Passeio diferentão de 2h para fazer com as crianças aqui em São Paulo. O local fica em uma casa no Morumbi, repleta de espécimes de animais mesclando vida com arte. Fiquei positivamente impressionada com o cuidado e carinho do staff para com os bichos. Vale cada centavo! Sem contar que, com o valor que eles cobram a entrada, revertem em projeto social para crianças com necessidades especiais. Maravilhoso.
It's a marvelous place to spend the day.
A good place for young kids and family in general.
There's tap water for free.
Also you'll find places to rest along the way, because it's a very big place.
Dinosaur park require another ticket to enter.
For me, I would skip. Nothing new that I haven't seen before. But kids will certainly love it.
It's a great place but I had to take off two stars for the giraffe lanchonete charging R$8 for a bottle of water 😭 How sad and how greedy. It should be illegal to sell water at such a high markup. Takes away from the experience. The tickets for the zoo are already expensive and the car park too. Oh dear.

Exposição muito bem montada, com excelente explicação sobre a vida dos insetos. A experiência é particularmente interessante para as crianças que podem ver uma corrida de baratas e tocar em alguns insetos. E o melhor: tanto o estacionamento (que fica no local da exposição) quanto a entrada para a exposição são gratuitos. É um excelente programa cultural.

Excelente experiência, super recomendo!

Parabéns ao Eduardo e seus colaboradores pelo belo trabalho e carinho com os animais!
Great place! It's well maintained and they're resting places everywhere.
The Zoo Sao Paulo was nice for a warm day's outing with the kids. They have a good variety of animals and some very spacious animal enclosures. The ticket price was reasonable and the online ticket purchase was easy. The parking was efficient as well despite a small wait to park. The lunch options were plentiful but the lines were a bit long.
Amazing place to go, it's free and very educational
It’s a really worth place to visit.
As of April, 2023, entrance fee is 8 BRL per adult, 4 BRL per kid.
It’s not so big land, they don’t have any kind of animals such as São Paulo zoo, but it’s not crowded, we can see rare birds, monkeys, snakes and others.
Less than 2 hours is enough to see all.
We enjoyed our holiday there.
Hands down the best zoo that I’ve been to in Brazil. They have lots of animals and is pretty easy to navigate. The ticket is a little pricey but definitely worth ever penny. Loved every second of my visit. Also, they have an ant colony there with a guide who tells you everything about how the ants live. I’ve been to MAAAAAANY zoos and this was by far one of the coolest things I’ve seen exhibited.

Uma imersão incrível para quem está com a mente aberta e disposto a conhecer os chamados animais não convencionais. Amar, cuidar e educar, para respeitar 🙏. Vale muito a pena

Projeto super legal e visita inesquecível
Nice park, exhibits, three section the bus tour, mammals and aviary/reptiles. The parking is not free, across the entrance. The 30 minuet bus tour tour was limited, supposed to get an additional 400 animals when it reopens in late March 2023. Lots of walking, bring water and snacks, most exhibits are outdoors. Start early otherwise you will not get to all the exhibits especially if you have young kids.
Nice zoo, there are a lot of different animals and many animals from brazil. The lion and tiger enclosures were not accessible when we visited. They have many birds ranging from exotic ducks to several types of aras. They also have a hippo, several types of crocodiles, snakes, foxes and wild dogs. There are a couple of enclosures currently empty.
Small but still interesting, don't reserve a lot of time for visitation, it's gonna take around 1h30min to visit the whole thing, if you really like bugs otherwise it won't take you an hour.
A beautiful zoo and beautiful park, full of trees and surrounded with a rainforest
A must place when visiting sao paulo.
Also very recommended with children🤙

Experiência incrível de contato com animais da fauna brasileira e exóticos. As crianças enlouqueceram! Imagino que seria ainda melhor se fosse no meio de semana com menos pessoas. O passeio durou meia hora a menos que o prometido. É importante entrar em contato antes para reservar.
Perfect place for rest ,and place for children

Great place to bring children or for photographic safari if you like to make photos from wildlife under more controlled circumstances. Highly recommended!

