I'd say "seeing the zoo" -- is "skyfari" some kind of safari in a plane? If so, then I guess "skyfari" is correct.

"Thrilled" is wrong in the sentence because then it means that the experience was thrilled, when what you want to say is that the people were thrilled by the experience of riding the Skyfari. Therefore, the experience was thrilling to the people.
