It was a good experience to see Penguins... They are very active... No separate entry tickets for this ... It is included in the Zoo entry ticket.... Must visit places in Mumbai Zoo... A small cafe is also available inside for food or snacks ... Enjoy 😊

Best part of the zoo on summer days, penguins were amazing and we really enjoyed it!

Never seen before kinda experience from Zoos in India.
Worth the 50 rs for entrance which covers this as well. Loved it and definitely a treat for kids and even elders...

There are a total of 14 penguins in India and you can see 9 of them here. This also happens to be the first and only place in India where two penguin chicks 'Oscar' and 'Oreo' were born. The names of the 7 adults birds are Daisy, Donald, Molt, Flipper, Popeye, Olive and Bubble. They were brought to the zoo in 2016 from Seoul. Though from the start the penguins have been at the centre of political tussle, I am happy that they have survived and reproduced in the artificially created habitat in Mumbai.

I would strongly recommend you visit on a weekday to get a good glimpse of them moving around in the enclosure. There is no separate fee for accessing the Humboldt Penguin Section.

Update: The count is now 12 at the Mumbai zoo with the birth of 3 more chicks. Their names are Alexa, Bingo and Flash.

Update Aug'23: The number is now 15 😊.

Thanks to Mr. Narayan Kamble who recommended us to come during the feeding time. It's a jovial experience!

Very good place to visit. You have got many penguins to see. No extra charge for the centre. With the charge of zoo only you get to see this

Best place for family and kids. The penguins are very enthusiastic and energetic as well as very friendly. Since we went on public holiday there were many people and so got very less time to stay there. But overall very nice.
Highly recommend to visit on week days for more time to spend with penguins.

The penguins are well kept in a clean and highly maintained environment. They are a must watch for every mumbaikar and all Indians. They seem very happy and cheerful

It was the best part of the Zoo, very cold to visit in the hot weather. Only thing is the trip is short if crowded as the security person will try to hurry you up to leave fast. Additionally they have a nice Food court inside the premises which is again with the AC. Only cold places in the zoo.

Very beautiful place for kids ❤. Well maintained. My kid enjoyed watching Tiger 🐯 and Birds. Must visit place with kids

It's an awesome experience to see penguin it's amazing experience to see them swim and making fun..

Awesome experience of seeing penguine for the first time

I went to this zoo just to see only penguins and loved it.Very cute creature being preserved nicely in the city.Good for kids also to bring and watch.

Visit there to watch pengwings, and it was totally worth it!!! They're so cute and energetic, i didn't know they swam so fast.
The technician there told us that the temperature inside is 60⁰F.

Being a part Envisage Institute of Fashion Design has been a good experience. This is one of the best institute in thane for those who are really seeking for knowledge in Fashion Design. Faculties are really best here with best knowledge.

The entire Zoo has been renovated and is an absolute delight to visit for kids and adults equally. Schools and colleges must make a trip to the Zoo and Botanical Garden and experience the fantastic exhibits.

I recently visited this place. It's located inside Veer Jijabai Bhosale udyan and zoo. Nice place to take your kids.

A must visit if you want to see the Penguins, because no one will go the the poles to see one, so great opportunity and a cheap ticket do visit

Nice maintained, good see foreign animal penguin to see in Mumbai, children are very happy to see.

It's a better place to get free from daily rush. It gave me good mind refreshness.... I really love that place. Some work is in progress so after 1 month there will be all type of facilities. 👍👍👍
