We booked Safari Pete for our end of year party at our Preschool. Pete was fantastic!! Pete came with a large range of animals to show to the children. Pete was very engaging with the children and greeted parents and children who were arriving. Pete encouraged the children to touch some of the animals, and gave the children facts about the animals.
Safari Pete was fantastic with the children and parents. He made the whole experience really exciting for everyone. He was very understanding and flexible with some of the challenges we presented to him on the day. He's very professional and clearly enjoys what he does.
I rarely leave reviews but seriously Safari Pete is a legend. 3 kids and 20 years of kids birthday parties (my eldest daughter now 21) and this guy tops them all! Professional, yet friendly and very talented. We had THE best time and the kids were speechless. Beautifully cared for animals and what a party!! Thanks Safari Pete you are the best of rhe best! X
Such a great entertainer, Pete is one of the best dealing with kids. I’ve seen a feed others so far, but none was so amazing handling kids. Great job and totally recommend him.
Brilliant. Both kids and adults were captivated the entire time. An interesting and fun hour that whizzed by. Would definitely recommend booking!
Pete came to our house for my daughter's 11th birthday and we all had a fantastic experience. I can't recommend him highly enough. The group of 11 year olds are all very knowledgeable about animals, so he challenged them with tricky questions and we all learnt a lot. The animals seemed very happy and well cared for. 10/10!
I love watching animals and it was great. We had an amazing weekend with our family. Thank you for this expirience!
Safari Pete was incredible; he is obviously an animal enthusiast and so good with kids. We kept our (6 year old’s) party quite small as he advised that some of the animals prefer a quieter environment and were so glad we did as it felt so intimate. My daughter loves animals and she had the time of her life and learnt a lot - Pete was also very flexible and made the party so fun. Adults and children alike were enthralled. A meerkat sitting on my shoulder was a highlight of my life (sorry kids). Now sure how we’re going to top it next year - would 100% recommend !
Safari Pete was fantastic. He found the right balance of education, entertainment and engagement. The children were enthralled, had fun and learned about the animals at the same time. It was for a sixth birthday party and he made the birthday boy feel special whilst including everyone at the party, including the parents. I would definitely recommend Safari Pete, his wide array of animals was impressive and he is a fun and genuine person who showed his love of animals throughout.
Fantastic experience to have Safari Pete and his incredible animals for our son’s 6th birthday. Everyone there from aged 4 to aged 82 LOVED it! He was great with the kids and they were transfixed all the way through. We all learnt a lot about his animals and thought he was brilliant!
Pete came to my son's birthday party this weekend and was incredible. He kept a bunch of unruly 6 year olds spellbound for an hour. And the parents also had an awesome time! Easily the best kid's party entertainer we've ever used
Would thoroughly recommend. Pete was fantastic with the kids at my sons 6th birthday; patient, fun, engaging and entertaining. Great variety of animals too.
Pete is amazing, i won an award that allowed me to bring him to my secondary school and he was the sweetest human being I've ever met, he was careful with the animals and removed them from the spotlight if they were too scared of us! I had a tarantula down my leg and afterwards a meerkat on my shoulder! Honestly a sweet guy and i wish him so much luck on his journey of conservation and animal protection. He is the best person we could've found for this! I hope to see him in the future again :))) Loved speaking to him, he's such a genuine person <33
Absolutely fantastic Couldnt praise him enough. Great with the kids, very kind very patient. Would 100% recommend. Love how the kids could touch or even hold the animals. My grandkids where so excited they stroked a crocodile. Well done, very pleased.
Pete did such a great show, he was amazing with my son and all the other kids, everyone had an amazing time. I really appreciate the way he interacted with my child with autism, what a star.
Amazing!!! Safari Pete was an absolute hit at my son’s birthday party. He obviously loves all his animals so much and was so engaging, everybody young and old was thoroughly entertained. Highly recommend!!!
I was shocked and disturbed by a recent appearance by safari pete at a children’s birthday party. His animals (including an owl, a meerkat and a crocodile) were locked up in black storage boxes barely big enough to contain them, before waiting in the boxes and then being exposed one by room to a room full of screaming children and made to perform. The animals must have been terrified and I can not see how this could possibly not considered as animal cruelty.
We loved having Safari Pete for my daughter’s birthday. Safari Pete was extremely knowledgeable, he kept adults and children so engaged. Such an amazing experience for the children - We can’t recommend enough.
We used Safari Pete for my son's 6th Birthday back in April. He was amazing, so energetic, and kept both children and parents mesmerised with his fact and interactions with all the audience. I had so many parents ask me how I found him, and said how much they all enjoyed the show. He is a one-off and you will not regret booking this !!experience
Thank you Safari Pete for making my son's birthday a fantastic day. The children and adults were all captivated by Pete's presence and huge, lovely personality- it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience and the funnest and coolest of all birthdays ! Best wishes to you and your adorable family of animals !
