Adelaide Zoo

Request an uberSAURUS-X to your front door

What do you get when you cross an uberX and a dinosaur from Adelaide Zoo? An uberSAURUS-X.

This Saturday (7 Jan 2017), dinosaurs will be a familiar sight around Adelaide’s suburban streets as Adelaide Zoo and Uber team up to bring dinosaurs to the streets of Adelaide.

Simply open the Uber app and request uberSAURUS-X to dino-score a visit from a prehistoric 8ft dinosaur – right to your front door.

Successful requestors will receive a free ride to and from Adelaide Zoo and free entry for you and up to three friends.

Enjoy a complimentary rip-roaring day, snapping dino-mite selfies as you walk amongst more life-sized dinosaurs at the Adelaide Zoo Dinosaurs Alive exhibit.

Dino Keeper Nic Bishop said he’s excited to unleash the dinosaur on the streets of Adelaide.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Uber to spread the word about these gigantic creatures, and it’s a really innovative way to bring people to the zoo to learn more,” Nic said.

“As a conservation charity, we’re working to save their modern-day ancestors from going the way of the dinosaurs and this is a fun way to stomp that message throughout suburban Adelaide.”

Tom White, General Manager, Uber South Australia said:

“At Uber we’re all about helping people explore their city at the push of a button, and we’re excited to be partnering with Adelaide Zoo to help more people experience one of South Australia’s most popular destinations.”

“We’re also super-pumped to be able to bring to life a dino-mite experience, and encourage everyone to open the Uber app for a roaring good time on Saturday.”

Don’t let your weekend be a dino-bore, request uberSAURUS by:

  1. Opening the Uber app this Saturday (7 Jan 2017), 10am to 2pm.
  2. Selecting the ‘uberSAURUS’ option.
  3. If successful – you and a friend will get:
    • A visit from the uberSAURUS
    • Complimentary tickets to Dinosaurs Alive at Adelaide Zoo
    • uberX rides to and from the Adelaide Zoo

Microsaurus-detailios

  • Demand will be high, and availability very limited. Pro tip – get your friends to request too, before the promo is extinct at 2pm.
  • Our Nanotyrannus friend is big enough to tyrannosaurus-wreck the place. Successful requestors will need to come outside to experience the uberSAURUS.
  • The Adelaide Zoo day pass is valid for up to 4 people to use on Saturday 7 January only. However, all guests will need to be picked up at the same location, as your uberX ride will not be able to make any extra stops.
  • Have a friend who’s new to Uber? Share the code ‘UBERSAURUSX’ and they will receive $20 off their first Uber ride in Adelaide (valid until 30 January).
