Grate place but it’s hard to be at the open air with kids when it’s 36-38’ . Even with all the cooling systems and air-conditioned surrounding transport, children still have a hard time staying there for more than 2-3 hours. It's a pity that the zoo closes at 18:00-18:30. It would be possible to arrive at 16:00, when the temperature drops, and stay in the park until 18:20. I don't know if this is possible. Logistically, from the point of view of the animals' biorhythms.

This wonderful place has caused a lot of positive emotions ! Be sure to visit with the kids! We bought a safari ticket.
The park is divided into several thematic zones. 1. They take you by bus. and then the walking tour begins, you will see: Lions, elephant, hippo, monkeys, gorilla, hyenas, flamingos, black swan, etc. Aviaries are more like a natural environment . The observation points are equipped with fans with water spray. There are also air-conditioned rooms for observation and relaxation. 2. Here is a bus tour of the habitats (be sure to buy the right tickets!) lions, tigers, rhinoceroses, giraffes, zebras, antelopes, monkeys, crocodiles, etc. Wow!!! Excursion to the eng. But everything is intuitively clear . The children are delighted. We also. do you remember the movie 'Jurassic Park', well, this trip reminded me about it, you are on the bus, the big door opens, the car pulls in, stops until the door closes and goes on, plus electric wires along the top)). Atmospheric !
Zone 3. Walking and partly on an open car among the habitats of herbivores. At 4 (it's like a petting zoo) and the performance, the children didn't have enough strength and we left.
Taxi from Marina Dubai at 100 dirhams one way . that's 2700 somewhere.
Tickets are out at 7500 or something. But, again, it's worth it!!! It is better to save money and not go to the Dubai Mall aquarium tunnel , but get here. The guide offered a much more expensive price! We refused! We bought the tickets ourselves , paid with a Kazakh visa card ( we took it from friends ) .
I read reviews that Moscow is not worse, but no, it does not compare in any way!

A huge beautiful territory, you can walk for a very long time. Geographically far away - either by taxi, which is expensive, or through an excursion.
We had very comfortable conditions for walking in winter, we were very tired in 5 hours.
Advantages: a very beautiful territory, a variety of animals, beautiful landscapes, a separate children's area (immediately at the entrance to the left), a steam train for transporting visitors, animal habitat conditions are as close as possible to natural ones.
Cons: the tour in English: fast and not everything is clear; of the food, as usual, only fast food - we escaped in the Indian village with pilaf (it was not spicy, it was suitable for a child); safari with wild animals was a little disappointing: you are traveling in a completely closed glass bus that moves along a certain route and you have to wait a long time for the iron gates to open and close, the children get bored, because there are a lot of such stops. But the safety is at a height.

The zoo is cool. A huge territory, all enclosures are clean and well maintained. The water of the hippopotamus is blue, not brown like in Moscow. I definitely advise you to take a full ticket for 75 dirhams (45 for children). It includes animal feeding and a safari tour (a 40-minute bus ride among animals, including tigers and lions). An ordinary adult costs 50 dirhams. The zoo is divided into 4 locations: Africa, Asia, safari tour + giraffes, a petting zoo. A free steam train runs between the zones. We were brought in at 12 and we left for closure. The zoo closes at 6, and the safari tour and animal feeding no longer work at 5. The food on site is expensive: pizza Margarita 50 dirhams, lemonade 30 dirhams, ice cream 35 dirhams. The toilets are very clean and tidy. There are theaters where performances with animals are held on time. There are pavilions with birds where parrots sit on people))

A cool place to visit with your family. Good infrastructure,shady canopies with fans and humidifiers everywhere 👌Before visiting, I advise you to go to the site, familiarize yourself with the map and locations, because it's hard to navigate on the spot and the signs are not very clear.
The territory is huge, stock up on time!
I advise you to additionally purchase a safari tour by bus (50aed), you will be taken directly to the animals and you will be able to see predators and other animals from a couple of meters away)

Great zoo! We took the penultimate ticket for the price) first we went to the children's area, there is a cool pavilion with birds. The parrots sat on their heads and were very sociable. The children are delighted! Then they did not immediately figure out that it was necessary to travel between the zones by tram, they went on foot and almost boiled! Then we went back to the start and figured it out. It's cool that you only need to walk inside the zones, and electric cars run between them. I liked the feeding of the giraffe, it is on time, food for a separate price. I liked the safari, but not everyone understood, the English language is very fast with the guide) but it's beautiful, and they guessed the meaning. There are many previously unknown animals. Cool areas with fans and steam. On the way back, we returned to the parrots - they were already well-fed and did not go to people. We took snacks, prices are like everywhere else, there are a lot of recreation areas. The zoo is closing for the summer, we were in April 24th. I recommend it!

