  • 5/5 Mircea Suceveanu (. 2 years ago on Google
    It may not be called a zoo, but it might verey well be considered one. It may not have exotic animals like that in Vienna, Nuremberg or Zurich, but the animals are happy, well fed and well taken care of. But what makes this place special compared to Zoos in big cities is the contact between man and animals that the owners grant. You as a visitor, can acquire a small bucket of goodies and hand feed all the animals. You can actually some dens and be surounded by animals. I find this experience unique because just watching animals eat breaks that natural cycle, makes it feel like you're watching tv. Whilst feeding those animals, you get to be in direct contact with them, you get to touch them, feel them, feel their enthusiasm and curiosity. Something that's really important considering more and more youngsters have no idea where the meat on the shelf comes from. It's something I've been looking for in zoos accross Europe, but found here, 20 minutes away from Cluj. Ashamed, for a measle 4 lei, I bought only one bucket, next time I'll buy 3. The least. And probably serve something to eat. When I visited it was code orange of strong winds, only toilets were open. Looking forward to revisit during summer.

    I was very sad to see how they keep the animals. It was a freezing day outside and all cages were dirty and stinking and animals'water was frozen. They were extremely restless and seemed hungry... Large birds kept in very small cages, rodents and hedgehogs cages were so dirty that visitors could not even breathe next to them... A lonely possum in one small cage outside, looking depressed... I really wish this place would be closed down. They have no respect for animals or birds, and for their basic needs.

    Pretty nice place. It takes at least two hours to roam through the entire garden. Get the food buckets - the animals are well behaved and will want to eat from your hand. The spring time is the best to visit since there are a lot of offsprings - cute and cuddly. We haven't tried their restaurant in any of our visits but it's good to know that one is available.

    Very nice place to go alone or with kids. You can watch, feed and pet a lot of creatures there. You can buy some small buckets with food for them at the entrance or you can bring some carrot rolls from home if you are inspired enough. All in one, the furry friends can brighten your day

    I've been here with my family 4-5 times already, and it's great every time. They also improve the place, adding new experiences. Pizza from the restaurant is much better than 3 years ago. It is a really popular place for families with children. It is quite crowded on the weekends and difficult to find a parking spot. I feel bad though for some wild birds and animals that don't have enough space and look sad (wild cat, owl, hawk). Other animals seem happy

    Might prove an interesting learning experience for young kids who otherwise don't have the chance of seeing / petting / feeding all sorts of animals. Not all of the animals seemed well looked-after, however.

    Lovely place to spend a Sunday with friends. Lots of animals to visit, including an angry lamma who steals your treat bucket 😋. For 4-5 lei, you are given a bucket of food treats.

  • 5/5 Bianca O. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The animals are incredibly friendly and cute, they all sit comfortably and eat from the palm of their hand. The field is very large, very well arranged. I recommend buying more than one bucket of food because there are so many animals and you will definitely want to feed them all. One thing I would improve on, namely, could be to personally supervise the interaction between customers and pets. Because in the open area, where the rabbits are, no one on the staff was watching what was happening, and the children were kind of torturing them. (Original) Animalele sunt incredibil de prietenoase și drăguțe, toate stau sa fie mângâiate și mănâncă din palmă. Domeniul este foarte mare, foarte bine amenajat. Recomand sa cumpărați mai mult de o găletușă de mâncare pentru ca sunt foarte multe animale și sigur veți dori sa le hrăniți pe toate. Un singur lucru as îmbunătăți, anume ar putea pune personal sa supravegheze interacțiunea între clienți și animăluțe. Întrucât in zona deschisă, unde sunt iepurii, nimeni din staff nu veghea ce se întâmpla, iar copiii ii cam chinuiau.

    Very nice place to visit with children. They can feed animals and ride ponies. I’m giving this a 4 star review because some animals were alone, some were in very small cages and we weren’t given food for all animals. I would also recommend to put up some signs about what food is recommended for each animal. Overall the experience was very nice.

    Cool place for a relaxing day. You can buy a little bucket from the entrance and feed the animals. A pretty big range of animals, but a lot of deers and birds. Every animal was lovely, even the lama. No bites, just love. The birds area was quite smelly and some of the areas could help a bit more cleaning. Some animals seemed sad but it was a very hot day. Maybe more water for them during the summer will help. I think some better guiding lines marking a one-way in all the park to see all the animals will help a lot.

    (Translated by Google) Nice, but please do something with the wild cat, she is very obese and barely moving. And the hedgehog has a big open wound on his head, I hope you help him with a treatment. Otherwise everything is ok. And I'm glad you paved the way to you. (Original) Frumos, dar va rog faceți ceva cu pisica sălbatică, e foarte obeză si abia se mișcă. Si ariciul are o rană mare deschisa la cap, sper ca il ajutati cu un tratament. În rest totul e ok . Si ma bucur ca ati asfaltat drumul pana la voi.

