Nagasaki Bio Park

I am so happy we went to Nagasaki Bio Park while staying in Nagasaki for a few days. It’s clear the animals happiness and well-being is the main priority here. Animals are visibly relaxed, the enclosures are massive and spread out, and all of the fellow-humans were respectful of the animals space! I really like the fact that the park has signage EVERYWHERE explaining what to do/not do and what route to take around the park. I highly recommend visiting if you’re in/around the area!

If you are in the area with small kids, do not miss this zoo! You will be VERY close to most of the animals, unlike any other zoo. It is hands down the best zoo we have ever been to. Come when it opens in the morning, the zoo is small, but you will be busy with feeding and petting the animals until it closes. Also book the PAW petting zoo. Staff is awesome and landscape is very relaxing. Our highlight in Kyushu!

Very cool park! Up and down hills so make sure you wear comfortable shoes! Drink and food prices are a little pricey and spider monkey exhibit was closed . Recommend you not take away your food and drink wrappers away from the vendors spots as no garbage cans along the paths. Many of the animal enclosures you can interact in person with the animals.

This zoo is a must visit, one of the best zoos I’ve ever been to, great environment, wheelchair friendly all around, healthy animals, and most importantly you can see the animal up close and you are even allowed to touch some of you wish. Also, they have bats living in an open space you can see it within your arm distance.

Btw, it’s about 2k walk, quite easy to walk around, could spend a couple of hrs easily.

Must visit.!

will recommend this Bio Park to families with kids and etc as this is not an ordinary Zoo. You can buy three tickets either the zoo only , or Paw only or both which is for adults is 2300 yen per person. Total I paid is 9200yen for four people which is around 92 SGD. It is reasonable as you paid to see other creatures in the paw room like cats , guinea pig , snakes , owls and etc. There so many things to see while you can feed the other animals for their food for 100 to 200 yen which is 1 to 2 SGD. If you are there check it out. If you want to try clamping there a clamping near by call Flat Clamping around 30 half an hour drive. You need to book in advance as it is new and limited rooms.

The animals here are wonderful. They have their own spaces to freely roam around in, and near some animal places there are feeds that you can pay a small amount for (around 200 yen) that you can interact with the animals. The staff are friendly and wonderful. The park is a bit far from town, but if you have a car be sure to visit this lovely zoo. The guided paths in the park is very lovely to walk around and take in the scenic views of the animals.

This was fun! You can feed almost all the animals, including meerkats, monkeys and capybaras.
The capybaras have their own onsen and heater too!
There was apparently bird flu? going on so we couldnt feed the parrots + flamingoes tho
All the food has types too! 100 yen for ones in capsules and 200 yen for plants- but there's different types to those as well (you get live bugs for the meerkats!)

You will be able to experience feeding to a lot of animals.

A highly unique zoo where you can feed and touch the majority of the animals. The animals most receptive to interactions are capybaras, squirrel monkeys, and kangaroos. Indeed, the capybaras are the Biopark's mascot, but the squirrel monkeys are the real star of this zoo: highly energetic, adorable, and eager to be fed.

Bring lots of ¥100 coins. You will need them to buy food for the animals from the Gacha-Gacha machines around the park.

Normal tickets are ¥1700 per adult. You can pay extra to visit an extra section with cats and dogs, but I would not recommend it, because those animals seem miserable from over-stimulation.

Great place! Little pricey at ¥2000 for the zoo and petting zoo- but OH SO WORTH IT. We can on a typhooning day and the animals were still out and we were able to see most animals. There's tons of fun ways to feed the animals- we spent around ¥1000 on food for animals from the Gatcha machines stationed around.

The squirrel monkeys were intense and pooped on us and stole things from our pockets- so be warned.

Overall we easily spent 5 hours there, but you could walk the park no problem in 2-3 hours. Not big, but plenty to see.

Delicious snacks, cook insect room, capybaras were adorable, and the petting zoo was clean and nice. Dogs, cats, rabbits, parrots, owls, Guinnea pigs, chinchilla, degu, mice, so nice!

Great for kids, plenty to see and do. Lots of chairs everything for the elderly, though not the friendliest terrain. There was at least one nursing room, and stroller parking was available where needed.

Great park.

Children were only ¥1100 I think.

I've been to many zoos. But this is not really a zoo! Is a giant park with animals from all over the world, mostly roaming freely! Amazing! Highly recommended.

Quite a few sites that can feed the animals up close. Great place for kids. (Generally requiring additional 100 yen / 300 yen per feed).

A huge zoo that you should visit
I had a great time with the animals there
Especially Capybara-San they're all kind and Kawaii and giant
Definitely visit second time if I have a chance.

A very fun and interactive park! Suitable for all ages. Don't miss the feeding times and the PAWs petting zoo.

I love this place. But come to here is very difficult! And spend long time.

This was the best zoo we’ve ever been to. No western zoo can hold a candle to Nagasaki Biopark. The PAW area was especially wonderful because many of the animals appeared to be rescued. We spent a lot of time with the capybara and I want to become one. Be sure to come every season for Guinea Pig Bridge so you can see it every time!

A lot lovely animals around. You can get touch with them. Recommend to go if you are around.

Must visit! Extraordinary interactions with animals like monkeys, Capybaras, Kangaroos. Or you can buy foods for ¥100~200 and feed most of animals there.

A touch and feed Zoo. Needs a Lot of coins. Probably not european Standard, but you never can come this Animals so near.

Much better than the usual zoo experience! In this park you are allowed to touch or feed most animals at your own risk, instead of most zoos where they are totally separate just for staring.
Basically the park puts trust in you to be careful around their animals and allows you to have a much more interesting experience. We loved it
