Bristol Zoo Gardens: Awarded 'Zoo of the Year 2004' by the Good Britain Guide, Bristol Zoo Gardens is the fifth oldest zoo in the world and the oldest outside of a capital city, and a long established major tourist attraction in Bristol. Bristol Zoo Gardens is more than a fun-filled and stimulating day out for all the family. . . It's a place to find out about animals in the wild, especially those which are endangered.
Spend a fun-packed day with over 400 amazing species from lions to love beetles. With most of the exhibits under cover, you can enjoy your visit whatever the weather. Allow 2-5 hours for your visit.
Experience animal encounters and feeding times. Try to beat the animal record breakers in the Zoolympics.
As well as our daily, year-round events which include face painting, animal encounters and our Zoolympics trail, we will also be introducing two new animal shows this year that will run throughout the day on the main lawn.
Wheelchair-friendly: 20 wheelchairs and 2 electric scooters are available for hire. Please phone to pre-book 0117 974 7357. .
