    We had such a great day today, spent a couple of hours at the zoo. So many animals, we were really suprised how brilliant it was especially considering the price. Wasn’t busy for a Saturday either. Highly recommend

    Pretty small for a zoo, but also really nice for what it is. Waze dropped us off at the hospital parking lot, so I’d use google maps to find the parking. Total was about €19 for two people plus €1 to park

    This is a nice and clean little zoo with a decent assortment of animals. They seem to have a heavy concentration of different monkeys and birds, but they also have some larger mammals and some reptiles as well. The park is easily walkable and you could probably see everything in about an hour. It is very well shaded with lots of trees to help shade you as you walk around. There is a parking lot right next door that cost €1. The signs are not in English but that did not detract from us having a good time.

    Great deal. We loved to come here. We had a club amigos card and went often to see the animals. I encourage the preservation of extinguished animals. Maybe giving the kids questions to answer during visits, something that can be looked up about the animals on the boards that would be great. Just an idea. We will miss the care taker.😁well done guys!

    The most southern zoo in mainland Europe. Not the largest of zoos, rather, compact and pleasant to walk around (or take the train). Plenty of animals, generally in good sized enclosures. The elephant & the white tiger are noticeably absent unfortunately. But there's a good selection of birds, monkeys, chimpanzees, lemurs, lions, giraffes.... A great place to take the kids for an hour or three, there's a place for drinks and snacks and a super souvenir shop. All in all, well worth a visit.

    Beautiful zoo in Jerez. They have a fair amount of animals that are close to extinction and are protected here. The caretakers seem to love their charges and take very good care of the animals.

  • 5/5 Guy D. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Even in the dead of winter, lots of little-known animals to see. I was surprised by the quality of this zoo in the city. To see if you go to Jerez (Original) Même en plein hiver, beaucoup d'animaux peu connus à voir. J'ai été surpris par la qualité de ce zoo en pleine ville. A voir si vous passez à Jerez

  • 5/5 Nelson C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is surprising how complete, careful and clean it is found in both fauna and flora. In addition, its price is very affordable. Ideal for spending the day with the family learning and having fun with children. A pity that the current pandemic situation does not allow all the activities that would take place under current conditions. (Original) Sorprende lo completo, cuidado y limpio que se encuentra tanto en fauna como flora. Además, su precio es muy asequible. Idóneo para pasar el día en familia aprendiendo y divirtiéndose los niños. Una pena que la situación de pandemia actual no permita realizar todas las actividades que en condiciones actuales se desarrollarían.

    The animals are not in the best living conditions and the pens are small, was a good experience seeing them though.

    Good day out with my 6 year old. Everything you'd expect from a zoo, more compact than most. Only downside was reptile house wasn't open. Definitely recommended, though not sure it we'd make a repeat visit.

  • 5/5 Steve 7 months ago on Google • 95 reviews
    Great little zoo aimed at conservation. Really well kept and close enough to the exhibits to be able to see them easily. Went on a day when it was 43 degrees but still cool under the trees and its the highest point in the city so still gets a breeze. Great for kids.

  • 3/5 M B. 2 months ago on Google • 81 reviews New
    A small Zoo with limited amount of animals. Quite impressive for a town this size though. Mostly birds, but not many mamals.

  • 5/5 Gemma M. 1 year ago on Google • 30 reviews
    Went to the zoo for my daughters birthday party. Would have stayed the whole day if the weather was warmer. Loads to see and a great bonus that you can take your own food and stop and play in the park.

  • 5/5 Erika S. 3 months ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    Is a total surprise ♥️ the most amazing is the Lynx family. Giraffes and zebras, in a 65.000 m2 of amazing forest that is composed by one thousand species. The Zoo holds several projects about investigation, species protection, species reproduction, and biodiversity. A must to visit in Jerez.

  • 5/5 Emma H. 9 months ago on Google
    A fun half a day out, with lots of animals to see. The bar/cafe for a pitstop was excellent too. Would definitely recommend, it was great value for money.

  • 4/5 jens g. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very well located, a lot of vegetation. But like most zoos, there is too little room for animals (Original) Muy bien ubicado, mucha vegetación. Pero como en la mayoría de los zoológicos, hay demasiado poco espacio para los animales

    Cute animals. Kid friendly. Clean and neat. Need more visitors for the animals. They need more help.

