The Tisch Family Zoological Gardens in Jerusalem, the Biblical Zoos Reviews

I'm not a fan of zoos in general, but this place is pretty great. It looks very nice, very clean, the animals look as if they are being well taken care of.

Sad in 2019
There is no access for pregnant women and you cannot even rent a scooter

A fun place!
Great for a day with family

The place is simply amazing to them, full of animals you won't see in other zoos, and the surprise at the end .....

Beautiful, but far too expensive for a modest family

Nice zoo, big. We need to gather strength to get around everything. The terrain is gorse. A children's train runs through the territory. The entrance ticket is a little expensive.

A nice place to add new things every year but must come on holidays with lots of patience and have a crazy amount of people every day all day long

Lovely zoo. Clean and big. A lot of shadow. Lots of lovely animals

Very large zoo very pleasant to visit, the animals look very fit, I loved this place, ideal for family holidays and even alone, there are 3 courses (with the map), the course 1, 2 and 3 hours, pity that there is not a complete course to see all the animals.

All animals are old and nothing new for years. Not accessible to families with babies.

Lovely place, full of animals, great fun for big and small

Very nice zoo, lots of animals, the ground are well kept, nice attraction for children

Wonderful, huge, green park. There you can spend many hours and not notice it. Very interesting, many animals are kept almost free. A very interesting experience of entering the cage for predatory birds is that huge eagles of different kinds fly freely around the aviary and there is no barrier between them and humans. A very large collection of animals, many cubs. Teddy bear, giraffe and small monkeys are adorable. Zoo very much. We hope to return here and again.

Plenty of animals need a full day
No places to drink in the tracks
There was a nightmare in August

Zoo liked Zoo 5 stars a little
But a terrible aquarium
Three fishes Not interesting at all
Why, in principle, in Jerusalem aquarium? To carry water
More corridors than aquariums
Dreary place

Well maintained but very expensive! Entrance for 2 adults + a child cost 164 shekels. Kiosk products inside the zoo also very expensive - twice and more relative to normal standard price.

Wonderful place !!!! I have no words to express how amazing and how there !!!

Beautiful views, large enough for most of a day, interesting animals in comfortable surroundings. A lot of new stuff since I last visited a couple of years ago.

Big, nice zoo. Not enough shade on a hot day. A canopy could make life easier for visitors

Great place, animals are very close. Purely and the water is everywhere.

An excellent zoo only that most of the route is not shaded. Even though we arrived early it was too hot. It is recommended to start from Noah and then continue the tour because the second part of the zoo is actually relatively shady.

Lots of interesting animals There is a small park in the middle, a little souvenir shop will happen in a very interesting short

Lovely place. Very spacious. Lots of gorgeous animals in a beautiful natural environment

We traveled during the Corona period so many shows were not open and also the train does not work which means you have to walk a lot !!
The animals seem to be tired and barely moving but the kids are having fun.
They should add refreshment and drinking corners.

And there is almost no chance of finding parking.

I really like going there with the kids
Even during the holidays it is pleasant

Fun for kids and entertaining
Great for exploring animals

I already know what a real zoo should look like. Bravo for interestingly themed exhibitions.

Learning new things, every visit there sharpens the connection of animals to the Land of Israel

In the zoo did not have time. Were in the aquarium. It has been open since the summer of 2017. I really liked the oceanarium.

Very nice place even if some animals were missing or slept well hidden when I came! Zoo beautifully maintained! I liked to see the elephants finish breaking a trunk of palm to eat inside and I liked to read moreover that the penguins present are mostly sabras!

nice place
Entry prices are quite high. You can search for promotions through all kinds of organizations. An annual subscription also pays off if you go a few times.

It is the most interesting and comfortable garden in the country. Highly recommended.

A very nice place, many different animals. Parking problem, small and small kiosks.

Beautiful and well-kept, it is a pity that there are no means to get around

Nice place to spend time with the kids. The highlights were the darkroom with the night animals, the feeding of parrots in fruit juice that the children can feed (at a cost of NIS 5) and the bridge hanging over the African area with the giraffes

A truly amazing place !! Overseas atmosphere. Special animals!

You could spend more on the spot relative to the high entrance fee and the large number of visitors

Very nice and modern. The aquarium as of now is still in the opening process and is not running at full capacity, so there are many exhibits amd tanks that are empty.
Pretty sure that when it officially opens it will be much better.
All in all a fun visit.

A place with a wonderful atmosphere, pleasant and interesting, ideal for families with children and accessible for the disabled. Recommend a hat and water bag

Beautiful zoo, good option for a date, family outing or just for a walk.
Around 17$ per adult. The family year pass is usually the way to go if you're a local.

Great zoo. Very well mantained. Ticket for an adult around 55 shekels, and 44 for children over 3 years.

Great place. When there were alarms with us and there was no schooling for the children they invited us for half price. Thanks .. Hope you start saving Saturday.

A lovely place, very beautiful and lots of animals. We had a lot of fun

A great day. Not the largest zoo, but still a great experience. Many enclosures you can enter. Large playplace for children. Petting zoo. Elephants. Penguins. African animals. Various primates. "Train" for people tired of walking. Noah's Ark exhibit.

Very invested, always renewed during exhibitions and always fun to visit again!

Maxim and Ahla. Only a train is missing every few minutes instead of every half hour an hour

A stunning world of animals that live in well-groomed enclosures, and are not at all embarrassed by the amazed public looking at them with affection, admiration, apprehension or curiosity. A pleasant pastime for the whole family, young and old, and even the teenagers (my children), whom I hardly brought here, were very pleased with the trip.

Beautifully and professionally organized. One of the most beautiful zoos I ever visited!

Very good zoo on the basis of it has a mission and fulfills it.
The exhibit are large and the animals are comfortable in confinement. The African herbivore exhibit is a good compromise giving the animals room and having them visable.
The zoo is on a steep hill, so they have an excellent way for elderly to get around.
This place has the most room inside the exhibit I have seen. They should be commended for keeping the animals somewhat comfortable

Personally, I don't like zoos - lions and elephants, for instance, should have hundreds of times the amount of space they have here - but a lot of the animals do have open areas and are in good condition and the grounds are very lovely.

Large, good asphalt road. A few animals and 130 year old turtle died during our time!

This is a beautiful zoo with a large variety is animals, including fish and reptiles.

One of the largest and most diverse zoos in Israel. Highly recommended for young people and adults. It is also possible to do the aquarium which is located close to the zoo.

Excellent zoo!
Clean, tidy, lots of explanations about the animals and what they do to preserve and help them.
Very educational for the little ones too.
Since it is in Jerusalem then a lot of ascents and walking that is not easy in the heat. I would recommend visiting at times when the sun is less scorching because in my opinion there was not enough shade.
Very accessible with strollers.
Convenient parking although during rush hour a long walk to the entrance is possible.

Good place to wander with the family. Although the zoo is loaded with visitors, you can always find a nook where to sit.
With a map in your hand, you will not get lost even on such open space and the intricacies of paths. Everything is harmonious and calm.
There are no days to go to the zoo because of its overload: Pesach-all days and Sukkot-all days.
Caution! - pirated prices for all kinds of snacks such as ice cream and key chains.

A bit crowded on holidays but nice for a family day together

It was great lovely but some animals are missing...

The most interesting olive garden that is beautiful and there are also animals that have become extinct
