The Honolulu Zoo Society is seeking enthusiastic individuals with a passion for animals and conservation to serve as guides for our Saturday evening Twilight Tours. Guides lead groups of up to 15 guests along a designated route through the Honolulu Zoo, sharing engaging stories and fascinating facts about the zoo’s animal residents. In addition to highlighting each species’ unique characteristics, guides help visitors understand the conservation challenges these animals face in the wild and inspire actions that support their protection. After completing training and demonstrating a strong understanding of the zoo’s animals, conservation messaging, and tour procedures, guides may be advanced to Lead Guide status and take full responsibility for leading Twilight Tour groups independently.