  • 4/5 N. P. 2 years ago on Google
    Worthwhile visiting with kids. Not a vast variety of animals but enough to keep the kids occupied for an hour

  • 5/5 Jonathan F. 3 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    Been there on a wednesday around noon and had the zoo almost to ourselves. Surprisingly large considering the size of the city of Jerez with spacious enclosures. You definitely get your money's worth. A visit will take you at least an hour if you don't carelessly rush through. Takes about 45min by foot to get there from the train station on a leisurely pace that takes you past the alcázar, cathedral and the occasional sherry/brandy bodega. And don't neglect the plants - there are some botanical treasures to be found on the premise!

  • 4/5 Rishenda T. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice zoo but like lots of zoos could benefit from a refurbishment. Many birds in small enclosures.

  • 4/5 Moriah 2 years ago on Google
    Was very pleased, except sad about how small the Lion enclosure is....and the fact people were feeding bread to the zebras and giraffes without any workers reprimanding patrons.

  • 5/5 Rahaf 2 years ago on Google
    My kids enjoyed and we had a great time seeing those beautiful creatures , the zoo has a small playground and a souvenir shop 💖

  • 4/5 C.J. W. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a great trip for any family searching for adventure and information. Wheel chair accessibility makes it perfect for old and young and challenged. I recommend the annual family price for best local value.

  • 5/5 R W. 9 months ago on Google
    Read some of the reviews saying this zoo was small, when it's actually the opposite. Animals are well kept, in large cages. Lots of variety of animals, and generally a good day out

  • 3/5 V D. 11 months ago on Google
    There are a lot of animals which are worth seeing and which brought me some joy. BUT... The zoo itself is not very clean and neat, which should be improved. Also, the compounds of the animals were very small! It was not nice to see some of the animals being held on such small spaces. Especially compared to zoos in other European countries, I was actually shocked how bad animal protection is here in Spain. There is a lot to do…

  • 4/5 Gediminas B. 11 months ago on Google
    Small-medium size, fine, maintained and clean zoo with qyite mamy different species. It takes max 2 hours to see everything. 3.5/5. Men toilet is terrible - 1.5/5.

  • 5/5 Frank D. 1 year ago on Google
    A quiet place that you'd like to return to regularly, they are improving the facilities and adding new animals

  • 5/5 Bob M. 5 years ago on Google
    As long as you are comfortable with the principle of zoos you should enjoy this one. We have enjoyed each of our 3 visits here.

  • 5/5 Jay K. 1 year ago on Google
    All animals here couldn't survive in the wild due to certain reasons, and the zoo has saved two species from extinction. They have an amazing education department and do incredible breeding programs to breed, and later release into the wild endangered species. Amazing place, and you can see the workers love the animals.

  • 5/5 Sandra C. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent experience. Plenty to do and an excellent variety of animals. Very pleased for the price paid.

    (Translated by Google) The Jerez Zoo is a place to visit and learn about nature and help the planet in its fight against climate change. It has unique species such as the Iberian Lynx or the Red Panda, and in hermitage. It is also a Botanical Garden, so your visit implies knowing the plants and animals that we see and thus get closer to our ecosystems. Recommended for its raptors, anatidae and apes from around the world. His visit is well worth it because his reproductive work is commendable and his cleanliness is enviable. Visiting the Jerez Zoo is achieving happiness in exchange for helping our environment. Do not miss it. .

  • 5/5 Michal R. 4 years ago on Google
    Great little zoo. Easy to walk and see all animals. It is a bit messy because some big birds are running freely and leaving droppings behind all over the place. So good thing that safe animals are free but you can step into something quite easily ;) Fair price for entry and anybody who visited Colchester zoo knows that ;) Good selection of animals. I liked leopards, red pandas, bats, giraffes and hippopotamus.

  • 3/5 Phil M. 5 years ago on Google
    Small little zoo. Has pretty much all you need to see. Just wished some of the enclosures were bigger for some of the animals. The monkeys and birds in particular.

    (Translated by Google) It had been many years since he went but I see him just as careful as when he was little. Maybe I miss a show, updating a bit with respect to other parks and zoos in this regard. To say that although you can eat in the zoo (there is a picnic area) the cafeteria-restaurant was closed and there was not even where to buy water, I do not know if it will always be like that but you have to take that into account. (Original) Hacía muchos años que no iba pero lo veo igual de cuidado que cuando era pequeño. Quizá echo en falta algún espectáculo, actualizándose un poco con respecto a otros parques y zoos en este aspecto. Decir que aunque se pueda comer en el zoo (hay zona de merendero) la cafetería-restaurante estaba cerrado y no había siquiera dónde comprar agua, no se si siempre será así pero hay que tenerlo en cuenta.
