Everything is fine!!! It is very informative and beautiful! There are many animals and plenty of places for them! The bus guide explains in English. It takes at least 4 hours to get through all the villages and take pictures. And if you stop for a snack, then + 30 minutes.

A magnificent safari park! We were with the children, everyone liked it! A huge number of animals, divided into parts of the world, is very cool! Unfortunately, there was not much time, we visited only two zones, giraffes and hippos, flamingos and a bunch of other birds! We were in November, the sun was baking well, however, thanks to the steam fans installed there, it was quite comfortable.

An interesting idea of a "safari through the territory". Some animals sleep at lunch, for example, lemurs were seen only after 15.00. To get to the feeding of giraffes, you need to be in time for 13.00 or 15.00.
The hippopotamus is in the water almost all the time, but it is visible. We had lunch at a local cafe with air conditioning (and here it is as relevant as possible), 100 dirhams for two (about 2,700 rubles).

A great place for both family and couples to visit!
This is a whole zoo-reserve, with a huge territory, and aviaries the size of football fields, probably :) You can take a guided tour through the aviaries by minibus and jeep and encounter the animals literally nose to nose

A very large area, there is all the necessary transport and shelter from the heat. The animals are very beautiful and rare, of which I do not live in Russia. I advise you to visit and you will not regret it🙂👍

The best zoo. I highly recommend it to both children and adults. There are fans spraying water outside. They carry buses or shuttles between locations. However, the food is very expensive.

A large park with animals, African and Asian. I liked feeding giraffes and keeping parrots the most. It's a bit boring to ride on buses. The price tag for food is high, so it's better to take a snack with you, but you may be asked to open the bag, since you can't bring food, it's better to go earlier so that you can get through everything, we started at 9 a.m. and finished around 14.

I liked the safari park, I was tired of the road (it takes 1 hour by bus from the metro). A safari with a guide (in English) took place on special buses, in addition to 5 themed villages. I suddenly liked the contact area for children with parrots, who sat on my arm and sat there calmly

A unique place! A wonderful open-air zoo! Comfortable conditions, it is worth setting aside a whole day to visit it! Lions, tigers, rhinos, hippos, elephants, giraffes, kangaroos, monkeys and flamingos, as well as other fauna from around the globe!

Awesome zoo, everything is very cool, but since most open-air enclosures are better visited early in the morning. We were in May at about 11 a.m. and it was unrealistically hot, so we all ran through the holop.

This place is a must-visit in Dubai. We arrived on Tuesday afternoon - there weren't many people. The park itself is simply magnificent. It is very different from classic zoos for the better. Perfect cleanliness, well-groomed animals. There are minibuses for transportation. The most interesting exposition is the African Village. Lions and birds are super! There is also a mini safari for 45 minutes in a comfortable bus.

As in one of my previous reviews, I repeat and say that I do not like animals in cages. Therefore, when we were offered this zoo, they said that all the animals are not in cages, but move around large enclosures.
Like everything in Dubai, this zoo is considered the largest zoo in the world!
Let's go-visited-looked...
Conclusion:You wasted your money! The impression is the same as from the world's largest aquarium-a lot of pathos and conversations!
Minuses:
The zoo is divided into several zones, there is no plan as such in which sequence where to go (go). If our hotel guide hadn't painted the route, we would have been fooling around with the whole main crowd.
In the Explorer zone (which we started with), you move from aviary to aviary by mini bus. That is, during the day, the poor animals breathe the exhaust gas of the vehicle!
In all enclosures there are devices that are under electricity so that animals do not approach fences, gates, fences. That is, all animals received a charge in one way or another, since these things stand around the perimeter of all enclosures. It's a pleasure to look at these "free" animals.
All predators are very thin, either they are not fed during Ramadan, or they are on a diet, or they are just in great shape
The territory is very huge and to see the animals you need to walk a decent distance between the enclosures. For example, we walked from a gorilla to an elephant for 8 minutes. And so it is between all the enclosures
Huge areas in the zoo are occupied for cafes and snacks (how can it be without this)
There are 1-2 animals in each enclosure. And almost all of them are hiding in the shade. To see someone is good luck!
Result:we didn't even walk half of the zoo, it was boring, it was hard to walk such distances and look for animals in the shade, people who came there to eat were terribly shaken, although if you walk such distances, you can really get hungry.
In general, for now, the best park with animals remains for me-this is Taigan. There is no such variety of animals, cleanliness in the aviaries and the opportunity to feed everyone you like anywhere (where I have been).
Don't waste your time and money on this place!
The children will get tired, and the adults too!
I forgot about the plus:
This is a behemoth that can be seen very close (perhaps that's all)!

