Best Zoo in portugal

P	Peter Idowu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The kids enjoyed it here. We visit in Portugal in February and there was a handful of things to do so we decided to go to the zoo with the kids and they enjoyed it. They have quite a few peculiar looking animals which the kids fascinated over.
L	Luke Ernst on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the strangest but greatest zoo experiences i have ever had. Everything is very close to you. You can feed a lot of the animals. A pelican tried to take food (zoo provided) out of my hand. I ended up throwing the pellets to it and it was catching them out of the air.
W	Wieke Vergeer on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very cute animals, lots of different and unique birds! All looked very well looked after!
T	The GCL on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The zoo was great with most of the animals being in good care but some of the birds were kept in cages too small for them and some even had rats walking in their cages with one of the pheasants even eating a dead one! I also found the zoo to be a little understaffed as we barely saw any staff around the park during our visit which could allow guests to enter animals habitats without being caught, potentially posing a threat to the animals. Overall the zoo is great with many amazing species of birds and mammals that help the conservation of their species but with more funding it could become even better.
R	Roxane G on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went at the end of June 2021. The zoo is well kept and the animals have a lot of space. We got to learn things about crocodiles and witness the otter, primate, penguin and pelican feeding, which was super cute. Would recommend visiting, took us about 2 hours to see all the animals.
L	Linda Sanders on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely fantastic, so much to see and easy to get around. A great time of year to visit.
J	Jordan Baker on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Truly a lovely experience, a really natural set up with very few cages (only for the animals with wings) and even then many didn't! A very Holistic approach to zoo keeping that should be looked at for inspiration by the bigger zoos in the UK that have never impressed like this one. We saw so many lovely moments of activity between animals and they seems genuinely happy unlike the usually zoo experience of sad sleepy animals. All this for a price that's half the cost of UK zoos (my home country) The only downside is from a personal preference and that's in regards to keeping rabbits and guinea pigs together which in our culture isn't done due to fighting but this may be different across the EU.
T	Troy H on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing zoo. We visit zoos all over the world and this is now one of our favorites. The monkey exhibit is amazing. They have several different species in the same large open area, each with their own little island—no cages. The animals seem very well taken care of and were very visible. The zoo itself was not too big but yet there was so much to see and experience. I highly recommend this zoo to anyone visiting. This will be a highlight of our vacation.
