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.

One of the best zoos I’ve ever visited. The space provided for the animals is second to none, and the staff are consistently friendly and courteous. The talks are engaging, particularly the elephant presentation, and the variety of animals at Dublin Zoo is truly impressive — far better than what I’ve seen in Sydney or London. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend a visit. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you.

Great day out. Lovely time of year to visit, not too hot so the animals aren't hiding out of the sun. Alot of food/icecream places are closed but didnt bother us but just note to bring snacks. We ate at the meerkat restaurant at the end. We got to see them setting up for wild lights, looks beautiful

A fantastic day out for all the family. We visited during the week in term time and it was practically empty which we loved. A HUGE mix of animals to see and some great little cafes. Only downside is the lack of seating near animal enclosures - but plenty in the picnic areas. Relatively flat route. We spent around five hours in total here.

This is a wonderful Zoo with a large variety of animals. Clean, easy to navigate, fun. The dinosaur exhibit was amazing. Lots of fun facts shared everywhere about the animals. Plenty of toilets all over and places to eat. There is a small family farm for the little kids and lots of playground around for the kids to play. Buy tickets in advance to save time and money. Overall a fun place for the kids to visit.