A super place!!! Everything is green, every detail is thought out for visitors. Convenient trains and eco-mobiles for traveling between villages. One minus is the food, there is no normal cafe to have a snack. There are overpriced fast foods everywhere.

It is better to take tickets in advance, on the official website of the safari park. Please note that the territory of the park is large, and it is divided into several separate parts: African village, Explorer village, Asian village.
Expect to spend at least the whole day watching the maximum, but not everything.
There is a separate entrance to the African village, where you can watch the animals walking from one enclosure to another. The same situation is in a separate area in the Asian village.
It is not so easy to get to the Explorer village, you will have to stand in a long queue for 30-40 minutes, at best, under the open sun. Since you can see the animals on the territory of the Explorer village only from the car, and only through the window, respectively. And this queue is just the same to get into the minibus))
Of course, you understand that safari through the windows of the minibus is a pure bummer - 100% and it does not meet expectations, sad…
Animals from the minibus are poorly visible, because of the heads of the neighbors sitting around, of course you have to turn your head and rise from your seat, respectively blocking the visibility of other people sitting ((Now imagine how uncomfortable it will be for children in such conditions. But still, it was difficult, but it was possible to see the animals represented there.
In fact, not everyone has the patience and strength to carefully walk around all three zones of the safari park.
There are cafes, catering outlets where you can take a break. There are also electric scooters available for rent.
Overall not bad, but tedious.

Great place! It is very beautiful, there is a lot of space where you can just take a walk. Interesting master classes, we got to the bird dances. An exciting sight. There are a lot of animals. My 12-year-old son and I liked it.

A huge territory, you can move around on electric locomotives, the territory is divided into Africa and Asia.To see the lions and crocodiles, they put us on a bus and we drove around the aviaries.Everyone was watching from the bus.I was impressed by the feeding of the giraffe (feeding is strictly on schedule, it is better to come in advance, take a queue).If you go, it's better for the whole day.There was also a free performance in Asia:pelicans, porcupines, etc.

A great place, lots of different animals and themed areas. You can definitely expect to go there for 4 hours, there is something to do. It's worth it. Steam trains are carried with air conditioners, fans with splashes of water in the park itself, the canvas is also stretched so that the shadow is at the paths along which you walk.

To anyone who wants to see a million animals for a little money, pass by! Admission is expensive and this price includes only a small part of the locations with animals. The main one is a safari by bus - only for some considerable money. But I liked it anyway, everything was done very beautifully and civilly, there is no feeling that the animals are locked in cages, rather, they live for their own pleasure, and you look at it through the windows. There are free shows, I especially liked feeding giraffes, where everyone can come up with food. There is also a children's farm, which the children, of course, are delighted with, since everyone can be touched and fed. I didn't have time to see all the animals during the day, as the zoo closes at 5 p.m., so I think there are enough animals. But when compared with many large zoos, there are very few animals. There are cafes and toilets in each location and a beautiful park in between. So if your goal is to have a good time without running around kilometers of cages, and do not mind the money, you are here, you and your children will like it)

The best zoo I've ever met! You can't go here with a group for 3-4 hours! It takes at least a day here! And then, don't look at everything! Everything is very thought out! It's comfortable to walk in the heat, be sure to go on safari inside! You won't regret it. Interesting for any age

In general, it is a very beautiful place for walking, there are a lot of animals, but there were not enough impressions. The kiosks have different prices, and they often differ from those originally called sellers. I'm not impoverished, it's just not very pleasant to pay +10 dirhams from time to time on top, it's not clear why.

