    (Translated by Google) Parking was hopeless in a disapproved car park where 2 children are responsible for safety ridiculous, in the restaurants there is a rat and mouse plague and just walk through the food on the buffet, staff just look different, have reported this to the staff and now also to the inspection service of goods, and the prices of the catering industry are ridiculously high a sandwich unox 4 €, purchase 0.65 € also some of the animals' enclosures are poorly or not cleaned and are severely outdated, resulting in neglect of the animals and animal welfare is on the back burner in this zoo we visit many zoos but have never seen this, something needs to be done about it, that this is still allowed in the Netherlands, authorities do what, then do it for the animals in the super bad stay, because this is just animal abuse, and the management of Amersfoort Zoo are going to be ashamed of these malpractices, after this posting I received e a standard e-mail with the usual answer that they could not agree with our story, with an e-mail address of an employee which does not seem to work, but beyond that show balls and say that you are going to do something or ask us specifically what we experience and then check whether it is correct or not, but no how Amersfoort Zoo deals with animal welfare that is how it also deals with complaining visitors, so bad and not of this time and all for their own benefit Just an update: old chimps fired, this says enough about the review above that much is not right at this zoo (Original) Parkeren was hopeloos in een afgekeurde parkeergarage waar 2 kinderen verantwoordelijk zijn voor de veiligheid belachelijk, in de restaurants heerst een ratten en muizenplaag en lopen gewoon door het eten op het buffet, personeel kijkt gewoon andere kant op, hebben dit ook gemeld aan het personeel en nu ook aan de keuring dienst van waren, en de prijzen van de horeca zijn belachelijk hoog een broodje unox 4€, inkoop 0.65 € ook sommige verblijven van de dieren zijn slecht of niet schoongemaakt en zijn zwaar verouderd, waardoor er verwaarlozing plaats vind van de dieren en het dierenwelzijn op een heel laag pitje staat in dit dierenpark wij bezoeken veel dierentuinen maar hebben dit nog nooit gezien, hier moet wat aan gedaan worden, dat dit nog en mag in Nederland, instanties doe wat, doe het dan voor de dieren in de superslechtte verblijven, want dit is gewoon dieren mishandeling ,en directie van dierenpark Amersfoort ga je schamen voor deze wanpraktijken, na deze posting kreeg ik een standaard mailtje met het gebruikelijke antwoord dat zij zich niet konden vinden in ons verhaal, met een mail adres van een medewerkster wat niet blijkt te werken, maar buiten dat toon ballen en zeg dat je wat gaat doen of vraag aan ons specifiek wat wij ervaren hebben en ga dan is na of het wel of niet klopt, maar nee hoe dierenpark Amersfoort omgaat met het dierenwelzijn zo gaat het ook om met klagende bezoekers, slecht dus en niet van deze tijd en dat alles voor eigen gewin Even een update: oude chimps afgeschoten dit zegt genoeg over de review hier boven dat er veel niet klopt bij dit dierenpark

    Average sized zoo situated in forested area. Can get close to some awesome animals although the zoo needs updating the pens and signage. Has lots of adventurous kid paths and a large playing area. Recommended for good weather cause most is outside.

    Great zoo for kids. Clean, lots of well taken care animals. The play ground is big and quite safe. Lots of little sliding tunnels and my boy love it

