"It's not a bad zoo. It's just very small. The entry fee is also based on that fact which I appreciate (5 euros per adult). I find this price very reasonable considering the selection of animals in there. there is a small shop inside to buy water, ice cream etc."
Haytham Abbas
"The Zoo is small and I can imagine the living conditions for some of this animals are very poor, especially for "winter" animals which have to deal with scorching Cyprian sun. It's a nice place to visit and spend an hour or two but they should improve on the animal habitats."
Nenad Nikolic
"I've had a nice experience, but the zoo was smaller than I expected. Fortunately, it didn't affect my visiting. Despite being tiny compared to other zoos, the diversitiy of animals was really good - monkeys, cows, ducks, geese, patagonian maras (type of rodent), meerkats, hippos, kangaroos, owls, turtles and deers. Worth visiting if you live close by or if you don't know what to do in Limassol."
