Europe offers many different cultures, sites and environments to look around and explore when you go on holiday, and not all of these are completely foreign. Just like the US for instance, Europe has plenty of zoos to offer and if you’re a fan of animals then these can make for a great day out that all the family can enjoy. Here we will look at some of the top zoos for you to look around and explore. If you’re nearby and on holiday, then be sure to drop in and look at the wildlife.
Berlin Zoo:
Berlin is one of the top European zoos and one of the top tourist destinations in Berlin itself. This is the oldest German zoo, and also one of the world’s very largest. Here you’ll be able to look around at 15,000 animals – an impressive selection by any standards.
Zoo De La Palmyra:
Created in 1966 this is one of the most highly recommended zoos in Europe. This is also one of the top European zoos thanks to its commitment to introducing the animals back into their natural habitats. The animals are also interactive and you can even feed the Giraffe.
Barcelona Zoo:
Another of the top European zoos that offers activities and interaction with the animals. Among other things you can enjoy dolphin shows, picnic areas, pony rides and more.
Longleat Zoo:
Longleat in England is more safari than zoo, which makes it a different entry on our list of top European zoos. This one lets you drive through enclosures of lions and wolves, and lets you get out to feed reindeer and other animals. It also has rides and activities, a maze and more making for a great day out. It’s worth visiting too as it’s located right by stone henge which is another point of interest for tourists coming to Europe.
Prague Zoo:
Prague zoo is another top European zoos and a well known entry. With a vast selection of animals of course, as well as various shows and events and children’s zone (containing a children’s Zoo filled with safe animals for kids to play with and feed), there’s plenty to do for a whole day. At the same time this is one of the top European zoos because it offers more than just animals – also letting you see a selection of exciting fauna in the ‘Indonesian Jungle’ and ‘Monkey Island’ pavilions.
