Full description

At the ARTIS Amsterdam Royal Zoo, nature, culture, and heritage come together. Every tree, creature, building, microbe, and planet has its own story. ARTIS has been telling these stories since 1838, and each day they are born anew. Experience it all for yourself with your entry ticket. Stroll through the historical city park with its centuries-old trees and wealth of plants. Delight your taste buds at de Plantage, a café-restaurant. Relax in a chair near the fountain on Artisplein. Experience nature and discover its significance for civilization, because a better understanding of nature fosters a greater respect for all the life around you.

It was about a 15 min walk from our hotel but i’m sure you can get the number 15 tram that literally drops you off down the road. Its a lovely zoo and the animals looked good, only thing that concerned me was the elephant which was quite distressed as it wanted to be let out of its cage, the elephant was eventually let out and looked happy enough then.

Really good zoo, we spent about 5 hours walking around, arriving at 1:30pm and staying until closing (6pm) but I honestly wish we had of gone earlier in the morning so we had more time! It’s such a lovely zoo and the restaurant was good too but a little bit pricey.

Great way to use up a day, lot of variety of animals to see, very clean and well organised zoo. There were plenty of places to stop and rest and the gardens were just amazing. The animals looked well cares for in suitable environments. I even saw animal babies with their mom, which tells me the animals are really well taken care of.