    (Translated by Google) It was very disappointing. Super fun climbing routes for children, but all closed because of corona. The indoor enclosures are also largely closed and you could not warm up anywhere. Eat outside on a patio, with patio heaters where there was no space and pointless because of the wind. Many birds were also gone because of bird flu. There were attractions such as merry-go-round and train, but you still had to pay for them separately. Could also do a route with pedal boat, but it cost 5 euros. Incredibly busy, queuing outside for my cappuccino for 20 minutes. For me and my son already lost 54 euros to enter and then the rest. Think it is ridiculous money for what you get in this day and age. (Original) Het viel ontzettend tegen. Super leuke klim routes voor kinderen, maar allemaal dicht vanwege corona. De binnenverblijven ook voor groot gedeelte dicht en je kon je nergens opwarmen. Eten buiten op een terras, met terras verwarmers waar geen plek was en zinloos vanwege de wind. Veel vogels waren ook weg vanwege de vogelgriep. Er waren attracties zoals draaimolen en trein, maar daar moest je nog appart voor betalen. Kon ook nog een route met waterfiets doen, maar koste 5 euro. Ontzettend druk, 20 minuten buiten in de rij voor mijn cappuccino. Voor mij en mijn zoon al 54 euro kwijt om binnen te komen en dan de rest nog. Vind het belachelijk veel geld voor wat je er in deze tijd voor krijgt.

    Excellent zoo! So much to do for the kids while enjoying the animals in lovely animal friendly environment. The kids and parents :-) can walk across climbing paths above the animals. So cool.

    Amersfoort Zoo is an amazing place! The well-maintained enclosures offer a natural habitat for animals. The diverse range of creatures and educational exhibits make it a great family outing. The friendly staff and commitment to conservation add to the experience. Highly recommended!

    This zoo has been around for a long time and I remember visiting it often as a child. Since then, numerous updates to the park have occured, which still make it fun and good to visit with your family. It isn't the biggest zoo, it doesn't have the most amazing animals, but it's nice for a shorter day and enough interesting things programmes through the day. The catering was kind of a lot down. The staff was very young and felt a bit clumsy. The selections are mostly unhealthy and we even got cold fries and not properly cooked poffertjes & waffles. This could definitely be improved.

    (Translated by Google) No respect! Poor Mike and Karibuna! You can only leave the beast in a nice picture. And then when an anesthetic lasts 15 minutes, you shoot both beasts heartlessly. We wanted to watch the baby panda, but we no longer buy tickets to a zoo with such impressive behavior. So pay attention to the baby panda and shoot a monkey just like that. Release the one person who caused that and took their life from 2 sweet beasts. (Original) Geen respect! Arme Mike en Karibuna! Jullie kunnen het beest alleen gezellig op de foto laten staan. En vervolgens als een verdoving een kwartier lang gaat duren, schieten jullie de beide beesten harteloos neer. We wouden nog naar de babypanda gaan kijken, maar we kopen geen kaartjes meer voor een dierentuin met zo'n imponerend gedrag. Zo leuke aandacht aan de babypanda besteden en zomaar een aap doodschieten. Ontsla de ene mens die dat veroorzaakt heeft en 2 lieve beesten van het leven beroofde.HARTELOOS!

    I saw the review on Google (4.6) from approx 14k audience I was very excited to go to this park. But I am very disappointed with the collection of animals .. They have ample of area which I feel have been wasted which they could have utilized to have a good mix of animals. If anyone who has seen Burger Zoo and then come to this park they will certainly be very disappointed. The Snakes park was close due to COVID restrictions. (This was not known in advance) The Only things is this park had advantage is that you can see the animals up close.

    Wunderschöner Tier und Dinopark der seines Gleichen sucht. Hier wird nichts vermisst. Tiere die man in solch natürlicher Umgebung noch nie gesehen hat. Zig Blickwinkel aus allen erdenklichen Mitteln wie Brücken und Tunneln hergestellt. Hier kommt jeder auf seine Kosten. Der Park ist jeden Cent wert. Das Parkticket von 9,50€ ist etwas überzogen, aber nach so einem Tag zahlt man das völlig gerne. Essensmöglichkeiten gibt es hier an jeder Ecke und alles was man sich denken kann. Die essen können ebenfalls per App bestellt und bezahlt werden und sind sehr abwechslungsreich. Selbst Fahrgeschäfte für 1 Euro und viele Spielplätze runden das Erlebnis ab. Alles kann wie gewohnt mit Buggy, Kinderwagen oder Rollstuhl besichtigt werden. Selbst eine längere Anreise kann man hier in Kauf nehmen. Absolut sehenswert 👍👍👍

    Not the biggest zoo but a must to visit for all children (and their parents 😁). The way the kids can visit certain animals by climbing up, sliding down I've never seen and they love it. In top 2 nice playgrounds and catering prices which are not over the top.

