4sq SUs BelgiumNovember 12, 2016Opened in 1843, Belgium's oldest zoo is also one of the oldest zoos in the world. Worth a visit, not only because of the animals, but because of its beautiful monumental buildings too.

Alexis van DamSeptember 14, 2014Must visit when in Antwerp. Be sure to check out the tigers, apes, butterflies. The zoo is beautifully situated in the heart of Antwerp. The historic zoo has nice Art Deco buildings.
- Alexander MelhuishApril 14, 2014Maybe the best zoo I've visited! It's lush and green, well laid out with a nice variety of animals in near-natural environments. The aquarium and mammals house are especially good. Go in the spring!Upvoted 4 weeks ago
Alexandros PlexidasMay 12, 2018Impressive! Many species, mostly big sized cages (except for some birds which was sad to watch) and amazing garden arrangements. Worth visiting, especially with children (stroller friendly).
Atif HussainAugust 22, 2015It's a small #zoo but has lots to see. If you know you are bound to visit more than twice in a year then get a family card which allows u free access 365 days a year and other benefits
Petra De WildeAugust 13, 2014We have so much enjoyed our day at the Antwerp Zoo that we got ourselves a family year membership card ! They currently (Summer 2014) have an offer you can't refuse 😊
Best zoo in Belgium! The entrance and restaurant have been recently renovated. Take a look at the big aquarium: in the morning you can see the sun come up here.- Geert SmetsSeptember 15, 2016One of the most beautiful city zoos you'll ever find. The entrance zone has recently been refurbished so that you get a good impression before really entering.
Lau BoJanuary 5, 2015Impressive light sculptures, fire baskets near the entrance and beautiful blue Ara's on your way to the jaguars. Don't expect too much of the restaurant.
See kamApril 30, 2017It's the 1st big zoo I have visited and I was amazed! I don't like in prison animals and some of them looked miserable and it was very sad...but I had the chance to see animals I could not imagined.
Jelle HoogenboomAugust 30, 2014My favorite place is the Nocturama, the nocturnal house, next to the underwater view of the sealions. Take the time to spot aardvark, tamandua, slender loris, etc.
Ioannis PapapetrouApril 12, 2015Very clean zoo with every animal you want to see..A lot families every weekend..The most beautiful is black puma..
Kris GiebensMarch 1, 2015If you live in Antwerp you should treat yourself to a subscription. It's great to have the freedom to stroll through the zoo on a sunny day.
Figen AkinJuly 16, 2017Very big and completely refurbished zoo in the middle of Antwerp, next to the train station. Kids love it
Alisa VanichayakosolDecember 24, 2017Came at 4pm for the Zoo and also Chinese Light but it started at 6pm for another €36 😱 ....
PrithviJune 5, 2012One of the oldest and most visited zoos in the world. Some very nice animals on exhibit.- Jelle HoogenboomAugust 30, 2014Specialized in Congolese species like okapi, Congo peacock and eastern gorilla, the only zoo in the world with this darker gorilla species.
Pieter CollierJanuary 15, 2012There are QR codes all around the place to scan with your mobile and discover a lot more info about the animals! Big fun... loved it.
Karolina MatejkovaMay 21, 2017We visit very often this ZOO and it incredibly improves over time. Definitelly worth of seeing.
in 2016 there will be a lot of construction work going on. This might not be the moment to visit if you’re an occasional visitor.
Marten MeijboomMarch 21, 2010Check this sh*t out!! It's the bomb. The place has hardly changed in 50 yrs, such nice & authentic atmosphere. Insiders tip: Check out all the different birds opposite the entrance, amazing! ;) Read more
Katerina👑🔨💍 IeromonachouJanuary 8, 2020Interesting setting, variety of animals always mixed emotions when you c caged animals.
Les Auberges de JeunesseDecember 20, 2011If you have to find a place where every single Belgian goes at least once in his life, it's here and nowhere else :-)
Take a look at the new area around (and beneath) restaurant "Savanne"!
Nils De SmetAugust 18, 2014A small, but good feeling zoo. Perfect for a summer stroll. Also, penguins.
LenDchikJune 24, 2012Very close to the central station. Worth visiting for sure! Back to childhood ;)
Giulia B.February 4, 2013A TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT, DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME THERE!! Sad and rundown zoo, animals looking quite sad and abandoned, half attractions were closed or not accessible...Still you pay the full price! :-C
