This zoo remains GREAT. Visit it if you possibly can. The snow leopards, tigers, White rhinos and red pandas are all great. Cafe across the road from the entrance (small wooden hut) is good value .
Loved Dublin Zoo. Spent 3 hours walking round taking pics. Even enjoyed eating breakfast at a table beside the Meerkat in the Meerkat Restaurant .
You have to follow the map carefully to find some animals (red pandas , for example, are tough to locate) but this is a great zoo with lots of very photogenic animals, so bring your camera !
Nice zoo . Not too large, you only need a few hours. Great animals, especially the snow leopard. Worth a visit even though it's a bit further from the centre. Recommended.
I don't think this needs an to be explained. I just love Dublin zoo. Got to see the elephants being fed, all was quiet as it was during the week and got to speak to the zoo keepers. Never gets old.
With the new improvements.. the layout is bigger, better and more suitable for all the animals and I find it as my calm place
Great zoo that is just the right size, although no clear pathway so everyone ends up walking in every direction and it gets confusing
The African Plains area is fantastic, and actually has some of the nicest scenery in Dublin!
Takes a few hours and a lot of walking to get round. Most of the animal viewing areas are good but they use reflective glass which hinders shots of resting areas in some places.
Beautiful zoo . Great foe@kids with play areas . Clean , well kept and very friendly staff .
Really nice zoo . You ought to see the Red panda and Okapi.
It's totally walkable and the distance between different animals is low. It's super easy to spot an animal. Also as of 2015 autumn you can see young of animals like lion or elephant.
Best for Gorilla's, Orangatans, Tigers, Elephants. The African plains area with Zebra, Giraffes and Rhinos etc. Need more Penguins tho. :-D Lion deceased, which was sad. :-(
Very nice but not as great as I expected. But good way to spend afternoon. Make sure to pick day when without rain *which is a challenge in Ireland :)
It isnt too large but very green and naturel place.There is a lion

So expensive but it has a very impressive lake view with a peaceful atmosphere .

Brilliant day out for the kids. Go early on the weekend to avoid crowds.
Brilliant and well worth the price
Don't miss the little show they do at the sea lions ' stand!. It is fun!.
The new gorilla island is open and they've done a wonderful job. Take the time to visit the new baby gorilla too.

African planes when it's sunny
The red pandas are lovely! Didn't even know there was such thing :)
The African sanctuary is very nice.
The T-Rex paddock was a bit of a snooze fest. Even after they brought in the goat .
Expensive for what you get to see which isnt very much - Stephen Rattigan