    It’s always nice to visit the Amersfoort Zoo. Because we went early and it had been raining, we didn’t get to see as many animals or play as much in the slides and bridges, but it’s still a nice day out. In the low season there’s not as many food options but what they have is enough. Everyone is really nice and helpful.

    We visited on January 1st 2024 and allowed only 2 1/2 hours. This was the best zoo I ever visited. The employees were very friendly and helpful. We had two small children with us and there was much for them to do and they never got bored. There were many animals to look at and in some cases you were able to get very close. Some animals I had never seen at other zoos. I suggest taking at least five hours for your visit. Overall a very pleasant experience. I recommend this zoo to people of all ages.

    This is without a doubt one of the most beautiful zoos I've ever visited. Almost every enclosure had a little hidden window or cave for kids to get closer and take a good look at the animals. Needless to say, I went into all of them. It's also much bigger than I had anticipated. The signs are wonderfully carved out of wood and easy to understand in any language. It is a non-smoking zoo but does have 2 smoking areas.

    Nice place to visit once .. the entry fees are little expensive comparing to the provided services the parking costs a bit as well .. other than that it was good trip today but you don't have to come again cause the area is quite small .. restaurants there serving fast food and fries and it was not so great .. in General was good trip to a regular Zoo .. and one more thing positive : Dog's are allowed in😊

  • 5/5 Frans D. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is always nice and cozy here. Nice park too The enclosures are always beautiful for the bugs. And It also always looks beautiful and well-groomed. At this park and it is really worthwhile to visit this beautiful zoo (Original) Het is hier altijd leuk en gezellig. Mooi park ook De verblijven zijn ook altijd mooi voor de beestjes. En Het ziet er ook altijd mooi en goed verzorgd uit. Bij dit park en het is ook echt de moeite waard om dit mooie dierentuin te gaan bezoeken

    One of the good Animal parks in Netherlands. A good spot for a day outing. The area is huge. It has a great variety of animals. This park is specially designed for kids with slides all over, lot of play activities. They will enjoy to the fullest.

    Had an excellent day out with the family . Service great from various staff members. Facilities clean. Bridges and slides over enclosures makes viewing animals fun , will definitely go back . Only thing to note is quite a large area so might be worth getting a buggy for kids , if not needed various drop off points .

    Great zoo with plenty of animals to see. Perfect day out with the kids. Small train ride, huge outdoor play area, and well maintained facilities. Food options are limited and it tastes okay. Best to take your own. Just buy cold drinks and ice creams ;)

    Nice zoo, animals look like they are on fair state although I think some precincts need a bit more space (owls for example), I’m actually giving this zoo 4 stars because all of the information is in Dutch, no English translations which should be an international standard by now, Avifauna has everything in Dutch and English.

    A great experience for family, friends and couples. For certain animals you can walk close to their living area, making this animal park feel more real and fun. There are many fun experiences for children and enough places to sit and have some food. The highlight of this park in my opinion is the dark area where the sloths live, but the otters and red panda steals the show for the cutest animal.

    The park is so big and has a wide variety of animals from around the world, and each exhibit is expertly designed to showcase the animals in their natural habitat. The park is also extremely well-maintained, with clean pathways and exhibits that are clearly labeled with informative signage. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, always happy to answer any questions we had about the animals. The overall atmosphere of the park is peaceful and relaxing, with beautiful landscaping and plenty of places to sit and take in the sights and sounds of the animals. There are also plenty of food and drink options available throughout the park, making it easy to spend an entire day exploring.

