I don’t visit often, but once a year, not much changes, but the main thing is the children are delighted

Enjoyed viewing cold climate animals in the winter snow. Some unusual animals such as the Taiga Antelope, polar wolf, and silver fox. Was mesmerized by the Amarillo and fruit bats in the exotic animal area.

Huge zoo! All animals can be seen. Went on Saturday, no too many people. For 1000 tenge you can feed a giraffe or an elephant! Great experience, definitely recommend!

I really liked the zoo. We visited with family, with children of different ages and everyone was delighted! For the youngest, there is an opportunity to ride through the most interesting places of the zoo on a children's steam train.
Aviaries with predators are well organized, where you can watch them and take pictures.
The variety of animals is amazing!
The children liked the aquarium the most, located in a stylized cave with stalactites, interesting lighting, calm music and beautiful aquariums.
You can spend the whole day in this zoo, there are many interesting things to see.

One of the best zoos I've ever seen. Green, large aviaries, you can feed the animals. There are many rare animals. The atmosphere is amazing, there is a lot of entertainment for children. A museum with an upside-down house, unusual and very interesting for everyone! Be sure to visit, I have been with the children several times and we are constantly discovering something new. An aviary with giraffes and a pond with pink flamingos will be remembered for a long time! The kangaroo was fed, very touching!

In the Almaty Zoo for the first time, we were with two children 2.5g and 10 years old — and everyone really liked it, including adults! Especially from feeding giraffes - a lot of amazing unforgettable emotions🥰🔥
In front of them, they immediately sold the twigs that they eat (for 1000 tenge) and the photographers here - everything is just organized!! With children, there are also places to relax, sit down to relax, and there is a place to have a snack - and very tasty - at the exit of the red cafe (red decoration) there is hot and all drinks, and very fast service 👍🏻
The only disadvantage for me was the queue to the toilet (there are few working booths) - apparently there was a peak of visitors on our day)))
At the entrance, it is better to prepare payment via caspi (so as not to stand in line))
In general, I liked almost everything and a huge number of different animals 👍🏻

A wonderful place in the city center for a family vacation. There are many snack points, ice cream, water, juices on the territory. There are reasonably clean toilets. Of course, there is something else to do for a more convenient arrangement of the zoo. Lots of different animals. Of course, there are those with whom it is still necessary to deal and allocate funds for the care and nutrition of animals

Attended by a large group of 11 people. Everyone liked it very much. The zoo is big and beautiful. There are a lot of animal species. I especially liked my favorites - giraffes and rhinoceroses, because they are not often found in zoos. If we compare, the Almaty Zoo is more interesting than the Novosibirsk One, but it is inferior to the Barcelona Zoo. I have not visited other large zoos.

A good zoo with interactive elements, the possibility of feeding some animals. In general, the layout is good (made back in Soviet times), it is very green, it is pleasant even just to take a walk. There are many different animals, including elephants, giraffes, bears and so on. Of the disadvantages, the territory is somewhat neglected in terms of well-groomed buildings, paths and other infrastructure elements. It clearly requires repair and updating.

First, about the advantages: the zoo is conveniently located, it is easy to reach; it contains some animals that are not in other zoos (giraffe, hippopotamus, rhinoceros).
Now about the cons: the territory is small (it used to be larger, part was given over to elite residential construction), animals are quite cramped, there are no fences and warning signs, local children are ready to climb right into the cages (parents are silent at the same time)... I visited the zoo 3 years ago. I hope that there have been changes for the better now.

The zoo has grown and become a more pleasant place to visit with children.
There are many improvements and changes in the whole area. The ticket price is quite affordable.
New expositions of animals, reptiles and much more. It became more interesting by 20%
Of the cons: intrusive sellers and photographers who scurry everywhere and offer unnecessary things and services

Great zoo! Hippos, Rhinoceroses, zebras, giraffes, bears of various colors, and many more! I recommend you to visit! Very reasonable entrance fee👍
Wishes about the monkey enclosures: these representatives of the animal world are the most interesting to observe, but the cells are barricaded with plants and a fine grid, it is not much to observe. Everything else is fine!