A wonderful place to relax for the whole family! A large collection of animals and birds, very interesting shows (I especially liked the feeding of wild birds). An interesting safari experience in a comfortable minibus with air conditioning for 40 minutes and a 10-minute safari in an open trailer. Courteous staff, easy navigation and movement around the territory by bus. The safari park is located remotely, but it is definitely worth a visit!!!

I am very glad that the park staff are doing everything to make it easier for you to endure the heat during the tour)) near each aviary there are canopies on which fans with humidifiers are installed. Each location (village) can be reached by air-conditioned train. But the most amazing thing is the safari bus. Where you get on a bus and it goes into every aviary with animals, at which, it can also go by water where there are water locations. In general, it's great!

An incomparable safari park, so many locations, everything is very well maintained, beautiful, all animals and birds look well-groomed, well-fed and satisfied...and when you ride on an armored bus where predators are kept, it's indescribable.... I highly recommend visiting

A great place to relax with the whole family, don't be lazy, be sure to go! It does not compare with ordinary zoos. You need to set aside a whole day for a visit! You will see huge turtles, hippos, rhinoceroses, you can feed giraffes and take pictures with them, exotic birds are in the aviary, parrots will be at arm's length from you, and not behind bars somewhere there... Take a safari tour, it's about half an hour, but you'll have to stand in line at least. A guided bus will take you through the territories where lions, tigers, roe deer walk freely, monkeys jump. Of course, they are not all together, but divided into sections, but the impressions are still amazing, especially after half a day has passed through the park, and then you will also get a ride. There are some shows and you can see animal feedings, but we didn't have time for them. I would love to go back there even once.
The food on site is so-so, fast food, you can take a snack with you.

It is very pleasant to walk December -January. I think it's very hot in summer. It is convenient to get around the locations by bus. The animals are well-groomed and very funny. The park itself is also great, and if you think about how it could be done in the desert, it's generally amazing

We were pleased with the large territory and the variety of animals. I think it will be especially interesting to visit with children)
A set of vegetables for feeding a giraffe to them for one tooth, of course, but this point can be understood, because their stomachs are also not rubber, and every visitor wants to try to feed them :)

I really liked it! Everything is beautifully decorated, lots of greenery, shuttles run conveniently around the territory, we drove more because of the opportunity to feed the giraffe, a sweet sight and so pleasant!!!
We got there by metro, from the metro by bus, but the bus takes quite a long time to go around the route of residential areas, keep in mind.
I really liked the safari too!

A magical place! A must-visit! It is a very beautiful area, be ready to spend the whole day there. The staff is very friendly and helpful, everyone is trying to help. It was very pleasant to watch the performance with the birds, you can see how the employees love their work, how they take care of the animals. Everything was just fine!!!

It's a beautiful place.
A huge, green, modern park.
The territory is divided into villages (African animals, Asian, reptiles, birds, etc.). The full ticket includes traveling by closed tram between villages and cars inside large locations, attending shows and feeding some animals. It takes about 5-6 hours to get around the entire park. All animals are well-groomed and healthy. Feeding of giraffes takes place at a certain time.
I advise you to visit.

A super place. We spent the whole day with great pleasure. A large area for independent walks and two safaris, one small for everyone, just ride on an open car for 10-15 minutes, the second on a separate ticket, there they take a bus with an English-speaking employee through huge open enclosures with various wild animals for 30 minutes. I highly recommend going on this safari at the beginning of the day, because by the evening there are long queues and you will only have to stand for more than an hour.

