Along with impressive mammals like tigers, orangutans, and the native Mangalica pig, Europe’s largest flamingo flock also lives here, as do myriad reptiles, amphibians, and interesting insects.

Very nice zoo at the edge of the city accessable by metro.It´s located in the park where is nice castle, public bath & smalll lakes.Animals are quite free here and all the expositions are interesting.

Really great place to spend the whole day. The only thing is that all cafes accept only cash and there is no any cash machine inside the zoo. We have no any cash. After 5 hours we became wild hungry!

I was there for the second time, and still that was great. Lots of animals and incredible beauty of nature. However, part of spots were closed due to COVID times.

Wonderful place, plenty of animal species, very clean and I had enjoyable time. I recommend it as a must see when visiting Budapest.

Európa egyik legszebb állatkertje,és egyben műemléki vidámpark!Nem 1 napi program, ha mindent látni akarsz! 2in1:one of Europe's most beautiful zoo and retro amusement park!Not only a one-day program!

The cages seem somewhat tiny at times, but overall nice place. You can see many animals from up close. Make sure to take cash, as cafes don’t accept card payments.

Budapest zoo is an experience! Give it a try! The ticket is very cheap and you can see lots of animals!

Very nice zoo, comfortable, interesting and with many animals. Australian part and giraffes are great. There is also big amount of animals babies.

Huge zoo with enclosures that contain impressive themed architecture. The elephant enclosure is particularly impressive.

I've never understood how is this possible, that much smaller towns in Hungary like Nyíregyháza, Veszprém have way better zoos. But the night walks during some summer occasions are really informative.

The best zoo I've ever been into. Definitely must have. Awesome nature looking place.

🐅🐊🐒 A unique zoo with dozens of 100-year-old heritage buildings and art pieces. 🏰 In the city centre, 2 minutes walk from Heroes' Square. 🌸🌳🌺
Victoria S ⚅October 15, 2015
On of the biggest zoo in Europe.Lot of animals to see,you can feed them,play with them and take photographs.The adult ticket costs 2500HUF.
Gyozo NagyAugust 4, 2021
Cart for 2-3 kids. (10k HUF deposit). Nice range of animals. It will take at least 4 hours to see everything. Indoors open at 10:00.

Very nice little zoo right in the heart of Budapest. Cute koala and elephants 😍
Maxim TuranskyJuly 23, 2017
Animals are in good conditions (not best). Must see: giraffes, rhinos, elephants, hippos and red pandas
Janni PostaJune 2, 2015
Beautiful zoo for a very good price. If you're near Heroes Square then stop by and take a look at the koalas.

Great place for a family outing, art nouveau elephant house, beautiful walkways, Gundel restaurant inside. Frequent animal shows, petting zoo! Kid's friendly.
Tereza DaSkaOctober 15, 2014

EkaterinaAugust 8, 2016
Lots of animals, but this zoo cannot be compared with Lisbon one, where you can walk really near any kind of beast if prey
Gabor SzentpeteriOctober 19, 2019
Best place with children, there are always new attractions to see. Seal show is always a must.
Janos FejosSeptember 10, 2014
Well built and maintained. Many activities for children. IT'S not Hungarian wallet friendly.

In case you’re an animal maniac, take a stroll in Budapest Zoo, where you can experience the rushing lifestyle of sloths up-close.
Lielle B.March 7, 2015
The higlights where the kangaroos with the baby kangaroos in their belly pockets and the giraffes. The restaurant at the entrance (cave restaurant) was disappointing. Other than that, a nice zoo.
Anton E.June 19, 2013
Wonderful place. A little smaller than Prague Zoo, but very nice too
Burcu OzdemirOctober 26, 2017
Very nice zoo! U never get bored! It takes 20 min walking from the city center.
Catherine McNeelFebruary 28, 2017
Great zoo, cute animals! Lots to see and do inside. It's a really large park. Very kid friendly
Zhanna KrasynskayaMay 17, 2015
Animals, you can even feed some of them with special food

Not all signs are translated into English, but a good experience overall. The Savannah pavilion is by far the best one.
VeronikaNovember 7, 2017
Last time i have been here more than 15 years ago..nothing changed..was amazing and became just ok. Dirty and busy place, but nowhere else to go in that city if you are traveling with a kid 😐
Klemen PlausteinerApril 25, 2017
Loved the vulture's enclosure. You can literally walk among the birds.
Tóša DaliborJanuary 13, 2017
The best zoo I've ever seen.
Lefteris ProtopapasJanuary 28, 2017
A lovely collection of animals. Worth visiting!
Skokan CristianMay 5, 2014
The visit took 5 hours! But totally worth it. The entrance was only 2500 forints.

Nice and large zoo. Must visit!
Paul BystrovJanuary 5, 2013
One of the best organized zoos I've ever visited! Highly recommend!

Really nice place to visit! You can hug a cangaroo here😊
Robert AlbertJanuary 22, 2017
Numerous animals in tiny enclosures. Animals showing clear signs of distress, pacing back and forth continually. Nothing to stop morons banging on the glass and distressing them even more. Disgusting
Daniel MolnarApril 7, 2018
Recent developments are great!
Josephine Gowans-EglintonJanuary 23, 2013
amazing art nouveau architecture
Jakub LApril 21, 2019
Worst zoo I have ever visited. More than half of the spaces for animals are empty, the animals live in dirty cages. There is a lot of trash everywhere left by the visitors. Never ever again.
Daniela StefanikAugust 12, 2016
Big variety of animals, garden

Maybe the most beautiful zoo in Europe.
