Absolutely fantastic. Really fabulous zoo with an amazing range of animals in humane enclosures. The aquarium was out of this world. It takes several hours to visit all the exhibits in lovely landscaped settings.

The zoo was wonderful. It was really nice to see the animals. This is a really good trip for families, couples even friends. I'd definitely recommend it. Also it's only 15 mins by bus from Rotterdam Central, so it's really not far.

The tickets i bought here on Viator didnt work. I went with my girlfriend to the zoo on Valentines day. I showed my Viator "Fast" eletronic (pdf tickets) and when they scanned my tickets they showed up fake/not accepted. After talking with the staff at the entrance, showing the whole pdf, mailing the pdf to another member of staff, they finally got accepted. So if you want to hustle to get in the zoo, buy them at Vaitor! Blijdorp Rotterdam Zoo itself is a 5 star zoo. Its very big, you can walk there for a whole day. They have a small elephant and gorilla now, i think they are less then 1,5 years old.

I've been to many zoos and this one was one of the nicest I've been too. The oceanarium is unmatched and a must see. Wide array of animals and none of the animals appeared to be in distress and were very interactive with the zoo goers.
