Siegfried and Roy’s Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat is a fun way to spend the afternoon in Las Vegas among nature to see white tigers, lions, and dolphins. When you step into the Secret Garden, you are greeted by several habitats of tigers and lions.
White Tiger Habitat
Siegfried and Roy are best known for their love of and show with the white tigers. These beautiful creatures are featured in the habitat and Secret Garden.
What most people may not know is that tigers are the largest living members of the cat family. Lions are the second largest.
Dolphin Habitat in Vegas
When you enter the Dolphin Habitat, you see a large pool, where there is sometimes a dolphin show going on with stadium seating. You can also walk right up to the pool wall and watch the trainers feeding and playing with the dolphins.
Surrounding the pool is the Snack Bar and the The Dolphin’s Shop for souvenirs.
Swim with Dolphins
We were fortunate enough to be at the Dolphin Habitat during a couple’s special interactions with the dolphins. The wife was suited up for the Trainer for a Day, a 5 hour experience starting at $495.
Not only was she able to swim with the dolphins, but also learned commands to use with the dolphins to perform tricks, ride their backs, and launch her into the air. It was quite amazing to watch, and more fun to watch a complete newbie, than just the seasoned trainers.
Painting With the Dolphins
Painting with the Dolphins is a $149 experience in which you hold a canvas while the dolphins will paint with special brushes and up to three colors. You get 8×10 Art Canvas and 6×8 photo with a dolphin.
