In terms of the variety of animals and the relative ease of accessing them this place gets 5 stars for sure. In terms of the size of the place - it's not big by any respect. I was able to blast through everything in about 2-3 hours and we didn't exactly zip through either. We took time to view, read and take photos as we went. The main issue is this place isn't cheap and it's pretty pricey for something that won't take up a lot of your day. But in the end I just saw it as contributing money to the zoo and hoping it helps keep the animals taken care of. If you look at it that way, relative to what the zoo offers, I think it was worth it for me.

With it being so small I thought the price tag at $30 euros per person was a little much. It only took us about two 1/2 hours to see the entire zoo and watch the bird show. The bird show was in Portuguese so we couldn't understand what birds were what, but nonetheless, the show was very nice and entertaining. They had a great primate exhibit and the animals seem to be a little closer than most zoos I have been to.

It is a nice space though a bit muddy after the rains. Benches and a garden. This would be a nice spot for a cigar if that's something that you do. From the top of the stairs, there is a decent view of the harbor and the Christo Rei if you can peek between the container cranes. [Review 19037 overall - 232 in Portugal - 6 of 2023.]

I have never done anything like this and see animals in this way. I loved it! There were white tigers loads of babies and you actually get to see okapi up close which I've never done. It was 19.50 each and the lift and dolphins feeding were free. I would recommend the dolphins I thought the show was fantastic all the usual stuff but truly beautiful!
