I have now visited this zoo 3 times. It's great, particularly the polar bear exhibit and the elephants. There are lots of places to eat which are all very reasonably priced. A great day out, well worth every penny.

This zoo has loads of really exciting animals. My particular favourite were the elephants but the big cats, polar bears, monkeys, wolves seals and the Zambezi river tour. Although they did put penguins in the "Yukon Bay" which isn't exactly geographically correct... All the animals had plenty of room too. There are lots of places to eat but they're not... More

I have 4 kids of varying ages and seem to hit so many zoos over the years wherever we go. This is by far the best zoo ever so far. Other zoos in the area fall away under this blaze of glory. Ok so the food drink and souvenirs are expensive but that's seems quite normal for all zoos. The... More

It was very nice with all the snow. There was also a sleigh-track for free for the kids. Easy to reach with one of the buses/trams. There is also a cafeteria where you can order all sorts of different fast foods, although a bit pricey, not nor more than you would pay at any other tourist attraction in the world.

This is the best zoo which I visited; the zoo is a little bit out from Hannover but it worth to see it. when you step in you are like the middle of a jungle. You don't have the feeling that those wild animals are not at home. I saw pelicans unleashed, jumping on alley - really amazing. If you... More

We spent a day with our kids three years ago and they were so amazed that we had to visit again. The zoo is very well equipped, clean, the animals look healthy and the food quality and price is reasonable. On the flip side, do not expect extremely rare animals. All the essentials are there, including a very funny show... More

So many varieties of species and i was fortunate to have good weather on the same day. Never seen Lion and zebras in the same enclosure as they kept here. It’s good one time experience to visit (of course quite costly)

There is no denying that a lot of money, time and effort has gone in to this zoo and it is beautifully thought out and executed. The best example of this is yukon bay! This place is spectacular and i highly recommend buying the documentary dvd which explains how it was built! Everything here is themed and each area even... More
