Group Visits to Maine Wildlife Park

Inspire and connect your crew with Maine's wildlife on a trip to the Maine Wildlife Park. We offer two options for group visits:

• Group Visits for groups of 20 or more
• Educational Group Visits for public, private, and charter schools

Group Visits

For groups of 20 or more

Maine Wildlife Park welcomes a wide range of organized groups for self-guided visits. Group visits are a great option for homeschool groups, camps, youth and recreation programs, enrichment programs, family groups, and other community organizations.

These visits are self-guided and do not include a structured education program. Groups explore the park at their own pace during regular public hours.

Group Admission

$7 per person

Education Group Visits

For school groups with 10 or more students

Education group visits are available to public, private, and charter schools visiting as part of a scheduled school-day instructional program. These visits must take place during the normal school day and be supervised by school staff.

Programs held after school hours, on weekends, holidays, or during school vacation periods do not qualify for education visit rates and should be booked as standard group visits. Homeschool groups, camps, youth organizations, and enrichment programs are also welcome under group admission rates.

Education Group Admission

$7 per person (students, staff, and chaperones)

One staff member or chaperone per 10 students receives free admission. Additional staff or chaperones are eligible for the discounted group rate if they are included in the confirmed headcount in advance. All staff and chaperones are expected to actively supervise students throughout the visit.
