Frequently Asked Questions
Wild Safari Drive-Thru
Six Flags takes you on a self-guided journey (in the safety and privacy of your own car) through 1,200 exotic animals from six continents! You’ll slowly drive through 11 simulated natural habitats seeing animals such as giraffes, rhinos, bears, elephants, tigers, lions, baboons and more!
Animals roam freely in most sections of the safari and can venture right up to your car. All predators are safely kept behind fences but are clearly visible from your car windows.
Safety is our No. 1 priority! Remember that our animals always have the right of way, keep a safe distance between your vehicle and other vehicles, and be sure to yield to our animals. You must keep all windows, sunroofs and doors closed at all times. There is no feeding or petting of our animals. Although they may look docile, these are untrained, wild animals. Do not exit the vehicle for any reason. Any guest who violates our code of conduct will be escorted from the safari without a refund and may be prosecuted. A full list of rules is available below.
At Six Flags, safety is our top priority. Our team has worked tirelessly to develop new safety plans that protect both our team members and our guests.
Six Flags Wild Safari Drive-Thru Adventure is designed to be contact free. Advance reservations are required and tickets must be purchased online, which we can scan through the car glass to limit contact with our guests. By requiring advance reservations, we can regulate the amount of cars visiting the safari each day to ensure proper social distancing and eliminate overcrowding. Reservations allow us to space vehicle arrivals throughout the day.
As a safety precaution, all of our employees will be temperature and health screened each day, and wear masks and gloves where appropriate.
Per current state regulations, no additional services are available. We encourage guests to plan accordingly for restroom breaks, gasoline, and food. Only portable toilets will be available at the entrance and exit.
We will operate daily from 9 am to 4 pm beginning May 30, weather permitting.
We will offer a special preview to our Active Members, Season Pass holders, and employees on May 29, prior to the general public. Reservations will be required for our Members and Season Pass holders for the preview. All guests must make a reservation for the safari beginning May 30.
First, tickets are required. If you are an active Member or Season Pass holder, you already have a ticket number. If you are a single-day guest, paused Member, or employee, you must first purchase a ticket online.
Once you have your ticket or pass number, you will log onto our new reservation site at www.sixflags.com/reserve-safari. Choose a date from the calendar that is available for your ticket type. Enter the required information. When you have completed the registration, you will receive a confirmation. Please print this confirmation sheet if possible. A printed sheet is easier to scan through the car window than a phone screen. We want this experience to be as contact-free as possible.
Ticket sales are for individuals. No group sales are available.
