★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I'm very careful when visiting zoos. I avoid going anywhere where there is a big chance animals are not well taken care of and where they will definitely not have space to have a happy, safe life. Zoo Santo Inácio is one of the best places for endangered animals or rescues to live in. They have a great conservation program and the conditions are great. You can see that all animals are fed properly and are very healthy and happy and rested. It's a wonderful place to visit and see very rare animals like the white rhino, the Asian lion and Humbolt Penguins. There is a tunnel where you can go in and see the lions sleeping or walking over you. There are giraffes, gazelles, lamas, monkeys and even snow leopards. The entrance fee is around 16 euros for an adult ticket. Overall, it's a fascinating place and a perfect place to visit for half a day.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The zoo is soso. Nice channel area, but they could really clean the much touted lion tunnel so that one could actually see things during the feeding. The so-called restaurant is atrocious, three different dishes, all mediocre at best, and not even wine? To make up, there’s a nice playground with a large picnic area once you know that the restaurant is no good.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely place to visit with the kids. I like to visit from opening time (10 am) on, specially during the summer, as you can end your visit close to lunch time and have your meal. You have various places to sit and also areas dedicated to meals.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It is outside of the city, about 8 euros by bolt. 40 something euros for 2 adults and a 3 year old( 2 years free, 3 years euro 10, adults 15.) They have a lot of animals, insects, snakes, different rodents, penguins, tiger, lion, hippo, rhinoceros … The place is huge and you need the time to rest. Small kids can get tired, so having a store helps. The pathways are not paved so sometimes are slippery due to gravel. They have plenty of resting arias with refreshments like ice cream or water and some light Portuguese snacks. There is a fist aid post and plenty of bathrooms clean. Not a bad place though sometimes looks unorganized.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great experience. Zoo de Santo Inacio plays a great role in helping endangered species, and the animals look very happy even though a few of them, for example the tiger doesn’t have as many space as it should. But most of them do have space. The people who work there are very nice, and they treat the animals very well. There are so many animals to look at and to appreciate, and the best part is that you can see the lions napping on top of tunnel you can walk through.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Good:
*Parking available.
*Spacious place, good variety of different species.
*Very interesting for families and children.
*Animals conditions ok (having in consideration that its not their natural habitat).
*Friendly personnel.
Potential to improve:
*Additional sitting spaces, advised, to be installed along the park (specially appreciated by elderly people in hot days).
*Restaurant meals could be improved.
* 8€ for one picture should be re-evaluated (since color booklet not an added value for adults)
But a place to return in the future

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The zoo is amazing with lots of space for the animals and very well taken care.
It was a nice surprise in an unexpected location. The prairie dogs walk freely around the place and the kids just love follow them a peek into their wholes in the ground.
The tunnel that crosses the Lion's place is great idea and you get a chance to be face to face with or just underneath a lion.
A great place to go with kids.
