GROVE CITY GUIDED TOUR FIELD GUIDE
Two Ways In: Walk the enclosures, drive the loop at Keystone Safari
Combo Admission includes one all-day Walk‑Thru Experience and one Drive‑Thru Experience at Keystone Safari, a 144‑acre interactive animal and adventure park in Grove City, PA.
Two Ways In: Walk the enclosures, drive the loop at Keystone Safari.
Keystone Safari sprawls across 144 acres just off I‑79 in Grove City, Pennsylvania, offering a compact but immersive encounter with more than 100 animals across roughly 25 species. The Combo Admission pairs an all‑day walk‑thru route—where visitors move among enclosures and encounter macaws, reindeer and giraffes—with a drive‑thru loop that keeps animals in open, expansive habitats while guests remain in their vehicles.

Outing Highlights
A rare-species showcase across 25 species
The walk‑thru portion puts you close to a roster of rare and exotic animals—Barbary lions, spotted hyenas and reticulated giraffes sit alongside reindeer, macaws and Bactrian camels—while the drive‑thru offers views of over 100 animals across roughly 25 species in large open spaces.
Two experiences, one ticket
Combo Admission bundles one all‑day Walk‑Thru Experience with one Drive‑Thru Experience, letting visitors alternate between pedestrian encounters and a vehicle loop through expansive habitats.
Feed options and close encounters
Guests can add a Feed Package—receiving a walk‑thru wristband and a drive‑thru bucket—to interact safely with select animals; only feed provided by Keystone Safari may be offered.
What the day feels like
What the Combo feels like
The day unfolds in two distinct rhythms: a pedestrian circuit of enclosed habitats where you can stroll, linger and watch macaws and camels at eye level, followed by a slow, regulated drive along the safari road where animals occupy broad pastures. The drive‑thru enforces strict vehicle rules to keep both guests and animals safe, and the Feed Package concentrates interaction to controlled moments.

Details to review before reserving
Consider a Feed Package if you want supervised feeding: it provides a walk‑thru wristband and a drive‑thru bucket. Bring comfortable footwear for the walk‑thru and a vehicle suited to the drive‑thru rules.
Stay in your vehicle at all times, do not bring outside animals, and note that trailers, buses, RVs, convertibles and soft tops are not permitted; only Keystone Safari feed may be used in animal interactions.
Season pass holders receive walk‑thru benefits and discounted drive‑thru rates when the pass is presented at the park; separate fees apply for guests without individual passes.
