About this experience
Explore ARTIS Amsterdam Zoo located 10 minutes from city centre, directly on one of the canals. Visit the newborn elephant calves playing outside, historic monuments, and beautiful flower gardens.
Visit ARTIS Zoo, one of the five oldest zoo's in the world. Something special happened this winter: two elephant calves were born. Take part in the Elephant Expedition, follow the foot trails, learn fascinating facts about elephants, and crack the elephant code. During the spring holiday, children can even craft their own elephant enclosure. Join an after-hour walk through the park and experience the remarkable calm that settles over the zoo while discovering which animals become active at night. Travel to Madagascar at the renewed Kerbertterras (formerly the lion’s enclosure) and admire how ring-tailed lemurs, red ruffed lemurs, and turtles live together here. Then continue to the new enclosure of the Asian small-clawed otters, located next to the red panda habitat. Visit the Planetarium for a journey through space (included with admission). Discover stars, planets, and marvel at our place in the universe. Stroll through the historic city park, admire the monumental buildings and explore the botanical garden, and take a relaxing break at one of the vegetarian restaurants. Check the daily schedule for zookeeper presentations, where you can learn more about jaguars, Asian elephants, and many other animals. Whether you want to discover, learn, or care for nature, you can do it all at ARTIS. With a combination ticket, you can also visit the other unique ARTIS locations: explore the world of microbes at ARTIS-Micropia and discover how all life is interconnected at ARTIS-Groote Museum.

Nice zoo, not enormous but not tiny either. I did expect a bit more with the price of the ticket, as I have paid less for far bigger zoos, but in all fairness they weren't in Amsterdam. Good day out overall.
