Before you arrive

Plan Your
Milele Experience.

A little preparation leaves more room for what matters once you arrive: the animals, the stories and the moment in front of you.

Abbeville, South Carolina

Arrive Ready
to Look Closer.

Experiences are designed around the animals and their welfare. Specific timing, availability, guest limits and experience details can change, so your reservation confirmation is the authoritative source for the visit you booked.

If an animal’s comfort, behavior, health or welfare requires a change, Milele may adjust an experience. The animal comes before the attraction.

A few useful principles

01 · Time

Do Not Rush the Wild.

Arrive with enough margin that parking, check-in and practical details do not compete with the experience itself. Follow the arrival time in your confirmation.

02 · Clothing

Dress for the Outdoors.

Choose comfortable footwear and clothing appropriate for South Carolina weather and the experience you reserved.

03 · Camera

Photograph. Then Look.

Photography policies can vary by experience. Follow staff direction — and remember that some of the best moments happen when the phone comes down.

Animal welfare notice

The Experience Is Never Bigger Than the Animal.

Wildlife is not a stage prop. Animals have moods, preferences, changing health needs and days when the right decision is to alter a plan.

For that reason, Milele does not guarantee that a particular animal will behave in a particular way or participate in a particular moment. Staff may modify any activity when welfare requires it.
