Safaripark Beekse Bergen Review

Had a wonderful day with a lot to see. The animals looked happy in their big enclosure. We really enjoyed it and will definitely go back!

The best Dutch zoo. Entrance includes car safari, bus trip and boat trip. Most animals are happy in their stay. The black bears and spotted hyenas do require more distraction.

Nice zoo. The zoo excels with their car safari and boat safari, but the walking safari (normal walking tour through the park) is not inferior to the other two options. Those animals have relatively much space. The park is very large so you can enjoy a full day there. The sanitary facilities can, in my opinion, be improved / modernized.

I think it is a unique experience to drive or sail between these animals with a beautiful simple environment of how most animal species live and also a nice combination of freedom and safety.It is a pity that most playgrounds are for the older children, but yes you come fortunately not with such beautiful animals and surroundings chapaue

A lot of varieties of African animals and birds. A great show with birds !!! In the park, travel by bus and by God, accompanied by a guide. Lots of cafes. I liked it very much, I recommend everyone to visit a wonderful park!

Most beautiful zoo in the Netherlands very well maintained

Very nice park, holiday park. Nice houses. Good service at the house when ordering meals, we were very satisfied.

Nice experience especially the part of the giraffes .. do find that the employees at the park speeding. Furthermore, the. Worth

Very nice to do once.
Being able to see all the animals well from the car, by boat and on foot. The staff are friendly. It was, probably due to corona, nice and quiet and everything was clearly visible

Nice park, but very busy. But definitely recommend one!

I went to Beekse Bergen yesterday with my family. The boat and bus tours are all in Dutch. There are regular stops to give information, of course, all in Dutch. This really just meant our tour was regularly delayed while we listened to white noise.

I accept that that I'm in your country and you're not obliged to accommodate me but, if you're setting yourself out as a tourist destination, you probably shouldn't alienate your non-Dutch speaking visitors. I would have happily paid extra for a headset that gives information in English. This really isn't a new concept.

Not surprisingly, I had no problems booking and paying for my tickets in English....

On another note, the food is very average and extremely expensive. The smart visitor will bring a packed lunch!

Sorry, but I can't recommend Beekse Bergen to the non-Dutch speaking tourist.

It's a nice place outdoors kind of crowded but mostly spaced. Nice Africa type animals suggestions add more trails because it's like a giant circle that makes people feel pushed to the next location and with covid just cant stand people all up in your personal space.

A wonderfully spacious park with the possibility to drive through it by car. If you don't want that, you can also go for hours on foot.
New animals regularly. Friendly staff too

Great park, nice safari with the family, bl we have done all routes, the bus, the car, the boat. Enough to see there to make your day.

Nice safari park BUT.
The animals had very stomachs and feathers / fur was badly cared for .. they seemed sick ... looked very sad especially the dromedary, ostrich!

The roads were very badly constructed, pits and stones, causing damage to one car.

But it was a lot of fun at the giraffe section !!

To be repeated

We did the safari by car. Super. Cheeta almost jumped on the hood and the giraffes looked inside!
Only found the roads to be very bad. Many holes.

Beautiful park where the animals are usually clearly visible and many play options for the children.

Had a nice day. Measures around corona very well arranged.

Nice park, spacious and excellent accommodation for the animals.

Beautiful place, many animals, safari with car, bus, boat and overnight stays if desired. Definitely worth it!

Visit by car too much waiting, half of the animals not seen ... Could not go around by boat because too much waiting at the safari in addition too expensive

Great park, the money is worth it. Going through the park in one day is athletic.

Great day out for all the family. Nice that you can view the park in so many different ways, on foot, by boat and by car.

Only did the safari, but my expectations were sadly not fulfilled. Full of cars and not many animals.

Nice park. I just do not understand in the present time that they do not properly shield those trash cans or have them closed properly. Wasps suffer a lot. Unfortunately.

Spacious animal enclosures, constantly evolving, friendly staff, animal welfare are central

Despite the Corona measures had a nice day. In the beginning at the start of the walking route with all people a little too busy for my liking, but gradually that resolves itself. Too bad the boat and the bus could not now. Furthermore, it remains a nice park and especially the area where the ring-tailed lemurs roam free!

Had a great experience in the park, staff and customer support were very friendly and helpful.

Beekse Bergen is so much more than a zoo. Due to the spacious layout, you can travel by car, bus or boat through Asia or Africa. But you actually see just as much on foot. It is recommended to stay in the holiday park, the overnight stays include access to the park. Then you don't have to go through it all at once. We were there during the winter dream decoration. Nice and winter and decorated with lights, music and atmosphere. In short, recommended even if you often visit other zoos like us.

It is a nice day Safari park especially in the Safari bus it was very educational and fun with the guides

New part where the animals have more freedom has become really beautiful

I love this park. Unlike many zoos, most animals here really have a lot of space. It is a wonderful walk where you see something different every time. This is also taken into account in the corona time. We immediately took out a subscription to be able to practice our hobby photography. Absolute must.

Very good price / performance ratio
The car safari was not mine, otherwise top.

Free nature. Everywhere shops drink quiet food. Children can also play freely. Nice to see nature with animals. I love myself.

Fantastic park with many options, such as the safari bus and the tour by boat.

Remains a great park, the show times and driving times can be better coordinated

Although it was quite inclement weather we have had with the kids anyway pleasure to this day. In the summer we will definitely go again.

My right ankle strap torn but still a very nice day out. We could borrow a wheelchair for 50 deposit but no rental costs. Very nice animals and beautiful routes.

Make sure it s not a rainy day when you go there. The animals hide and it s difficult to find them. I particularly like this place cause they seem to care about the animals and make sure they have their own space.

Nice, beautiful and varied zoo. You can see the park by foot, boat, bus or your own car.