We were with our family in mid-November 2024. For an adult, a ticket to the pedestrian park costs 50 AED without moving on an air-conditioned train, but at the same time we were given a free ride on an open electric car instead of a train. Why buy for 75 AED with a train is unclear. And plus 50 AED safari bus with glasses, show lions, tigers and buffaloes. We were there from 12 p.m. until closing time (6 p.m.). All the animals hid in the heat, half were only visible. There are not enough animals. Compared to the Moscow zoo, it is less saturated, but the animals are more at ease. It's a lot to walk, you have to lay the whole day. We got to a couple of free shows - (the schedule is posted there). They were both about birds, they flew on stage and flew away. In general, there is no wow effect from the zoo. The pedestrian zoo is comparable to the Moscow one, and the safari part on the closed bus did not meet expectations - half the time out of the 45 minutes of the tour the bus stands in the locks between the enclosures, and the animals pass quickly, you can not even take a photo. And if the animals are on the other side of the bus, then that's all, it's not fate. Just relax and sit with the air conditioner, maybe...
In the pedestrian part, there is also a mini safari on an open electric car for free at the very beginning, they carry 15 minutes without locks between all kinds of antelopes - and it seemed more interesting.
There is a nice pavilion with birds in the part of the African Village Zoo. You can walk among peacocks and parrots.
You can't feed the animals anywhere. Even in the children's zoo.
It's a long drive to the zoo from the city center.
In general, if you have a whole day of vacation that you don't have anything to spend, then you can go. If you are waiting for a wow safari, then alas, they will take you past the lion and tiger quickly and that's it.

The best zoo!! A huge territory, divided into zones (Africa, Asia, Arab and safari explorer zone) with a central park area. You can travel by mini trains, walking in the heat is not very comfortable, so it is better to take tickets with a pass. We took a safari for 90 dirhams.
Safari is the highlight of the zoo, minibuses traveled through the zones with different animals. The first time we saw rhinos and hippos))
Cool walking area with birds, walking among them))
For 5-10 dirhams you can feed giraffes and take pictures with them.
All animals are well-fed, as they live in a sanatorium)))
It will be interesting for both adults and children
We arrived at about 14 o'clock, the zoo is open until 17. We went around everything at a fast pace, we didn't have enough time. Therefore, close at least 3 hours.

It's just great! A huge territory, well-groomed and contented animals. The park is divided into several thematic areas: an African village, an Asian village, an Arab desert and a village of Explorers. There are various types of tickets, from just entrance tickets to Safari tickets on a special bus.
The largest and most interesting is the African Village. It is impossible to walk through the Arab desert on your own, tickets include a 10-minute safari through it.
A large poultry house. Birds walk freely on it next to you).
There are many places where you can have a snack and/or drink soft drinks.

A very nice place. The children were happy to visit such a lovely garden. Part of the park is traveled by bus, part is visited on foot, at the exit of the park you can eat ice cream 20-25 dirhams a piece. It's a pity that the elephants were a little far away. A bus runs through the park, moving visitors to various stations. These stations are stylized as a separate place in the world. Asia, Africa and others. We recommend you to visit.

An interesting place, I liked it on the whole, but there are also shortcomings. Before visiting, I recommend that you study the information on the official website.on the website and read reviews . Because navigation in the park, in my opinion, is stupid. We have visited the largest zoos in the world - everything is clear there, although there were larger parks. There is confusion with the name of the locations: there is a Village, there is a Station. How do you understand that to get to the Asian Village, you need to go to the Dragon station? Then the show: a great opportunity to watch a program with animals, and at the same time take a break. But the schedule of the show, and most importantly, the location of the locations seemed to be classified, They were found in one place only. There is no clear map either. If you didn't make it to the show, then the next one is only in a few hours - you couldn't wait any longer. But feeding giraffes is certainly very exciting, we recommend it. Again, it turns out that you need to take a queue in 10 minutes. Because then, on a first-come, first-served basis, you are allowed into the passage to the giraffes and you feed them with carrots bought there for 10 dirhams)

