The Giraffes and tigers were kept in the most suitable locations to enjoy the beauty of their natural habitat and the elephants made my day.
In India, it is becoming quite rare to afford these huge, all the time hungry species but they are always a pleasure to watch. I loved the zoo and never ever feel that the zoos are expensive. Wish to visit more of such places.
Very beautiful and quite large zoo. Animals have big run-outs and are fine. Price is little bit higher in comparison to Prague zoo, but its for animals :) Gondvana pavilion can be floated through by the boat :-) very good attraction. The zoo is 10 minutes from city centre by feet.
First time there and got really impressed. Huge sweeping area for many animals that mostly looked "happy". Yet, sometimes the typical "Zoo" feeling came up, i.e. cages seemed to be too small, animals showed abnormal behavior. Nevertheless, I can recommended this charmingly arranged place, especially the "Gondwanaland".
Beautiful zoo with much to see and do. Reasonably priced entry, food, and souvenirs. Plenty to see and easy pathways between exhibits makes for a relaxing trip where you can see everything in one day.
Zoo Leipzig is the most amazing and beautiful zoo I've ever been to! Such a tremendous project! It has a huge territory and designed accordingly to every corner of the planet, where animals actually live, so it looks more like a natural space. And of course, amount of different animals and their species is impressive 😃👍 I've spent over 5 hours there. That's how much time you need to see everything.
A great place with lots of diverse animals. They are also currently trying to upgrade the zoo to be even better.
While the price can feel a bit steep it is well worth knowing that visitors can enter all areas on one ticket - this includes the aquarium, the primate enclosure (+ feedings) and Gondwanaland. A great zoo with several excellent, large and enriched enclosures, a diverse feeding and activity schedule and lots of informational talks (do note: zookeepers sometimes feed during their talks, so if you're interested in specific animals going to the talk can be well worth it).
One star gets knocked off for the persistent presence of horrible GDR-era enclosures, some of which still house animals. I know the zoo is working on creating great new spaces, but in the meantime some zoo inhabitants are still in very unfortunate environments.
Impressive zoo. We did a little boat tour in their tropical section, which I thought was an adorable idea. I wish I was a kid again because this zoo would have been a dream for me back then.
Wonderfull wildlife collection. The aquarium has the most beautiful and amazing aquatics I have ever seen
Always an adventure! Although pricey, it's more than worth the money. Definitely one of a kind!