It's a great place. An oasis in the desert where it is interesting, entertaining and beautiful, there is something to see for both adults and children, even the youngest. No need to go to Africa for 1 hour by taxi and you are in a fairy tale. But it takes a lot of time. It took us 5 hours to have 1 village and a petting zoo. The heat is well tolerated (everything is provided) I recommend it to everyone

I liked this zoo, everything is very thought out for a hot climate. The largest department is Africa - the most animals (elephants, lions, monkeys, giraffes ...). Safari department - by bus 30 min, also interesting - but a lot of all kinds of artiodactyls. Asia - few animals. There is a walking area, picnics. I liked the begimot the most.

A memorable place for a long time. If you want to look at the animals yourself, the locations are very clearly visible on the information stands. If you want, buy a ticket for a bus tour and you will be taken in a covered bus to all the aviaries, and they will also tell you about each type of animal presented. In the evening we reached the contact zoo, the happiness of three adults was unlimited when they fed the goats and stroked the cow.

The zoo is super, very big, it's not really possible to get around the whole thing. You need to take a safari by bus, gorgeous views, the bus passes through animals that walk freely very close. We really liked it.

Oasis in the desert - I recommend visiting the aviaries of monkeys and giraffes, an intimate show with hunting birds! Transport remoteness and ticket prices are easily compensated for by delays, but it's better to plan for the whole day.

A huge zoo with many interesting species of animals.
We were in extreme heat, the animals were hiding from the scorching sun in the shade and caves.
A fan with water next to the aviaries blew pleasantly

A good zoo in Dubai, I advise you to take a bus, it's much more convenient this way. And since the zoo is large, there are many varieties of animals, in principle, pleasant prices for Dubai.

It was February 18th. It's +30 outside in the sun. There are quite a lot of people in the park, but not crowds. The park is interesting. Big enough. How many zones: Asia, Africa, separate birds. We spent 3 hours in it, but we were not in all parts. It's just that the kids are tired.
The impressions are positive.

I really liked the park, but it's not very convenient to drag around in the heat. For 90 dirhams, you can buy a ticket for the Ministry of Transport with a ticket that travels throughout the territory. The park hosts shows in English for children with the participation of animals. The territory is divided into 4 zones, well-groomed, but very hot. There are also safari tickets when the bus stops at the territory of the animal. In the poultry house, birds move freely around the territory on the ground, which is a delight for both children and adults. There are vending machines where you can buy water for 2 dirh.

A gorgeous place! We do not recommend taking it from a tour operator! It is much better and cheaper to go by yourself! There are many different animals. Some locations can be bypassed on foot, and in some you will have to stand in line to travel by transport. A train runs between the locations.

A great modern zoo! Paths with spraying cool drops of water, large territories of animals, an interesting safari and much more!
Be sure to visit the Grand Aviary in African Village - an unforgettable dive)
In Kid's Farm in Aviary, parrots can be fed with seeds, they sit on their hands - great photos come out.
And it is advisable to take a ticket with the "Safari Journey (35 minutes’ guided bus tour)" - without this safari, the impression will not be so complete.

Tickets for 110 dirhams are not sold at the box office, only online, they were taken for 90 dirhams, most of the park was not visited. At the ticket office next to the safari, you can buy a pass for 50 dirhams, subject to availability.
A large, well-maintained and beautiful park, buses run from zone to zone, the most impressive feeding of a giraffe (10 dirhams carrot)

It is a little far from the city, but the visit is worth it!!! If you don't like to walk a lot, then take a ticket with transport. It is better to arrive early, because the park is open until 5 o'clock to get around all the locations!

I have a very pleasant impression of visiting the park, I really want to come back here again. They took walking tickets, although the ones on the buses are more expensive at the checkout. We got to the park by taxi-it's expensive 80 drx, back by bus to the metro and on it to the hotel.

Gorgeous place) the daughter is delighted. You can feed the giraffes), however, only on a certain schedule.
Necessarily safari by bus) the main thing is that a good guide would get caught.
I highly recommend it.
Tickets can be bought online, it will be much more economical than the sellers of excursions

The concept of a zoo is such that any animal in the world would like to be in such a non-will)))
And do not forget about the visitors, a wonderful air-conditioned train will take you to the desired meta in a pleasant coolness.