A great place to relax with children, for the whole day. It works only in the winter months. A large area divided into zones (villages). We rented a car with a driver right at the hotel for $250. The journey took an hour from the Emirate of Ras al Khaimah.
Tickets are inexpensive. But they only accept dirhams. Dollars can be exchanged in the cafeteria, but the exchange rate there is unprofitable.
We entered the territory. There are no signs. The staff does not speak Russian. Somehow we realized that in 40 minutes we would have to get on a tram that would take us to the animals, but for now we went to the farm next to the entrance. The children fed the parrots, bunnies, and goats.
We stood in line for 10 minutes, got on the tram (3-4 of them came at once).
We arrived in an African village. A huge number of different animals: gorillas, elephants, lions, tigers, antelopes, flamingos, a hippo surprised us (we imagined them as giants, but they were very small, they touched the hippo through the glass). There is also a fairly large terrarium.
Then we waited a little for the tram, which took us on safari. There they put us on buses and began to take us around the pens with various animals: crocodiles, lions, tigers, roe deer, antelopes, hornbills, flamingos, monkeys, leopards, etc. (There are about 20 zones in total).
A very informative place, even for adults. And we visited only half of the villages. I recommend

We 4 two adults and children (3-4 years old) liked the park, there are most of those animals that we wanted to look at, there was a separate attraction with a giraffe, where you can not only feed it but also pet it.There are also elephants, rhinoceroses, gorillas, wolves, and a children's farm where you can feed goats and sheep.
The bus ride to the park itself took an hour and a half (in general), taking into account the road from the hotel, the F10 bus itself starts from the terminal metro station (red line) -Centropoint, about 50 minutes to go. Safari Park is the final stop, where the stopping place is also the landing place for the return trip (please note that there is no possibility to replenish the transport card in safari-there are no terminals),

Probably this is the most interesting place in Dubai, although it is expensive for a zoo. There are not very many animals, but there are the most interesting ones. Everywhere there are approaches to animals under the roof and with humidifiers. That's why it's not so hard in the heat. I recommend taking a ticket with a safari, then you can take a bus through the territory where animals just live and see them in natural conditions. There is also feeding of giraffes (I definitely advise) and short free performances. You can move around the territory by buses (included in the price of a regular ticket), on foot and on various paid cars-trailers. There is a cafe, ice cream, but you should not count on a full lunch. You can also buy water. Located far away. It's better to take a taxi. There is a bus from the metro, but it takes 40 minutes to go.

A gorgeous huge zoo where all the animals are clean, well-groomed, well-fed. There is a possibility of a free transfer from location to location without trampling your feet to zero.
There is an opportunity to purchase a Safari tour and ride a minibus with a guide directly to the habitat of wild animals, i.e. in their natural environment through the glass of transport at arm's length, and not through a cage a hundred meters from a sleeping animal.

A very cool park. There are fans with irrigation everywhere, you can take a break from the heat. I don't remember if there were shops there, since we actively moved from one location to another for 4 hours and could have done more, but it was already closing) There is a cafe, you can have a snack and buy a lot of souvenirs. The most impressive thing is feeding different animals (there is a schedule). We got to giraffes-well, the buzz is fleeting though (I gave a couple of twigs and made room for another)

A great option for visiting with a child! Well-groomed animals, beautiful aviary. I was especially impressed by feeding the giraffe and taking a bus through an aviary with African animals - a cool option, in my opinion, very environmentally friendly: people on the bus, and animals move freely around their territory. The jaguars lying along the road, for example, are very cool. And teaches children the right understanding of man's place in nature.

Dubai is always beautiful, and warmth does not matter where you go! Safari Park is very interesting, but we did not go by bus to wild animals, we saw them through the glass, because during bus stops there is no certainty that a cheetah will approach you, etc. and you will see it up close.

The video shows that they are happy here. There are no cramped cells. You can visit the animal theater. There is a schedule at the entrance.
The park is divided into zones, between which trailers run. In each zone, you will be taken by a separate car to the places of residence of animals recreated in the desert.
Count on almost the whole day!

A healthy safari park. See the schedule of performances without them does not come in. Tickets can only be taken with buses. The territory is huge, you don't run between the performance zones. Navigation is very lame. It is very far to get by bus and more than 1.5 hours. Take a taxi from the terminal metro station somewhere 40 dirhams. Elephants are fire. Animals hide from the sun .

A cool safari park. It's better to come to the opening. You can spend the whole day if you are ready to hide from the heat. There is a risk of getting into school groups-then there will be long queues for trailers. You should definitely take a ticket with a safari bus. It's worth the money. The child of four cases was satisfied, the two-year-old went to bed and went to bed after an hour of stay.