  • 5/5 René N. 3 years ago on Google
    One of the best zoo's in the Netherlands to bring kids to. Located inside a forest and therefore providing plenty of cover during rainy days, this zoo has a somewhat slimmer collection of animals compared to other zoo's of this size but makes up for it on playgrounds and a dinosaur garden. Great for little adventurers that like to climb and slide their way around.

  • 4/5 Deepak P. 3 years ago on Google
    Kids loved the playground than the animals. Nicely maintained. Defined routes during corona times.

  • 5/5 Sébas van der V. 3 years ago on Google
    The park is great. A lot of interaction for children. Good tour trough the park so you won't miss anything. The animals have large amount of ground which is better then some others. But the greatest in my opinion is the Dino park. Definitely worth the expands and the time.

  • 5/5 Chucky L. 4 years ago on Google
    Not too big zoo with animals that are relaxed and not stressed in their habitats. Ideal for a day out with the young ones. For the Dino lovers there are is a Dino park. Very friendly staff and the park is very clean. Keep up the good work.

  • 5/5 Joy 3 years ago on Google
    Great zoo with lots of stuff for the kids to do. Animals are behind glass, you can't get any closer to them. Bring some dry clothes on a hot day and get on/in the water.

  • 4/5 daisy A. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice Zoo. Not too big so specially good for small children. Dogs are welcome. There's a Dinosaurs park for the kids who are interested in knowing more about them. Lots of green, trees and nature. It was very crowded on a Thursday so I can't imagine how it gets at weekends.

  • 5/5 Aditya K. 3 years ago on Google
    Zoo🐘🐼, DierenPark Amersfoort is best place For family, specially for childrens. they meet their favorite animals, where they can spend nice time. Penguins attracts children a lot they can enjoy with penguin's act. Whereas monkey makes them laugh, tiger makes them scary overall It is best place of children as well as adult to meet wild life.

  • 5/5 Konrad B. 3 years ago on Google
    Very nice park. Make sure to reserve tickets online prior to visiting! To see everything it can take you around 5 to 6 hours but totally worth it. There are good maps and signs to guide you. Animals have decent space to move around which is as it should be. Parking space available right outside the park. Facilities in the park are regularly maintained. Fast food and refreshments are available to buy inside the park. Recommended if you are visiting or live in Amersfoort.

  • 5/5 Aleksandar I. 3 years ago on Google
    The zoo is so wonderfully made and the different themes and buildings where the animals reside are represented by different regions of the world. It so beautifully created and makes the experience more magical. But, I was very frustrated by the blocked passeges that are connecting the zoo. Probably, the reason is COVID-19, but still, it is an outdoor facility and it doesn't make any sense.

  • 5/5 Susanne B. 3 years ago on Google
    A very nice zoo with awesome “natural fences”. we immediately bought year passes for the entire family to visit often. The playgrounds are also very fun. Kids love the hidden places where they can explore everything. Food is good especially the sandwiches and fair prices. The animals are all looking very healthy and happy

  • 5/5 Helen B. 3 years ago on Google
    Very nice zoo. Well maintained and cleaned. Animals look healthy and well cared. Different coffee/restaurant services points. A very spacious playground for different kids ages. Because of the COVID, reservation it’s a must (through their website: easy to filling in and to pay.) my small kids, 2 and 3 y.o. managed to walk and enjoy the entire park without the stroller, just in case, you can also rent it in site. For whom is interested in dinosaurs, well one part of the park is dedicated also for them. Definitely is an advisable place for everyone.

  • 4/5 André O. 3 years ago on Google
    I have been here multiple times over the past few years. Always enjoyed myself. Maybe even more important is that my kind als seem to have great fun and are very excited when we tell them we are going there again. Before Covid-19 it was a very good Zoo, due to the current restrictions it does take away a bit of the experience as some areas are not as accessible as before. Very understandable though, not blaming the Zoo. One good side is that there are less visitors at the same time, so some things are more visible or accessible.

  • 4/5 Eldhose J. 3 years ago on Google
    Great place to hangout with the family. A bit expensive but can't complain as they are doing a lot to keep the whole place clean. Not too many animals in there but those are there, are kept clean.

