Needless to pay the skip-the-line surcharge, as there is only one line to enter. Very beautiful and well-organized zoo. Exciting not only for families but also for adults. We went on a Saturday and there was not an excessive amount of people, in fact we were able to see all the animals in peace.

Sistema di prenotazione e accesso allo zoo veloci e senza nessun intoppo. Purtroppo in molte zone lo zoo è deludente non è il massimo osservare ad esempio leoni o macachi in ambienti di cemento armato per lo meno che sia ricreato un pò il loro habitat.

La compañía, ya que viaje con la mujer y mi hijo!! Lo que menos, que también es importante, es que no había Osos Panda, el mayor reclamo del zoo.

The Zoo was really quite nice. A pity to see so many things closed but it was a great day. On your side very little information regarding the benefits of purchased tickets. We entered, I think, like everyone else waiting in line and then, I found no benefits.
