Follow Route 225 north of Halifax to Lake Tobias Wildlife Park, and you'll find yourself in every child's heaven. The park has a nominal admission to the park, then an additional fee for the safari. You cannot go to Lake Tobias without going on safari! Be sure to buy crackers or popcorn from the concession stand before getting on the bus. The safari vehicles are modified school buses - no windows or roof! This allows you to get up close and personal with the wildlife. Don't forget your camera! After the safari, head to the barnyard petting zoo. The goats and sheep are waiting for you. The reptile house puts on shows periodically throughout the day. Numerous exhibits are located throughout the park with a myriad of animals. Near the main entrance is a bear!