  • 4/5 Diana L. 11 months ago on Google
    Pretty place, very enjoyable. The kids loved petting and feeding the animals. I dropped one star because the rabbits are not taken care of properly. They are fed too many carrots which is harmful to them due to the amount of sugar. Probably that's why the "sick room" has mostly rabbits in recovery. Please consider switching the carrots to lettuce.

    Sehr schöner Ort für Kinder aber auch für Erwachsene. Der Hinweg ist bereits sehr gut und interessant, vor Ort gibt es Parkplätze und ein Restaurant. Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich und das Essen sehr gut. Von Kaninchen bis zum Zebra alles zum Streicheln. Für ca 1€ kann man einen Futtereimer kaufen. Selbst uns als Erwachsenen ohne Kinder hat es sehr gut gefallen!

    (Translated by Google) Great, even if it's a colder day, the animals make you forget everything. I really liked raccoons, alpacas, llamas and donkeys. It can also be reached by public transport and then on foot. It is not so far from Cluj-Napoca, and the experience itself is worth all the money. (Original) Minunat, chiar dacă este o zi mai friguroasă, animalele te fac să uiți de tot. Mi-au plăcut foarte mult ratonii, alpacele, lama și măgarii. Se poate ajunge și cu transportul public și apoi mers pe jos. Nu este chiar atât de departe de Cluj-Napoca, iar experiența în sine merită toți banii.

    Nice place near Cluj Napoca,perfect for a quick getaway from the busy city. The park is big with lots of trails and animal species ypu can explore. In the price of the ticket you have a bucket of vegetables and grains included which you can feed to the animals.

  • 5/5 Mihai A. 8 months ago on Google • 59 reviews
    A different zoo, where kida can intwract with the animals and have a day of fun. The animals are well cared for and look healthy and happy. What an amazing hidden gem. For sure a place to see.

  • 4/5 Adrian A. 9 months ago on Google • 51 reviews
    Very nice place with lots of animals, most of them in an open space free big area. Only thing I did not like was that people working there are seem to be disturbed by visitors. Bored and not too friendly attitude.

  • 5/5 George Z. 5 months ago on Google • 39 reviews
    Went there with the kids, the experience was fabulous. You get to feed all those animals, they are all so nice and calm and they eat straight from the palm of your hand (when I say "all" I mean zebra and camel included, not only the goats and cows). A couple of hours well spent, worth the ride.

  • 5/5 Irina K. 7 months ago on Google • 28 reviews
    The place is very beautiful and the animals look healthy. It is better to go early in the morning so it is not so busy.

  • 5/5 pascaltoni 8 months ago on Google • 8 reviews
    an amazing place, we've been today with the kids, the animals are really taken care of with loads of ground around, the zoo is interactive which kids loved the most, there are playgrounds and cafes where you can eat, all in all...we had an amazing day and kids loved it :)

  • 5/5 ardita c. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Interested!! It offers some alternative to the circus in the city. It was nice that I was able to pay with the card in / at the adventure park. The animals can be fed and the time is at their discretion. At the entrance you receive a bucket of carrots and grains on which the animals are looking like a bottle. It still seems to be in full development because I do not explain the various concrete mixers, shovels and other tools "nicely" scattered. (Original) Interesat!! Oferă ceva alternativa la circul din oraș. Plăcut a fost faptul că am putut achita cu cardul in/la parcul aventura. Se pot hrăni animalele și timpul este la discreție. La intrare primești o găletușă cu morcovi și grăunte pe care animalele sunt cu ochii ca pe butelie.Pare totuși să fie în plină dezvoltare deoarece nu îmi explic diversele betoniere,lopeți și alte scule "frumos" împrăștiate.

  • 5/5 Nicolae M. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The other day I visited this wonderful place which is only a few km from Cluj and I was very impressed by everything that was done there. It is really a place of relaxation and recreation, a place where you can interact directly with animals that are present there through that food bucket, you can enjoy the zip line in the forest, you can ride horses and ponies, you can enjoy their delicious food and many other things ... I gladly recommend this wonderful place especially for parents with small children, who will be fascinated by the animals and birds there! (Original) Am vizitat zilele trecute acest loc minunat care este la doar cativa km de Cluj si am ramas foarte impresionat de tot ceea ce s-a realizat acolo.Este intr-adevar un loc de relaxare si recreere,un loc in care poti interactiona direct cu animalale care sunt prezente acolo prin acea galetuța cu mancare,te poti bucura de tiroliana din padure,poti calari cai si ponei,te poti infrupta din mancarurile lor delicioase si multe alte lucruri... Recomand cu placere acest loc minunat in special pentru parinti cu copii mici,care vor fi fascinati de animalele si de pasarile de acolo!

