    Beautiful zoo, easily a full day visit. Most of the enclosures are the open type, which is nice. Try to not miss the feeding times. The restaurant and café areas are great too.

    As a zoo lover, i love this one. Animals have very large spaces and you can see them closely. Feeding times are further interesting. Polar bear must not be missed.

    Best zoo in Europe! Lovely children's zoo too, where you can feed the lamb and goats. Don't miss it. One big minus though now that the amazing Bao Bao has sadly passed away: we need a new panda soon!

    his zoo is the oldest zoo in Europe and the most visited, as well. It is very beautiful and big, they take in a lot of kinds of animals; the aquarium and the canivore's house are special places.

    Best Zoo ever! Small and easy to walk in a couple of hours, and the animals often seem to live in a very natural environment (ok still a prison, don't get angry with me). The aquarium is also nice!

    One of the best bits of our trip to Berlin! Well worth it even if you’ve been to other major zoos before. You can easily spend half a day (or more!).

    Go in the spring and you will be transported into a children's book full of happy animals. The zoo architecture is very cute & classic as well.

    Children play zone is amazing, nice surrounding, fantastic collection. Really worth spending all day there. Animals are nicely highlighted, especially hippos and sea lions. Sadly giant panda died.

    Especially for kids a cool&funny event. Don't miss the daily animal feeding hours a couple times a day. Ask for the time-table at the entrance gate. Children under 2 are free💕

    Amazing! Great place for children and their parents! Do not forget to stock up a bottle of water because there is the only one restaurant at the Zoo territory.

    One of my favorite sights in Berlin. Many of its inhabitants were born in the zoo (usually a sign of well-adapted animals). Don't miss the feeding times!

    A nice zoo overall. Felt really sad for the lion, pacing mindlessly back and forth with people 2 meters away screaming. That cage and situation is cruel to the animal.

    One of the most beautiful zoos I’ve been to. Pretty much a botanical garden. The animal enclosures are mostly open so you can see them up close.

    Best thing to do with kids in Berlin. Very different vibe here compared to Communist Tierpark in East Berlin. Zoo is a lot more urban

    Best day in Berlin was when we visited the zoo. You will need about 3 hours to see all the animals.. bring your snacks with you!

    Don't forget to buy a ticket for the Aquarium as well - even if you're not into fish, there are other animals which you don't see every day. I was amazed.

    knut's mom is here! also, you get to stand really close to the animals (as for every zoo, if you can check the feeding schedule, it's fun to see a lion devouring a huge piece of meat)

    The best zoo I've been to. Not for its scale or the numourous animals it holds, but the aesthetics and ethics I can learn from the experience. Truely built not just for the sake of people but animals.

    A lot of different animals and zones, "contact zoo" with little sheep and ponies. We were here in the winter, so most of the animals were in aviaries.

    This amazing zoo is home to the widest collection of species in the world (more than 15,000). This place is also home to more than 1,600 animals. Don't miss The Aquarium and the adorable Giant Panda!

    Very well maintained zoo! Even for a chilly day, most of the animals were out and active - always love the 'eisbaren'!

    Very beautiful and 'clean' park. However it feels like most of the animals are somewhat hidden behind bushes or trees. But nevertheless worth a visit. Absolutely.

    Make sure to take a map,too easy to lose your heading. Nice zoo in summer, still nice in fall, but some animals have poor accommodation inside, while outside would be nice enough.

    It looks nice and kids enjoyed feeding farm animals a lot. But, too many sections were off limits including birds (flew), pandas (redecorating)... It looks almost deserted. Wasn't value for money 😕

    If you're lucky the outside penguins (when you come from the beavers' compound) will let you pet them. / Manchmal lassen sich die Pinguine draußen (auf der Biberseite) streicheln.