A wonderful zoo to visit with children. You can feed different animals. Bears, giraffes, elephants, hippos, various predators, flamingos and much more.
You can have a snack here. We spent more than half of the day, everyone was satisfied. The territory is quite large and well maintained.

I was with my family. It's beautiful, interesting, culturally, clean. There are a lot of animals, the park is big. Children are interested. Clear. I got into my childhood, but they improved a lot of things without spoiling them.... We have a great zoo. It is obligatory to visit!

You can have a great walk with the kids. And some animals can be fed. The space of each animal is large and, accordingly, the territory of the zoo is very large. You can have a great time with your family.

By the standards of Central Asia, a fairly good zoo. There are many southern animals that you will not see in zoos in Russia. For example, I saw elephants and giraffes for the first time in my life. The undoubted advantage is the ticket price - only 800 tenge (about 150 rubles) from an adult! Pennies. We were satisfied with the visit, the child liked it.

Great zoo! It has all the main animals (elephant, giraffe, hippo, rhinoceros..), conveniently equipped. The ticket price is generally a gift. Only 400 rubles were paid for 2 adults and 1 child.

A great, big zoo. There you can see animals, birds, fish, snakes and others from all over the planet. Children will like it, and adults too. Moreover, anyone can afford tickets. You can feed giraffes and elephants with your hands. My favorite zoo since childhood. I recommend you to visit!

The zoo is quite large, there are many animals, they are diverse and kept very well. For the first time I saw contact kangaroos that can be hand-fed and petted - this is an exclusive, since neither in Prague, nor in Moscow, nor in Budapest, nor in Tashkent kangaroos make contact with people

I really liked the Almaty Zoo, we fed the elephant for 1000 tenge...You can't feed other animals, but someone did feed them.Very beautiful fish, rhinoceroses are cool...but it was a pity for the brown bear who was sitting in a small cage, very untidy, when a large area with a swimming pool was reserved for the polar bear.Tickets are at an affordable price, admission is free for the disabled.

I've loved going to the zoo since I was a kid. At first, our parents took us there, then we took our children there. Yesterday's trip was already with an adult son. I like that the conditions for keeping animals are improving, everything is clean and beautiful, the aviaries are free. I will not argue with animal rights activists, but it is zoos that currently preserve populations of some endangered animals. Thus, there are more Amur tigers in zoos in the world than in the wild, and Przewalski's horse still exists only thanks to zoos. And yes, for the first time I saw a lot of ordinary seals walking freely around the territory

A beautifully and logically built system of paths and aviaries. I was pleased with the tigers, rhinoceroses, and lions, who have no fence, but an insurmountable moat dug. The toilet at the entrance is a little scary. No extraneous odors were noted. The animals are well groomed. You can feed a giraffe, elephant, kangaroo for a fee. The Amur tiger is the most interesting sight. He tries the water with his paw before entering. Exactly like a domestic cat. Fastidiously, fearfully, he lies down in the pool. He shakes himself off with splashes. And cheeky tigresses show off their charms in the sun. A comedy!

A small parking lot. There are many different animals: tigers, giraffes, rhinoceroses, elephants. There is a terrarium, an aquarium. There are activities for children in the form of a fountain, a steam train and a maze.

There are a lot of animals, you can see them all. The main thing is that you walk in the park at the zoo. Lots of greenery, trees. It is very beautiful and cozy.

After the restoration, the zoo became simply charming. All the animals are visible. The variety of animals is great. Separate terrarium, separate poultry house. It will be very interesting for the children. Some cells, after all, have remained without restoration so far.

One of the best zoos that I have visited, on a level with the Moscow one, you can separately select an aviary with a giraffe that you can feed your hands and next to it an aviary with rhinos. Everyone should take a look.

