Experience article - Taman Safari Bogor - Indonesia by Indonesia. 3 September 2007. Taman Safari or Safari park












The wildlife conservation is located in Cibeureum village, Cisarua. Taman Safari Foundation owns the land in Taman Safari, which is also the management of the tourism object. Facilities in Taman Safari are bus, artificial lake, water cycling, canoe, swimming pool, mini train to see African style village, Bird Park, go cart, children playground, windmill, circus, merry-go-round etc.
Animals from all continents roam freely in this 35-hectare park, 75-km southeast of Jakarta along the Jakarta-Bandung route. Among the animals kept here are some comparatively rare species such as anoas, rhinos, giraffes, white tigers and European, American and Asian bears. Adjacent to the park is recreational grounds with a swimming pool, tennis courts, an artificial lake, waterfall and children's playground and amusement park. There are also restaurants and cafeterias.
Taman safari is a drive through zoo and amusement park and is open every day. On the way from Bandung to Taman Safari we have to pass Puncak, do not try to do this on Sunday or public holiday because we can end up in a big traffic jam, because Puncak is a very popular spot for people from Jakarta. Normally, it take 3,5 hours from Bandung to get to Taman Safari.






by car By car or taxi Take the Jagorawi toll road. Take the Ciawi exit, and head towards Puncak.When you reach the junction of Jalan Raya Puncak and Jalan Taman Safari which is well signposted-turn right. The trip takes ± 60 minutes. From Bandung, head toward Jakarta via Puncak Pass road.Turn left at the Safari junction. The trip takes ± 180 minutes.












We were enjoying the trip very much and the best part was taking a picture while holding a baby of tiger, lion and orang utan...fantastic!! Tips do not visit on sunday or public holiday too crowded you will not enjoying and able to see all the animal and activities.
