Copenhagen Zoo Reviews

Good but entrance too expensive. Dkk 180 for 9ne adult and dkk 100 for one child (3 year old & +). Doesn't worth the price.

Very nice place. I loved the tower. Animal had lots of space. Oh and maybe you now this but its the only zoo in Europe that has a Tasmanian devil.

Animals have a private place they can go at will. Would rate 5 if the descriptions were in english

Two years ago, this zoo killed a healthy 2-year-old giraffe, claiming that the young male was a surplus animal. That giraffe, named Marius, was not inbred. However, zoo officials said his genes were too common in the zoo population and thus he would be of no use for breeding. So in February 2014, a zookeeper lured Marius away from the other animals with his favorite food, a piece of rye bread. Then a veterinarian shot him in the head with a bolt gun.
This is absolutely disgusting establishment!

Some of the animals needed to have more space and they do a lot to meet that.

Unfortunately, the animals seem to have far too little space in general. One should make more use of the height of the cages. I wonder if you do not occupy the southern field. Or go down on animals and instead see that those who are left get more space. It is unbelievably expensive to eat in there. But you can spend a whole day with the family in there, and possibly. Bring a packed lunch.

Highly recommend that you come here during the summer time! Not as many animals during the vinter season & its quite depressing if there is no sun :)

There are exciting animals that were exciting for both children and adults but the Big and dangerous animals slept almost all the time

The CPH Zoo should notify everyone at the entrance which animals are on display and why some are not. It is quite unsatisfactory to aim for specific sites just to find them temporarily closed without any signs and explanations.

Was a little disappointed there were not many animals out, so there were many enclosures that were empty, know well it is expensive and operate but they could well put the price down a bit, but otherwise nice :-)

Wonderful zoo. With continuous facelifts over the years it's a great and modern Zoo with superb facilities. The new Panda attraction is fantastic, great build!

Lots of baby animals this year, so clearly the animals are well taken care of. The animal feedings and demonstrations are nice (though all in Danish ofc). The animal habitats look good, but for us humans, the exhibits can be a bit lacking... Lots of empty space on the walls where there could be photos, info graphics, or other displays. Especially in the artic zone. One good exhibit that contrasts the above statement is the elephant exhibit. There are lots of details and educational things there

The zoo, regardless of the season, is a wonderful place to go.

The zoo is definitely worth a visit. The view from the top of the tower is really nice.

Copenhagen Zoo is a really great zoo. They have all kinds of awesome animals and they also had a sand sculpture competition going on while we were there which was really cool, they looked incredible. Overall I would definitely go there again. Also if you have a copenhagen card (which I highly recommend) you can get in for free.

Long since I last went to the ZOO, and high praise.
It was easy to get around, with one exception, as the path past the bears ends in a staircase, which cannot be forced by wheelchairs, carts, etc.
The exhibit at the Elephants may really need a vacuum cleaner. It is covered with a thick layer of dust, probably from the elephants themselves.
Otherwise a really good experience.

It was really nice, everyone was nice and the animals had a lot of space, only finding food was a bit difficult (you have to be careful of the seagulls), but it was a great day

There never seem to be too many people, and it's nice and tidy. You got a decent view of all the animals and both of the newer in closures for the polar bears and the elephants are big and there are many viewing spots

Animal care, good care and impressive polar bears ... Worth the visit if you go with children

Always a nice place to spend a few hours.
Just can't understand why 2pcs Pandas should have such a large area when you rarely see them let alone move. The space could well have been used differently so other animals could have been given more space.

Find a way to take up an afternoon in Copenhagen hi. Typical Zoo some exhibits are really cool some look a little rundown. Admissions included with the Copenhagen card if you're using it.

Saw a panda, polar bear, flamingos, Tasmanian devils, kangaroos, pet a llama, and saw many more fun animals of course! Fantastic summer stop for all ages!

Both myself and my little family are really happy about the zoo. It is expensive to buy food and drink but fortunately you have to bring your own.

Good park, but cashless food places do not work with server crashes, it went really bad, although the employee in the sausage cart did everything he could

Looks like intended and not skillful. Africa Enclosure was the only appealing one.

I LOVE the Copenhagen Zoo
But it is an expensive pleasure. However, it can be made a lot more economical if you bring and drink with yourself.