  • 5/5 Karen du P. 3 years ago on Google
    Great zoo with lovely large natural looking enclosures and lots to keep the kids entertained.

  • 4/5 Robin H. 3 years ago on Google
    It's a fun park where the animals are more lively then other parks we've been to (especially zoo of Antwerp, sorry). If you have kids this is certainly the place to be. There are a lot of interactive habitats where you can climb over them, or stand in the middle,... It's a nice change of pace. I didn't give 5 stars for the simple reason that we're in COVID season and the visitors made it impossible to keep distance and when wearing a mask is not mandatory this was semi frustrating. (I think they finally brainwashed me 🙁)

  • 5/5 Sophia den O. 3 years ago on Google
    Great zoo for both parents and children. Since it is located in a forest area foothpaths are quite sheltered so this is also a great day out on more rainy days. The children also loved the dinosaur park with life-sized dinosaurs :-)

  • 1/5 christina b. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Saw today Feb 6. A broadcast on sbs9. Always fun animal programs. However, behead a sheep and feed it to the lions. This is the lowest I've seen from a zoo. If you just give pieces of meat is normal, but this is not acceptable. A complete animal. Ok in nature but not in a zoo. Not done with this yet. (Original) Zag vandaag 6 feb. Een uitzending op sbs9. Altijd leuke dieren programma's. Echter een schaap onthoofden en zo aan de leeuwen voeren. Dit is het laagste wat ik van een dierentuin gezien heb. Als jullie gewoon stukken vlees geven is normaal maar dit kan niet door de beugel. Een volledig dier. In de natuur ok maar niet in een dierentuin. Ben hier nog niet klaar mee.

Looking back on this day ..... beautiful zoo .... a lot of innovation but it sounds strange but we saw quite a few animals ... also probably too cold for them 😊 (Original) Vandaag bezoek gebracht aan de dierentuin met schoondochter,haar 2 kinderen en opa en oma...

    (Translated by Google) Very nice animal park to go to. It has lots of fun for children and plenty of places to eat. Great diversity of animals, a pity that we were not allowed in everywhere during the corona time. We had a great time. It is clearly indicated what the routes are, just a pity that many people do not stick to them, but I do not think that is a reason to deduct the number of stars. An animal park to definitely visit again. (Original) Heel leuk dierenpark om naartoe te gaan. Het heeft veel speelplezier voor kinderen en genoeg plekken om te eten. Grote diversiteit aan dieren, jammer dat we tijdens de corona tijd niet overal in mochten. We hebben ons prima vermaakt. Er staat duidelijk aangegeven wat de routes zij, alleen jammer dat veel mensen zich daar toch niet aan houden, maar dat vind ik geen rede tot aftrek van het aantal sterren. Een dierenpark om zeker nog een keer te bezoeken.

    (Translated by Google) Nice day out with the kids, too bad about the smoking people (yes and those vapers) who, despite the park's clear no smoking policy, still smoke at the playgrounds. I was also shocked by the situation of how some animals stood on a small square of land. No explanation why they have such a small residence. The protesters in front of the entrance (selfish of them for not thinking about the children, by the way) may have a point somewhere, although they are completely wrong the way they do it. (Original) Leuk dagje uit met de kids, jammer van de rokende mensen (ja en ook die vapers) die ondanks duidelijk niet rokenbeleid van het park toch gaan roken bij de speeltuintjes nota bene. Ook schrok ik van de situatie van hoe sommige dieren op een klein vakje grond stonden. Geen uitleg waarom ze zo'n klein verblijf hebben. De demonstranten voor de ingang (overigens egoïstisch van hen dat ze niet aan de kinderen denken) hebben wellicht ergens een punt, al slaan ze de plank volledig mis op de manier waarop ze het doen.

