An Apollonaut travel guide
A thoughtful way to visit.
Care begins with understanding the place you are visiting and being precise about the part you play.

Our part in the visit
Apollonaut sells tickets and provides booking support. Lone Pine cares for its animals and runs its own wildlife work, and our role gives us no part in that work.
Lone Pine says donations made to it are used for the animals in its care, wildlife research, conservation and, in some cases, other not-for-profit organisations. That work belongs to the sanctuary; this page sets out a modest starting point for our own part: useful information, respect for the animals and honesty about what our service can substantiate.
Small decisions, made with care
Before travelling, read the current visitor guidance. During a visit, walk calmly in the free-range areas, never hold or chase the animals, keep hands and objects out of the enclosures and wash your hands after animal contact. The sanctuary is a wildlife corridor, so keep to the paths.
These are suggestions for considerate visiting. They are not evidence that buying a ticket through Apollonaut funds conservation or reduces a trip’s environmental impact.
How we would report a future programme
If we support a conservation, community or environmental programme in future, this page will say what it is for, who runs it, how long it lasts and what evidence shows its results, including anything that is still uncertain.
Today we have no conservation programme, donation scheme, carbon calculation or environmental certification to announce, so we do not claim one.