This zoo is amazing. Lots of unique animals I've not seen in other zoos. Most of the animals were very active so they were easy to spot. Check it out if you're in Copenhagen. It's walking distance from the city (2-3 miles).

The pandas were dry not so many animals. Maybe because of Corona

Amazing place to spend some time, especially with the kids. You will see a lot of different exotic animals there, such as flamingos(saw for the first time in my life, so beautiful creatures), baboon, lions, panda and many others. Unfortunately, we didn't see the panda close enough, because it was sleeping (in very funny position:')). Inside there are also some bars, so can have a snack.

Unfortunately, could not visit the zoo, because no dogs are allowed. I can not be good now. I hate such acceptance !! If the dog does not behave, one can still be referred to the zoo. Too bad I did not have a noisy screaming kid instead of the quiet dog. I would be interested in what they would have preferred. But since the zoo apparently should be very good there are still 3 stars.

Really hesitant despite the fact that there were many people. Visited on the culture night, but the little elephants were still awake

It's going to be great when constructions are over. Currently it's just inconvenient walk around.

Poor communication between their customer service regarding the use of EAN number and payment. Gets to know two different things, and therefore has to pay cash.

Really funny. There is both a playground and tasks you can solve, and of course also a lot of exciting animals

I liked the Copenhagen Zoo. I came with my family and friends, the place was well-cared, with lots of things to do with children.

Always nice to visit the Zoo. You don't get too old for that.

Nice place to come and relax while seeing all the lovely animals

If you breed an animal, Have Babies, Name them, Feed & look after them for 2 years to then cull in front of Children and feed to the Lions... YOU ARE WRONG, THIS IS BOTH SICK, WRONG & DISGUSTING And you should be taken to court for Animal Cruelty.
If you know when a baby is born that you will have too many of that animal then allow the animal to stay with Mum for as long as is needed then seperate them and send them to another Zoo or to a scheme that would allow and teach that baby (and any others) to live in the wild..
I cannot quite believe that you would Cull a 2 year old giraffe in front of a group of Children and feed it to your Lions?. Why would you do that??
I would NEVER come to your Zoo. You are Vile and mistreat your animals, For that you should be punished.
Peder Mellor Your Review is wrong. The Zoo admitted to Culling the giraffe as they were over populated.

Well, don't approve that much about having animals in cages but, apart from that it's OK.

Ansich beautiful, but unfortunately very small, not clean enclosure. Is overcrowded very fast. Gives significantly better.

Cozy and nice with some fresh air while walking around in the many plants of different animals

It was lovely and about 10 gr we are looking forward to the construction completion.

Have been visiting with you twice without seeing your polar bears and I am very sorry

Being rebuilt everywhere will probably be good in 1-2 years

We love the zoo in Copenhagen, but as a family with 2 adults and 2 children, a lot of money is spent and the entrance could be done, it is too expensive

Cozy, child-friendly merry christmas with leeks and apples.

Lovely place. Lovely the animal keepers take the time to answer questions about the animals.

Food and drink prices are very very high and there are often queues .. My advice is to bring a packed lunch

Seems perhaps that has gone a little before very park in it, and less focus on animals

Very beautiful and large and beside a park and a very beautiful lake

One of Copenhagen's best deals for families. We simply love the Copenhagen Zoo.

The Arctic Circle housing polar bears is architecturally very modern and beautiful. Visitors gets to follow the polar bears around. Likewise the elephant enclosure. Currently the African savanna area is under construction.

The section of the Arctic circle was dirty and sad.

There were many people and not all were good enough to keep their distance

An intresting variety of animals. Could be cleaner.

Nice, kids friendly place. It is not the biggest zoo I've ever been to, but extremely interesting and interactive

With all the big names in the animal kingdom present, the Copenhagen Zoo is an incredible ride for the whole family. Watch the exciting daily food and climb to the top of a panoramic observation tower in the center of the zoo. Although the animals live in modern cages, many of the original structures have been maintained, making it clear that you are in one of the oldest zoos in Europe.

To much construction in the zoo right now. We were not told that this is happening when buying a yearly card. Should have been mentioned

We love the local zoo and enjoy visiting the pandas

Friendly and service minded staff. There is much to be done for renewal
