The park is outdoors. In summer, come at opening time or late in the afternoon, with a hat and water.
For their health, please do not feed the animals: all feeding is done by the keeper. The quarantine area and animals seized by the authorities are not open to visitors.
Not quite. La Perle aux Oiseaux is a wildlife refuge: our residents are animals that were injured, seized or can no longer live in the wild, and those that can are released with Morocco’s National Agency for Water and Forests. You visit it like a wildlife park, across 3 hectares and over 100 species, but every ticket pays for their care. Many visitors look for us as “Marrakech zoo”: that’s us, 15 minutes from the centre.
Yes. All visits are by booking only, for the well-being of our recovering animals. Choose your time slot online in under a minute: you receive the confirmation on WhatsApp. Same-day booking is possible up to 2 hours before your time slot.

Yes, and these outings are arranged on quotation rather than booked online: the programme depends on the children’s ages, the length of the visit and the workshops you want. On the programme: a tour of the park and the petting farm; accompanying adults are free. Message us on WhatsApp or email us with the number of pupils, their ages and your preferred date.
The refuge is not a charity and does not take donations. Entry tickets pay for the animals’ food and care: coming to visit already helps. A Google review after your visit helps us a lot too.
No: for the peace and quiet of our residents, pets stay at home.
French, English, Arabic and Darija. Write to us in whichever you prefer.
Fennec, porcupine, macaque, little owl, golden wolf, pin-tailed sandgrouse, desert monitor: species of Morocco that we care for at the refuge. For a year, you follow one of them closely. The sponsorship is symbolic: it gives you no rights over the animal, which stays in the sole care of the refuge.
500 DH a year (about 47 €), 1,200 DH for a macaque or a golden wolf. Riads, hotels and companies: 5,000 DH a year, your name on the enclosure plaque, under “Supported by”, and a free visit for your team.
Message us on WhatsApp with a photo and where the animal is. The button below marks your message as urgent: it is handled before bookings.
A Google review takes two minutes, and it’s what brings the next family to the refuge. Tell it as it was: it helps us more than anything.
