The only good thing about this trip was for the whole of our holiday it was sunny. We pre-payed on the internet which cost around £40, we then had to pay parking £3, and pretty much had to guess where to go as the staff didnt point it out. The animals just looked ticked off, I did feel for them... more

After reading the mixed reviews I was a bit apprehensive about visiting Edinburgh Zoo last week but as I'd already ordered my tickets via Tesco Cubcard Deals (a bargain at £3.50 per ticket) felt we had to use them - and I'm very glad we did. I went with my parents (late 60s) and 2 sons (8&10) last week whilst... more

This review is typed by a 34 year old but words from a 5 year old. "I really liked the monkeys bottom, because I have never seen a monkeys bottom before and it was funny, I liked the monkeys playing, I loved the Zebras because they are my favourite, there were loads of animals and we stayed there lots and... more

Not for people who dislike walking up hill but the animals were lovely, we had a lovely day and saw some great animals,lions,koalas,eagles,monkeys and a new baby hippo, Would reccomend this zoo to all ages and the kids were so tired they fell asleep on the train home. BLISS more

Cost £44 for 3 adults and one child, not cheap but spent a full day in the zoo, it is on a hill so may not suit families with young children in buggies, wheelchair uses etc although they do have a tour bus that goes around most areas. Some of the enclosures for the big cats looked a bit small,... more

July 09 - piad £3.50 for car aprking which is scandalous considering the fortune it costs to get in. Watch out for the staff coming at you as soon as you are in the queue looking for you to pay an extra £6.00 approx to help fund chimps. For 2 adults and 2 children we were charged £42.00 although standard... more

The zoo is way overpriced and not signposted, so impossible to find. The toilet and baby changing facilities are terrible. The cages are tiny and the animals look fed up. I would not recommend. more

I have visited Edinburgh Zoo twice this year, once with my older daughter and her two children (8 and 4) - for this visit I purchased a family ticket online (Whit week in May, 2009) and later with my younger daughter and her two children (5 and 2) for this visit I purchased one adult ticket, one concession ticket and... more
