You will learn some new facts about animals
May 2022
The best part of this zoo are animal keepers. They are all young friendly people that love animals and tell you so many interesting facts about them. You think you know a lot about whatever animal, but you don't.
From the animals, guinea pigs were introverted due to covid time and no contact with people, and it was not possible to pet bears, tigers and lions, due to obvious reasons. But all the other animals that could be pet were so fluffy and friendly! I have created a memory by petting mama kangaroo that had a baby kangaroo next to her.
Most of the cafés at the zoo were closed at the beginning of May, probably it was not the season yet. I didn't like the miniatures of the buildings that are the park at the zoo much, but I think that the kids will love them.

Nice but small
Aug 2020 • Family
Nice place for one hour, its not for whole day trip. Its good to visit this place directly from tatralandia aquapark, the price is 5 euro for person in this case.

The food was terrible but it was not the main goal of our trip. The animals look healthy and guys care about them.

Do not visit this place. The animals have horrible conditions, small space, no shadow. For me is safety also big question. Children can see animals in a short distance, but it is high price for poor lions and tigers and bears. Please, do not support this

Worst tourist trap ever!!!
Aug 2016
Commercial abuse of animals! No attempt to create any type of natural habitat. Terrible queuing everywhere. Not an appropriate event for a child to learn about animals and nature! This place seems to be created only to explore tourists and maximize profit at any cost!

I felt sorry for the animals
Aug 2017 • Family
You can pet and touch a bear cub or lion. Almost all the animals can be touched. It sounds exciting - but it's wrong.
The area for the horses, sheeps, goats and such is spacious and great.
The area of the lion and tiger is too small.

The children enjoyed the experience, but I felt bad for the prey enimals. They are not meant to have strange humans at close contact all day long. It felt like abuse (although it was not meant to be).
So - no.

Avoid! Terrible conditions
Sep 2020
Animals here live in terrible conditions and staff looked pretty unbothered about it. It’s truly heart breaking to see monkeys having smaller area than squirells. Most of the bigger animals arent even in a group or couple. The best you can do is avoid this place (unless you can donate tons on money to reconstruct the WHOLE area).

Different kind of Zoo
Aug 2019 • Family
Very different in the direct contact with the animals. Being close to lion and tiger Cubs got the children quite excited. The highlight was the baby bears who were very playful and running all around us in their cage.
The lines for tickets and the main attractions were a bit long and without shade.

Had a great time even in the cold weather!
Nov 2017 • Couples
We went to the Zoo for a quick one-day getaway from Zilina with my girlfriend. First be advised they dont take cards so have cash on hand (7€ per adult). There were quite a lot of people as its next to the Tatralandia complex with tons of guests. We loved all the animals and even the terrarium below in the sports hall. The best of course were the small tigers, panthers and cats that you could pad. The largest tiger was a bit in a hunting mood so I would definitely recommend parents to have small children on their backs or in their arms as it could be nasty. The small bugger went around and bit people in the legs (me twice) but more out of boredom than aggression. Be advised that they took guided tours to the tigers every half and full hour with about 12 people per group so rather stand in the line to get in. We didnt really get how it worked with the other cages/animal as there were some groups, that we for some reason didnt join and then couldnt enter the other areas. Anyway you could pad most of the zebras, llamas and other animals freely so that was no big deal. The terrarium was great, I had a large varanus sitting on my shoulder and got a great story about how to feed the reptiles, some stories about butterflies etc. from the attendant.

I couldnt recommend this place more with or without kids, its definitely a great experience to be this close to such beautiful creatures.