Beautiful park, unique within the Dutch zoos chain. Spacious lodgings and animals where really beautiful and attention is given to. Definitely recommended if you want something different than Artis.

A very nice park and for little money. You can drive through the park by car, on foot or by bus and boat tour. We recommend. Were there with our kids since 10, 8, and 2years all three had a lot of fun.

it's a really Nice zoo in my opinion one of the best. the 3 safaries are very good and it's a nice change of pace going in the boat bus and walking. there are enough points on where you can get something to drink.

We struggled to find the park entrance. Bad signage!
Park is spacious, animals have a lot of space.
The exit coin is quite pricey 9.50 euros.

Verse Bergen remains unique because you can drive through the wild animals by car.

Nice and beautiful animal park. Playgrounds and eateries enough. A trip with your own car is fun.
We had no time for the boat trip and the bus. You can easily keep yourself sweet for a day here.

File driving on safari? Little or no animals to see? Worthless. Fled from the park within an hour.

a big safari park with plenty of room for the animals, a walking~, boat~, car~ and bus safari and several restaurants and playgrounds including play possibilities on the route.

Nice park enough to see, also for children enough entertainment. The car safari really a must.

The park itself is still nice but you have to buy an exit coin of 9.50 a bit expensive.

Lovely to spend a day with the children! Purchased relatively cheap entrance tickets through Social Deal and did 3 of the 5 safaris. Especially the car and boat safari were great!

+ Beautiful spacious park to walk around with a toddler. He can easily lose his energy.
+ You see the animals react more naturally in a spacious setup.
+ Beautiful decoration.
+ The birds of prey show has been recommended for years.
+ Enthusiastic staff who would like to give explanations.

- you will notice it in your legs if you have been there all day.
-input for the bus is not convenient if you have a bad leg.
-file driving with your own car, therefore prefer to do the bus or boat safari. Much more relaxed
- the toilet can be cleaned more frequently on busy days.

Of course it remains wild animals, so you sometimes run the chance not to see all the animals during a safari.
Tip: take a small binoculars for the kids. Sometimes the animals walk a bit further away.

Had a wonderful day with my twins of 3. Done the walking safari
It was 24 degrees and all animals outside. Very neat and well maintained park. Long queues at ice cream and snack points due to insufficient (and slow) staff. Half of the cash registers are not staffed. Furthermore, a must for young and old!

For the first time been beautiful park very to my liking had something for everyone by car or by bus or by boat or walking through the park a must

Boring. Little to do and especially many empty plains. Don't expect Efteling, but a little action is allowed. Especially very outdated

Currently (October) the park is open from 10:00 to 17:00 7 days a week (the park is open longer during the summer). Entering the area (behind the barrier) by car it is important to buy a "parking ticket" which costs 9.5 , without which we will not be able to leave the car after sightseeing. An adult admission ticket costs 26 (bought online 24 ).
I spent 5 hours in the park (At that time I covered the route by car, then on foot, and finally by return by boat). You can also choose a bus trip. Huge space, animals are not "stuffed" or closed in cages as in the ZOO. I think there could be more in such a large area. As for the boat, in my opinion it is best to decide on the end of the walking tour (when we go the whole route to get to the beginning). It took me 1.5 hours to go from beginning to end, with stops to admire the animals (one way). I came back by boat. While sailing, the guide tells trivia about animals, in Dutch.
While sightseeing by car, you can download an application that tells about the animals you pass by in the chosen language . Do not keep the windows open.
The biggest attraction for me when visiting the car are of course giraffes.
When walking, I was most happy for the Lemurs that run next to the visitors, but I thought they would be more sociable.
If someone wants to feed goats, I recommend "arm yourself" with 50 cent (you can buy crisps).
It is forbidden to feed animals in the park. I do not know if the ban includes seagulls but they themselves "steal" food in the open. I stole fries .
I don't have a comparison to other safari parks yet, but I recommend going to that.

It is highly recommended, as you can drive there by car, bus, on foot and by boat.

Nice and cozy zoo
Ideal for people with children
Lots of leeway

Fantastic zoo .it's a must to visit. Also make sure to take the safari experience either with your own car or at least with their own bus .

Great, beautiful trip made with own car, boat and bus, nice driver who had a lot to tell. We also took a brisk walk the next day. Bird of prey presentation admired. Nice eateries en route

Please do not stay here, corona measures are not complied with by the park or visitors. Few, if any, effective measures have been taken to this end, and keeping a distance is often not even possible! You are also through the car safari which was also disappointing ... really expected more.

A beautiful, well-kept park. There is a lot to experience!
Few toilets! Horeca did not use it.

Nice to be able to explore the park in so many ways! Furthermore, a lot to do for children with playgrounds and intermediate paths where you can clamber.
Animals can be seen well.

Beautiful park with a walking boat and car safari enough space to let all animals walk / swim freely. It remains a fantastic day for young and old

Overpriced, no lion seen..only 100 deer species. Visited Avifauna three days earlier .. Much better, more fun and very much cheaper

Great nice that they are now open until eight o'clock so enjoy extra long!

Very nice park, the safari by bus is recommended !!

Today I went to the safari park, which immediately noticed that it was super busy, and everyone was sent in the same direction. With as a result congestion, no one who could keep to 1.5 meters. It was far too busy for that. The safari park is large enough to give everyone space, but if you send everyone in the same direction at the same time, you can expect problems.

nice safari park to go with the kids. Lots of play options and lots of information about the animals. A pity that sometimes animals are very far away.

Sooo cool to drive between the animals in your own car; E come very close to

very nice and friendly staff really i thank them all for all they service beautiful park that you can have a good safari with your own car or bus or boat this my first time and sure i will come again highly recommend

We have done the walking safari. A nice experience.
