Zoo Santo Inácio

great zoo, very quiet and relaxing during weekdays. animals are very calm and relax near the windows. great experience. got to watch animals being fed. the 5pm closing time is inaccurate.

A very beautiful zoo, well kept. There was an amazing light display in the evening, we came back to it on the same ticket.

Very nice place for family day but....depends on the weather...if you're planning to visit on the very hot day don't expect much...all animals will be sleeping[hiding]. There's lots of space with open areas, so I recommend taking a hat. Plenty snacks houses...

Great zoo, with large spaces for the animals, they seem well treated.

Coffee shops are spread across the zoo, you’ll never be too far from one.

The giraffes are breathtaking, sat aceros their spot and enjoy watching them.

I was at the zoo on the weekend. There was almost no line to buy tickets. It's very nice to walk in the park. I was most impressed by the giraffes and penguins. The animals look well-treated, it is clear that they have enough space in the enclosures.

Very good range of animals especially tigers good snacks and refreshments clean and tidy

Attended the Wild Lights...what a beautiful and realistic presentation!

Has a lot of animals and was actually well managed. It was scanty but it was a rainy day and winter lol. The staff were friendly and helpful and helped us get a cab back to Porto. Loads of activities for kids too… I can imagine it’ll be packed in the summer

The zoo is amazing with lots of space for the animals and very well taken care.
It was a nice surprise in an unexpected location. The prairie dogs walk freely around the place and the kids just love follow them a peek into their wholes in the ground.
The tunnel that crosses the Lion's place is great idea and you get a chance to be face to face with or just underneath a lion.
A great place to go with kids.

Great place to spend a day with children. The entrance is a little expensive, mainly now that the eagles show is not occurring. Also, i think there is some need for more maps and suggested routes so a person can plan the day better and not to lose the scheduled activities. Other then that, all animals seem very well taken care, and the cages are spacious.

The show of lights is amazing. Very beautiful.

Nice zoo, not that big, but the animal areas are spacious. Bit weird that there is almost no public transport going to this zoo although probably not their fault. There's a nice panorama view over the city too when you walk all the way to the back of the zoo.

The kids loved this place. You can even see animals right next to you. They have safari, good cafes and restaurants, and play grounds. Lovely place to spend a day with the family.

Amazing place for children and grownups.

I'm very careful when visiting zoos. I avoid going anywhere where there is a big chance animals are not well taken care of and where they will definitely not have space to have a happy, safe life. Zoo Santo Inácio is one of the best places for endangered animals or rescues to live in. They have a great conservation program and the conditions are great. You can see that all animals are fed properly and are very healthy and happy and rested. It's a wonderful place to visit and see very rare animals like the white rhino, the Asian lion and Humbolt Penguins. There is a tunnel where you can go in and see the lions sleeping or walking over you. There are giraffes, gazelles, lamas, monkeys and even snow leopards. The entrance fee is around 16 euros for an adult ticket. Overall, it's a fascinating place and a perfect place to visit for half a day.

Lovely place to visit with the kids. I like to visit from opening time (10 am) on, specially during the summer, as you can end your visit close to lunch time and have your meal. You have various places to sit and also areas dedicated to meals.

Not too busy. Easy to walk around and enjoy the animals. My kids had fun throughout, especially the playground.

Great place to spend the day with or without kids. Various activities throughout the day, great presentations with different bird species, animal feeding, etc
Tigers and Lions are amazing and have great enclosures where you can get very, very close.
Prairie dogs are free across a part of the zoo!
Prices are ok, not great, but worth it for the full experience.

A very nice zoo in Gaia, not far from the city, but if you sre a tourist i recomend taking a cab, entrence is fair priced.anumals look clean, healthy and happy for being in captivity. Many toilets, totally ok daily food and kid friendly park. Totally recomend a visit here. Among the animals you will find cheeta, sibirian tiher, lion, giraffe, rhino, zebra, many lemurs and reptiles

Incredible zoo, very clean, you can see the animals up close. Well worth the trip, the tickets are reasonably priced too

A really lovely zoo, we spent 4.5hrs looking around. We read reviews about getting here but decided to get urber from our hotel which cost under 11 euros each way. Would highly recommend.
