Pretoria Zoo

Parking: R30, Adults entrance R120, Kids entrance R80. Beautiful array of animals from Africa and other continents alike. From zebras to koalas, an aquarium to an Australia section, there's enough for a day visit at the zoo! Golf carts are available for R150 an hour, kiddies carts available from R100 for the full day + R20 deposit. There could be improvements to the bathroom facilities. There's also quite a few areas under construction, shut down cable services, no kiddie entertainment operating yet its there, or animals empty habitats but I would assume it is recent and they are preparing for better services.

Entrance fee: adults R120 and kids R80. R90 for students with a valid student card. You get a good welcome at the gate and picture taken, which if you agree upon leaving, you pay R270 for a photo book. Ice cream, snack and refreshments areas throughout You can rent a cart I'd advise you to do so for a better experience - unless you don't mind walking long distances Overall good experience.

My family absolutely loved the day at the Zoo! The gardens and enclosures are clean and well kept, the staff is super friendly and the animals are simply amazing. The zoo has every kind of animal from birds to fish, and reptiles and mammals. The zoo is now a permanent feature on our visits to family in PTAVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes

Thank you for Hosting us, the reception was welcoming, the man doing parking tickets at the gate, to the entrance the ladies were so groomed and switched on , they suggested, offered all we might need as we began our tour, even the staff we met on the way were so helpful, guiding us. Thank you again for good service and keeping the Zoo so well maintained..

It’s clean; safe and not overcrowded. Clean toilets with toilet paper. They can increase the animals and revive the water feature next to the birds area. Kids loved it.Visited onWeekendWait time10–30 min

We were lucky enough to visit over the weekend thanks to Gautrains free spree. The Zoo is huge, very beautiful and was packed. Will definitely be going back. However I wish they had more staff doing their rounds to ensure that people stick to the rules. Parents were allowing their kids to taunt the animals and well they just don't care for cleaning up their mess!!!!!! That was literally the most disappointing part and it had nothing to do with the zoo itself.

The zoo has always been a great experience and are beautifully kept. Some enclosures are empty which is sad, but there is still a great variety of animals that all are well looked after.

The Zoological garden is well organized with adequate signage. There are abundance of animal species to see. The carnivorous section is amazing. There are ambient for taking good pictures; The canopy bridge, the water fall etc The Most Famous Twins in African Tourism enjoyed our stay in the facility and will recommend it for tourismVisited onWeekendWait timeUp to 10 minReservation recommendedYes

A great day adventure for the family young and old Extreme value for money if I could change or ask for something it would be more restaurants and additional golf carts as the wait to get one is rather long It’s a great adventure however once you’ve gotten your cart you can drive around and see all different types of animals from the big 5 to the little penguins and our dangerous reptiles definitely a must visit if your in the area

One of the best zoo's. Being able to rent a golf cart made the experience so much better. The enclosures are large and the animals look well looked after. Grounds need a bit of garden work with weeds. But a really fun experience.