    (Translated by Google) Although zoos make me feel a bit uncomfortable - the confinement of animals anyway, even though I know that many are just rescued animals - this park is doing really well. Beautiful accommodations o.h.a, beautiful green park and a nice atmosphere. Obviously the animals are well cared for! (Original) Ondanks dat dierentuinen me wat ongemakkelijk laten voelen - het opsluiten van dieren toch, óokal weet ik heus dat veel juist geredde dieren zijn - doet dit park het echt goed. Mooie verblijven o.h.a, mooi groen park en een fijne sfeer. Overduidelijk dat de dieren goed verzorgd worden!

    We didn't receive a map at the entrance. After walking for a while we saw a sign of main-route, yet went we started following the signs. They disappeared at some point. Something they could definitely work on are lockers. They have no place to store any stuff, especially for motorcyclist a bummer, since you need to drag your gear through the whole Zoo. They could easily charge me €4,- for a locker and I would get two just for the gear I otherwise need to carry. Zoo was mostly focused on kids in my opinion, which is a bummer.

    Amazing experience and a recommended place to go with the family. Prices are right and quality is beyond expectations

    Fun zoo with lots of animals and fun things to do with your kids, also a fun section dedicated to dinosaurs.

  • 5/5 Funke E. 2 years ago on Google
    There are quite a few zoos in the Netherlands but this is a true gem for kids. They can take their own route, climb, crawl, see more than their parents. They will see sloths 30cm away without fences or glass in between. Have kids? Go here.

    Very good zoo! Good location, friendly design also for the kids. We really enjoyed the visit. The animals are so wonderful and we could really observe them. Kids have extra playgrounds and can spend their time there. Also there is a small train attraction where kids can view the zoo and have fun. Zoo is very clean and well maintained. Parking however is quite expensive 9.5€ for a day.

    A fun and amazing zoo. Even with all the Covid19 restrictions, they made a great inovation so you can still see many of the animals. There's even ways you can get really close to them and some even roam free. Definitely a great park to spend with a love one, family or friends. The only thing they are lacking is the ammount of aquatic animals.

  • 5/5 Lynn N. 2 years ago on Google
    I love this zoo, it is really nicely located within a forest. There are a lot of animals to check out. There's a small elephant, which is really cute. It still plays a lot and the guide can tell you so much about it. It is nice to see the guides are really commited to the park. The food is okay. But you don't go to a zoo for food, so that's fine. There are a couple of playgrounds for the kids. They are continuously trying to update the park and the animal habitats, which I think is a good thing. Enjoy a day out here!

    Beautiful zoo, there's not many animals but nonetheless its beautiful. It is so much fun to visit with your kids, there's lot for play ground and small parks for children with lots of different stuff to play.

  • 5/5 Elouise R. 1 year ago on Google
    So much to do for the little ones, my son who is almost 3 had a great time on the carousel, little train, playgrounds, digging for Dinosaur fossils and running through tunnels.

  • 5/5 Arc1 Media & D. 1 year ago on Google
    Nicely designed park with beautiful enclosures and large thick windows that allow you to really get up close with the animals.

  • 4/5 Eduardo Elias S. 1 year ago on Google
    The park is good, but I felt like there's not much space for all the animals. The infrastructure seems to suffer from the pandemic times, with some gardens missing some due pruning. Overall a wonderful place to take your kids. Ah, it's also a bit too expensive, but manageable.

  • 5/5 Remus T. 1 year ago on Google
    Very beautifully animals park, with a lot of things to do and animals to see, totally recommend for kids.

  • 5/5 Danco D. 1 year ago on Google
    What a place. It is fantastic half a day (at least) attraction for your familly. Compared to traditional zoo, these one is more animal friendly, larger cages area, and creative ways to feel as part od the wild. At the top corner, there is a dinosaurus section (unfortunatelly now closed for renovation). It also has pleny of playgrounds for kids, so it is perfect weeekend visit. For me, the price was a bit high (26eur per person - or ~100eur for whole familly) but that is because I am a tourist, and not a Dutch....

