Not the best zoo in the Ruhr-Rhein region but certainly a trip worthwhile. The planners have certainly made the most of the space they have available and animal welfare appears to be very on the list of priorities. Located close to the Rhine, this is a great experience for kids and couples alike and the asking price for entry isn't... More

If you like elephants this is a nice herd and there were 5 babies to see on the day of the visit! More

It's a great day out, lots to see, you can spend the whole day in the zoo. And not expensive at all for entrance. More

Getting to the zoo from the Cologne central station is quite easy. The zoo is smaller than the Duisburg zoo. It is a place to take the little ones, but I have seen better.