  • 1/5 M L. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Terrible experience if I refer to the conditions in which the two dogs are kept, the shepherd breed. They live in 2 square meters of concrete, in their own feces, without soil or anything around nature. (Original) Îngrozitoare experiență dacă ma raportez la condițiile în care sunt ținuți cei doi caini, rasa ciobănesc. Trăiesc in 2 m pătrați de beton, în propriile fecale, fara pământ sau ceva natura înjur.

  • 5/5 Steffany C. 3 years ago on Google
    A very nice place to visit. The animals are humans friendly and very well taken care of.

  • 5/5 Sorin V. 2 years ago on Google
    Very interesting family-time place. Basically, a very nice zoo where you can see a various sort of animals (horses, sheeps, pigs, lamas, camels, zebras, a lot of deer types and many other small or big animals) where you also have the chance to feed them. On site, there is also a restaurant. The road is very well maintained. From here you can also drive 12 km toward "Stana lui Aidan" which is another muss see (and must eat). Totally recommended.

  • 4/5 Petra P. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice place, great for a weekend walk. The animals are friendly and you can feed them. Don't forget to bring your camera, there are some good places for pics. Also, take in consideration that it closes at 5PM and prepare for a little mud, snow and ice this period.

  • 5/5 Bogzanovich 2 years ago on Google
    Simply amazing! The best petting zoo there is. When in need of a spiritual recharge, this is the place to go to. Animals are well looked after, happy and cuddly. Be careful, the camel has a temper.

  • 4/5 Lavinia G. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Cristina B. 1 year ago on Google • 5 reviews
    Great experience! We went on a cold cloudy day in November and had a blast! Our 3 year old was super excited to feed the animals and look around and ride a pony! Is also great to see that the animals have good amount of space and most of them are living in the same type of climate also in the wild.

  • 5/5 Timea D. 1 year ago on Google
    Family friendly, with lots of animal species (rabbit, peackock, pony, horse, zebra, mufflon, goat, lemur, etc.) The road to the farm is asfathed, the interior is pavated so it's easy to acces. They have a lot of parking place. You can buy a little bucket wich contains sliced carrot and corn so you can feed all the animals there with it. They also have a restaurant (and places where you can picknick) and horse riding possibilities. You can also find an adventure park for kids there. It is a place that worth visiting.

  • 5/5 Mihai S. 11 months ago on Google
    Similar to a zoo, but the animals have lots of space to live. The greatest thing abot this "zoo" is that you can pet and feed most of the animals. Amazing experience.

  • 5/5 Laurie 10 months ago on Google
    Great experience. Amazing animals. Cute Restaurant My kid was extatic

  • 5/5 Angelica J. 9 months ago on Google
    My entire family loved this place. It is an amazing zoo where the animals have a lot of space, there is like half of a forest allocated to the deer where they can roam free, but they still are coming to the tourists for the treats and you can see them up close. It has a huge variety of animals. The place is very beautiful and serene. There is also a restaurant where you can enjoy some traditional Romanian food. We really liked the grilled pork with fries.

  • 5/5 Andreea 7 months ago on Google
    Very nice place, clean and it has a beautiful view. Our kid loved it, feedind the animals was an amazing experience for him. They also have a mini adventure park and a place for the kids to play slides and other things. If you go on weekends it might be hard to find a parking place because its crowded.

  • 5/5 Mihnea S. 7 months ago on Google
    Perfect for kids 5-14. The pony/horse riders are a favorite activity, same with the adventure park for the older kids. The animals are super friendly and will definitely eat out of your hand. Perfect for kids to get used to animals.

    This place is very suitable for families with kids. There are various things one could do here - feed various animals (from rabbits to lamas), talk to parrots, ride poneys or horses, make a tour with a train, eat and drink. Also you can enjoy Gecko Park with all its adventures.

  • 4/5 Paul 3 years ago on Google
    Although it's a good place to go with your child, it's just a bit heartbreaking when you see those animals there. Yeah sure, you feel a bit accomplished when you buy the ticket and they give that bucket full of corn and carrots and go and feed the animals but you can just see how unhappy they are...Fun fact, there is a Lama there that will steal your bucket, hence the Lama's name, Steelie Dan. They have trash pandas too. Lovely

  • 3/5 Cherecheș R. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very nice location, the cutest animals, but some animals seem to me to look exactly like the zoo, in a small cage with no space, for example the wild cat, all the birds, bunnies, squirrels, the two dogs, raccoons. I do not agree with such practices, it is better if the animals in the cages are released and remain those with large and spacious pens where they can move freely. (Original) Locația foarte frumoasă, animalele cele mai drăguțe, dar unele animale mi se pare ca stau exact ca la grădină zoologică, într-o cușcă mică și fără spațiu, de exemplu pisica sălbatică, toate păsările, iepurașii, veverițele, cei doi câini, ratonii. Nu sunt de acord cu astfel de practici, e mai bine daca animalele din cuști sunt eliberate și rămân cele cu țarcuri mari și spațioase unde se pot mișca in voie.
