Great night in at the Wild lights, did not add many photo's as do not want to spoil the experience for anyone else. Highly recommend, great for families with kids of all ages. Loads of food options on site(slightly overpriced IMO) We wanted to see all the displays which required us having to walk through parts we had previously seen earlier. Great experience, all the staff were so friendly and very cheery with only added more positively to our experience!! Highly recommend, and hope anyone reading gets to enjoy this experience!!

We had a wonderful time at Dublin Zoo — truly one of the best family experiences in the city! The zoo is beautifully laid out, spacious, and easy to explore. What really stood out was the incredible variety of animals you rarely see elsewhere: Okapis, Asian wolves, snow leopards, and majestic gorillas. Each enclosure feels thoughtfully designed, offering great visibility for visitors of all ages — even the little ones can see everything easily. There are lovely picnic areas, plenty of benches, and a good mix of food stands if you prefer a snack on the go. The children’s playgrounds — both outdoor and covered — are fantastic for a little break between exhibits. We also loved the dinosaur section, which adds a fun and educational twist to the visit. Tickets cost around €22–25 per person, and you’ll want to allow at least 2–3 hours to fully enjoy the zoo without rushing. A perfect day out for families, animal lovers, and anyone looking to spend a relaxed, inspiring afternoon surrounded by nature and wildlife!

One of my favorite zoo's that I have visited. I went on a monday so it was not too busy. I bought tickets in advance and there was no line to get in. They have a great collection of animals and even some species I had not seen before such as the Chinese Dhole and the Aye-aye. All the enclosures are very natural and spacious. Signing has lots of information and I believe there even is an audio tour. Since I went on a monday there were no scheduled animal talks but there were a few volunteers that walked around and they told us plenty about the animals. There were a few food options but not everything was open. Beware of the many seagulls when you have a meal ;) Something they can improve on was the cleanliness of the toilets. The ones I used were often broken and/or dirty. Overall I had a wonderful day and I will absolutely come back for another visit.
