step into our world—a world of refuge, care, and transformation. Through our educational private tours, visitor days, field trips, virtual tours, and events, we invite you to become a part of the sanctuary residents’ world. Keep scrolling to see our many offerings.

Monthly Public Visitor Days

First Saturday of the month from 11:00am- 1:00pm, we open our doors to visitors aged 12 and older for a fun-filled and information-packed tour. Click below to see our current Visitor Day schedule.

Public visitor days ask for a $30 donation per attendee (for groups of 4 or more, please book a private tour).

Private Tours

Our private tours are a great opportunity for friends and family to meet our residents in an intimate and personalized way! We can tailor our 1.5 hour private tours to groups of all ages up to 6 participants total.

Our minimum price for group tours is $200, and $50 per each additional guest up to 6 total.

Corporate & Team Tours

Email us if you would like to arrange a visit for your next work retreat or team excursion to West Marin. We also offer group & corporate volunteer work days!

Field Trips & Humane Education

Bring your students or campers out for an age-appropriate educational and explorative lesson, tour and/or service project. Youth love the sensory, hands-on experience that allows not only their curiosity, but their natural sense of empathy and care, to blossom. Learn more about our Friends and Food Youth Education programming here.

This was PURE JOY! I can’t remember the last time I grinned ear-to-ear like this.
