There's quite a range of animal experiences in Sussex, and also others in neighbouring counties Kent, Surrey and Hampshire if you're willing and able to get there.  Horse drawn carriage driving, bee-keeping, husky experiences, reptiles and more - there's plenty to choose from. 

One of the great things about animal experiences is that you can often see things you wouldn't usually see, and they can provide a great chance to find out more about the animals and get really close up and personal with them!
