    What a great family day out. Our National Zoo has so much to offer....although it could offer so much more with a little TLC (and significant investment). The layout is great with an abundance of fauna on display. I was however really disappointed to see the state of some of the enclosures as well as a few key features around the zoo. A little more focus from our guys in charge and the National Zoo could be one of the best in the world. P.S. the zoo is HUGE! Hire a golf cart if you can. Comfortable walking/running attire is a must. Parking is a little inconvenient with no formal crossing for the lot across the road. This is not ideal especially for those with young kids. Overall a must do for both locals and tourists alike.

    The Pretoria Zoo is very well kept for its size. There is a great variety of animals, and ones you don't expect to see such as Komodo Dragons, and even a ragged tooth shark in the aquarium. The animals appear to be well looked after. This zoo will keep you busy the whole day. From a facilities perspective, the choices of food to eat was a bit lacking. Other than a nice place to visit.

    The Pretoria Zoo is incredibly diverse in its collection of animals; including a really cool aquarium, aviary and reptile park. The shelters and grounds are exceptionally well-kept. The prices to get in are somewhat pricey but the food for sale inside the zoo is cheap and easily available. It's a nice place to go if you'd like to go for a good walk-around, but there are golf carts and cable car rides available if you get tired. There's plenty of space to sit with family and have picnics and let children run around.

    Einige Gehege und Käfige sind in Sachen tiergerechter Haltung recht fragwürdig.
