Paris Zoo (Parc Zoologique de Paris)

We visited Paris during the heatwave of June 26. Last day of our stay there we decided out if the blue to visit the zoo. It was a great decision. Decent ticket prices and a great variety of animals. My children were thrilled. Even though the animals seemed a bit exhausted by the heat and they were trying to find shadows to relax, we managed to get a good look to many of them. We loved the penguins, the giraffes and the flamingos. There are great spots for picnic too. If you go to Paris, don't miss the zoo. Cheers

I love this highly clean zoo. This zoo is actually the cleanest zoo I have seen in my life. I swear, me and my husband were surprised about this. All the street of the zoo were all clean, its white colour floor were even looks like have been already white painted. No trash has been seen and all the animal glass pools were also clear, that's why you can see clearly while the animals swimming inside the pool. The Great Rocks 🪨 design in the middle of the zoo make it more stylish 😎. It has two restaurants, one near the entry and another one is near giraffe house.

rather nice. this zoo has a decent variety of animals, especially the manatees, and we saw most of them. I just wish they had asian and Australian animals as well. zoo unfortunately does not have its own metro station, and you have to walk 12 minutes to get there from the nearest metro station!! also there's a whole area of the zoo that has no animals whatsoever. also wish the educational signs were in more languages. and please give the Jaguars more room!!. the café in the African area was also overpriced and used plastic cups! we're in Paris, for goodness sake! the grand rocher should also have some wild caprines living there. since it is on the edge of both the European and African biozones, maybe chamois on one side and aoudad on the other?? also wish there was some sort of transport system around the zoo. overall would recommend but only if you aren't sensitive about animal welfare. also wish gift shop items were less expensive. overall 3/5.

A very cool zoo. Although there aren't as many animals as you'd like, you can still see, for example, a white rhinoceros, a manatee, or an arapaima. The indoor greenhouse is very well done. When you enter, you're immediately transported to the jungle with high humidity, birdsong, and the aroma. I definitely recommend visiting.

Wow, this is a great Zoo for the most part. . . Just a couple of draw backs, one being the very small enclosure for the leopards 🐆 🐾 very sad.! And sadly the Wolves were very stressed out, from loads of school kids banging on the glass viewing windows too 🐺 which was very upsetting, not just for the wolves, but also for experienced animal handlers to see happening, as well as one had an ear problem that needs addressing, just like the itchy Penguins 🐧 which were very itchy and really OTT itching, to the point of baldness 🙄 It was also very disappointing to see the massive Seacow's (Dugongs) Manatees which had such a small space, its criminal and very depressing indeed 😕 They did have a few mammals I have never seen before though, and for the most part the Zoo was well set out with mostly good spaces for many of their animals 🦒 🦓 🦏