Great for kids, they get to touch some insects and see hundreds of more pinned in collections. It’s small but worth it if you have kids. Nice outdoor area for them to play. Arrived at 9:30h in a Saturday and we were the first ones there.
Great place for kids. There are lots of kinds of insects and what is really interesting is they have the cochroach race.
A small but well kept zoo, easily with the 8 entrance and an hour walk. The big cats were sad, but the birds and monkeys were better.
Nice zoo, great animals. Had the chance to see a few babies too! Too bad that a big part of the museum is under renovations and I couldn't see the museum and the small bird cages.

What a Amazing experience.
I am not familiar with insects ans then Bruno made it fascinating.
The visit was full of learnings and great discovering.
Bruno is passioned and interacts with his public.
I definitely recommand this visit.
Thanks a lot !!
Great place to spend couple of hours with kids. This is small Zoological garden, which keeps animals recovered from illegal trafficking. They have lions, crocodiles, pumas, jaguar, lots of beautiful birds and small monkeys. My kids (2 and 4 yrs old) loved it. There is also free parking and playground with shaded picnic area. If you in the are of Guarulhos I highly recommend as it's FREE.
Very good 👍 it's a good place to start your adventure in Guarulhos.
Very well taken care of zoo. Free to get in

Beautiful place, clean, organized and had monitors to help.
Great place to spend half a day.
It is true that it has been much better in the past, but it is still a great option for children to know animals and spend a day in the park. There are not many option of food there, only some simple restaurants I have nor yet tried.

For adults as well it is quite interesting. The park is really beautiful.

Wonderful zoo! We can see and know a lot of animals. We can identify that they respect Brazilian nature.
Beautiful natural space in the middle of all the pollution. I found the cages a bit too small for the animals, specially birds and monkeys. The only privileged ones were alligators and lions/cats which were put in bigger spaces. It’s worth visiting,though.

It was nice, most of the animals were out enjoying the beautiful day. It is quite a walk so if taking children be prepared to carry them if they aren't old enough to walk on their own. Many hills, stone walkways and loose gravel to push a stroller it's doable but not easy.

Overall very nice place but I found some of the places where they keep the animals too small
Free admissions Zoo, with a good variety of Birds and monkeys, there's even an alligator pond. Its great to walk around and enjoy nature.

Excelente passeio, principalmente para crianças. O local fica em um casarão no Morumbi e o contato com os animais é o ponto alto, onde em 2 grandes salas vc poderá interagir e observa-los bem de perto. O local nao possui estacionamento, minha recomendação é a de nao ir de carro, use algum aplicativo. O passeio dura cerca de 1 hora e o custo atual é de 120 reais por adulto.
Atenção: É necessário agendar sua visita com antecedência, pelo telefone 011 9 6586 5296.

Great place to chill and contact with nature
Not a lot to see but a valuable experience specially for children...
The park is currently undergoing renovation and only half of the park is available now, but it is still a great place to walk, jog or just take a walk with the family.
Amazing place to go with your family specially if you have kids, they will love it. The trails is quit long for small child's and they don't have accessibility, or if you go with a small kids you will have to carry them during some stages of the trail, but apart of it is an excellent place to visit.
I recommend to arrive after lunch in hot days, you will need around 3 hours to do the course. It has a restaurant and cafeteria to eat.

Good Museum of Biology in Vila Mariana area
Great Zoo! Very well cleaned and maintained. A lot of animals. Just felt sorry for some of the big cats, that seemed to have little space.
There's no parking, but neat the entrance there are some, a little expensive.

Very nice, mainly the insect running
A great zoo! It has a spacious area to walk through and many animals from Brazil, with a few from other countries. The monkeys are fun to watch. That said, few of the enclosures were empty...
A good selection of animals that the whole family will enjoy. Make sure to watch the monkeys for a while! Unfortunately there are a few empty enclosures these days..
Very good zoo to spend a free day at. Admission was free and it had quite a large selection of animals to see. Decent playground the food vendors were well priced. Thoroughly enjoyed myself and so did the kids.
Good place to in family, 2 to 4 hours is enough to see all the animals, if necessary there are spots of drinking water through the park and a pic-nic area, and a restaurant inside the park, but not so good, outside has another options even better and cheaper.
Well organized and clean. Very friendly staff.
This place is surprisingly well conserved. The zoo crew makes a really good job in keeping the place tidy (which is an exception for Brazilian public places). Very good for family trips and small children.
