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.

Zhanna Krasynskaya

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!

Chris Kuzan

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.

Деница Йовова

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

Mónika Gulyás

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!

NeverwinterMoon

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.

No More Halos

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

ozge ozbek

very heart breaking place to visit. i am very sorry for the polar bear amd other animals, polar bear was so lonely and has very small place to live , was looking so sad.my 5yo daughter feels the same

Sergey Kornienko

Magic place with rich history. Our visit took almost whole day and all our strengths) But it worth it!

Alla Floreo

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

Carl Griffin

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

Balazs Faluvegi

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.

Jakub Kratina

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

Victoria S ⚅

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.

Ольга????

???????????? A unique zoo with dozens of 100-year-old heritage buildings and art pieces. ???? In the city centre, 2 minutes walk from Heroes' Square. ????????????

Gyozo Nagy

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.

Rosemary Marr

Went to Zoo today had a grt time baby elephant beautiful spent 4 hrs there had a grt time very good Zoo 100per cent better than Edinburgh Zoo . Well worth visiting.

Karolina Kelly

Very nice little zoo right in the heart of Budapest. Cute koala and elephants ????

Maxim Turansky

Animals are in good conditions (not best). Must see: giraffes, rhinos, elephants, hippos and red pandas

Janni Posta

Beautiful zoo for a very good price. If you're near Heroes Square then stop by and take a look at the koalas.

Krisztián Vértes

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

Tereza DaSka

Nice place! Good for children! Animals, fun. But interesting for school clases becose there is a museum with history etc

Ekaterina

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 Szentpeteri

Best place with children, there are always new attractions to see. Seal show is always a must.

Janos Fejos

Well built and maintained. Many activities for children. IT'S not Hungarian wallet friendly .

Lielle B.

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 .

We Love Budapest

In case you’re an animal maniac, take a stroll in Budapest Zoo , where you can experience the rushing lifestyle of sloths up-close.

Anton E.

Wonderful place. A little smaller than Prague Zoo , but very nice too

Burcu Ozdemir

Very nice zoo ! U never get bored! It takes 20 min walking from the city center.

Catherine McNeel

Great zoo , cute animals! Lots to see and do inside. It's a really large park . Very kid friendly

Zhanna Krasynskaya

Animals, you can even feed some of them with special food

tiramisu

Not all signs are translated into English, but a good experience overall. The Savannah pavilion is by far the best one.

Veronika

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 Plausteiner

Loved the vulture's enclosure . You can literally walk among the birds.

Tóša Dalibor

The best zoo I've ever seen.

Skokan Cristian

The visit took 5 hours! But totally worth it. The entrance was only 2500 forints.

Lefteris Protopapas

A lovely collection of animals. Worth visiting!

Айван

One of the best organized zoos I've ever visited! Highly recommend!

Daria Ivanova

Not so big as Prague Zoo , but it's interesting too

Konstantin Georgiev

Great zoo experience!!!

Farkas Donát Orbán

Big zoo with a lot of species and it's just getting better and better

Daria???????????? Larina

Really nice place to visit! You can hug a cangaroo here????

Robert Albert

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 Molnar

Recent developments are great!

Josephine Gowans-Eglinton

amazing art nouveau architecture

Jakub L

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 Stefanik

Big variety of animals, garden

Marci Budai

Maybe the most beautiful zoo in Europe.
