Feed the Penguins with Virgin Experience Days, Hertfordshire
£99.00 for one person or £149.00 for two people
 This is a wonderful opportunity to meet rare African penguins and find out mroe about them, before feeding them by hand and learning about their unique behaviours.  I have to say that we got my father a Meet the Meerkat experience (he adores Meerkats) and the Hertfordshire team looked after him very well - I can't remember the last time  I saw such a wide smile on Dad's face as when he was feeding the meerkats, so this gift would make a wonderful present for any penguin lovers. This gift includes a welcome drink at the Discovery Centre, then you meet the penguins before feeding them by hand.  There's an experience certificate & t-shirt as souvenirs, and your keeper will take photos of you (with your camera) and the penguins so you have a really special memory of your day, as if feeding penguins wasn't enough!  You can stay to explore the park before or after your experience.  You have about 30 minutes with the penguins which gives you time to look at their own personalities & characteristics. 
You can also buy a similar Feed the Penguins experience with Buy a Gift for £99 for one person