I liked the zoo very much. The animals are all well-groomed. Giraffe and elephant can be fed for money. Big and clean. But the toilet is dirty from the word at all, or they do not have time to wash it. There are a lot of visitors. There is no parking. The tickets are not expensive.

It can be seen that many animals have spacious enclosures, they look well-groomed. The white wolf has a huge territory, it seems to be good for him.
But it's painful to look at elephants - they left a small nook for such huge animals. Elephants are very bored, they walk back and forth, swinging their trunk, as if trying to distract themselves with something.

The impressions are difficult
I really liked the feeding of giraffes and elephants, in which you can take part
The animals presented are interesting
Incredible birds
But there is little room for birds, most of the animals are in barred cages
But here a personal attitude to the concept of zoos is more important, many people do not go to the circus, where animals participate in performances

The inside of the zoo is stinking clean no animals hungry walls stuck Wolf elephants Peacock fish all ran if we gave the crumbs of hungry bread, all the species became ugly once.we have not seen such animals in foreign zoos . "I don't know," he said. "I don't know," he said. The children are interested in getting to know each other. I noticed that people do not look at me, they are upset and hungry.

I visited twice this summer with my children. It is very interesting and just great that new animals have appeared in the Almaty Zoo (tapirs, hippos, for example). Maybe I missed something, but the last time I saw colobus primates in our zoo was 19 years ago, this year I was lucky enough to see these monkeys.

Since we go to the zoo every year with our grandchildren... this time the zoo amazed not only me with its changes...but also my granddaughter ..We couldn't even see everything in one go....new panoramic gazebos ..The observation decks are located in a new way...comfortable...beautifully...thanks ...You can describe everything for a long time ..but it is better to visit once and appreciate all the amenities for both visitors and animals, birds and fish....

The animals are well done and handsome. And here's the order... I didn't like the noisy and brightly smelling trade in the zoo, I didn't like that it motivates people to throw junk food to animals surreptitiously. And in the room with the monkeys, the visitors behaved terribly, endless tapping on the glass of the enclosure... I don't know if the administration can somehow influence other visitors. On the other hand, we can see a lot of efforts to ensure a decent existence for zookeepers, zoning, and navigation for people.

A good zoo, if there are children, is mandatory to visit. Lots of different animals, tickets at a good price.
Children need to be looked after so that they don't feed the animals what they can't.
The impression of the zoo was good, except for the disgusting feeling in my soul that the animals were in cages, in the heat, in captivity.

The zoo as a whole pleases with the variety of animal species.
But, there is a huge disadvantage that leaves an unpleasant aftertaste.
The animals do not have water resources in their enclosures. It is hot in summer, and the poor hippos are standing in the very heat without water. Is it really impossible to dig a hole and fill it with water so that the animals do not suffer so much? The crocodile has a small puddle in which it is difficult to turn around, let alone swim.
The director of the zoo has a reason to think about creating a favorable environment for the maintenance of his pets, because the zoo brings profit. And the animals deserve to have their lives brought closer to their natural environment.

We were at the zoo, I liked that everything was clean, there are gazebos and benches to rest, there are restrooms, free of charge, rooms for feeding and changing babies. The animals are quite fat, apparently they feed them well. It's just a pity that some animals have too small cages, after all, they are wild and they need a will. But overall the zoo is good

A great place to spend time with children, emotions, delight, etc.
But, the pavilion with exotic inhabitants is not equipped in the best way, there is very little space for crowds of people, you can't turn around with a stroller at all, you have to carry the baby in your arms.. It's the same in the fish pavilion.. but in general, the delight of children covers everything.
On weekends, it is better to take a taxi. Heavy congestion at the entrance to the Zoo from both the lower and upper parts of Esenberlin.
Despite the large flow of visitors, 4 ticket offices work surprisingly fast!