    It was pouring rain the whole day. Despite that we had a lot of fun with 6 toddlers and 4 adults. Parking is close enough, expensive though. Good variety of animals and playgrounds for kids. Dino part is nice and extra. Downside: only smoking areas in the while park. Some stuff (like train) wasn't included in the entry price, the ride itself was mediocre for the extra cost. Waiting time at the restaurant was a bit long, there seems to be shortage of staff. Overall would recommend.

    We had a great time,lots of wows and ahhs. My son loves animals and it was a great birthday gift to him. Friendly and helpful staffs and the maps helped us navigate through. We sadly couldn't stay as long as we would have loved to,it was quite cold. 😊😊😊

  • 4/5 Mahesh K. 10 months ago on Google
    It’s a fun place for kids with many playgrounds and dino park. Majority of zoo is covered with above 2 areas and very few animals. So, plan to visit only for kids.

  • 5/5 Seemant S. 10 months ago on Google
    Amazing experienced. My kid actually enjoyed alot (which was whole-sole motto of this trip) and so did me and my wife! The best part was the play-zone for kids every after some distance.

  • 5/5 Dorien W. 11 months ago on Google
    Best Zoo in the Netherlands for kids. Interactive, nice playgrounds. Also integrated in the zoo. Like the roaring slide at the lions kingdom or the firepole at the prairy dogs. Also the water bikes are a major succes.

    Oh its a lovely zoo. It was a warm sunny day so needless to say it was busy. No matter,

  • 4/5 My Sad E. 9 months ago on Google
    Nice zoo, enough animals to discover and the dino park is a nice touch, however some enclosures seem a bit small and most of the restaurants and food/drink stands were closed, maybe they're only open in the weekends and holidays but I'm not sure

  • 4/5 Marin K. 9 months ago on Google
    Overall great experience. My 2 year old liked the animals and we did, too. A lot of animals, playgrounds and pkenty of pleasant places to stay. Everyone around us seemed to enjoy themselves. Maybe a small improvement point would be to make bathrooms at the entrance of the park larger, especially for little kids like mine to be able to go in with either parent.

  • 5/5 Jeroen D. 8 months ago on Google
    Lovely park. I don't recommend eating at the restaurant next to the playground, but there are other good options. Due to the smaller size of the park, the kids can have a good run. The Dino forest is a favorite with most kids.

  • 4/5 Andrea J. 8 months ago on Google
    One of the prettiest and most animal friendly Zoo I’ve ever visited. I love so much how the zoo organized animals home. feels really cozy and relaxing for them. I didn’t expect this beautiful zoo at first.

  • 5/5 ZiLemon 8 months ago on Google
    A really nice park, nice to walk through and there is enough to see and do to fill an afternoon. Food is fairly priced and employees are very nice and helpful.

  • 4/5 Wolfgang T. 8 months ago on Google
    Ein sehr schöner Tierpark für die ganze Familie und wo viel für Kinder geboten ist. Den eine Stern Abzug gibt es, da man an der Kasse noch 9,50 Euro für das Parken zahlen muss.

  • 5/5 Christina L. 8 months ago on Google
    Ein sehr schöner Tierpark mit Charme..Es gibt auch in jedem Tierhaus oder auch in den kleinen Durchgängen Tiere die man sehen kann. Also schön darauf achten...Ein Dinopark ist auch schön angelegt...

  • 5/5 Clare La F. 6 months ago on Google
    I usually am not keen on zoos, as animals should be in the wild, but this zoo is fantastic. Animals are bred there,then moved to larger zoos when they are bigger, so that they do not become extinct. You can easily spend a whole day here, lots of happy animals and play areas. All the staff we spoke to were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the animals. I cannot recommend this zoo enough. Thinking about getting a season ticket, it really was that good.

  • 4/5 Elle M. 6 months ago on Google
    A lot of animals were out of their enclosures, but they seem happy! An enjoyable trip to the zoo, lots of stuff for kids as well
