Entrance to Rotterdam Zoo

One of Europe's most beautiful zoos, Diergaarde Blijdorp Rotterdam Zoo is a naturalistic oasis where you can see creatures from around the world. Red pandas, tigers, elephants, sea lions, silverback gorillas, and more call this place home. This conservation-minded zoo will have you feeling like you've undertaken an expedition – and you won't even need to leave Rotterdam!

From the butterfly-filled Amazonica to the polar bears of the Ice Cave, you'll be amazed by the animal encounters on offer here. You can even get 'underwater' in the fully covered Oceanium, where you'll watch sharks flit around splashing turtles.

The playful gorilla family calls the African Gorilla Island home, and the Savanna gets you eye-to-eye with giraffes. And there's so much more to explore! This sprawling zoo is full of wildlife secrets and natural surprises, so grab Rotterdam Zoo tickets for the whole family and make a day of it!

And it's not just for show: Rotterdam Zoo also supports a number of conservation projects and is one of the top ten zoos in the field of breeding programs for endangered species.

Skip the cash desk and show your smartphone ticket at the entrance.
