm trees.
