National Zoological Park

Visited the National Zoological Park and had a good experience. It’s a nice place for a walk and family time with lots of greenery. Not all animals were on display that day (not sure why), but we still enjoyed the visit. The playful monkeys and the birds were the highlight! 🐒🌿 Visited on Weekday Wait time Up to 10 min Reservation recommended Yes

The Zoological Park Delhi is well maintained and equipped with all the basic amenities. The managing authoririties have managed the policies well not to allow the food and plastic bottles which has helped a lot to maintain the natural habitat. A lot of species including the flora and fauna are well preserved and not caged is the best part what I felt while wandering inside the campus. Its a must visit specially if you have kids they would be loving it for sure. Prefer to visit on foot. Visited on Weekend Wait time 1 hr+ Reservation recommended Yes

A fantastic, expansive green oasis in the heart of Delhi, perfect for families, nature lovers, and anyone looking for a long, scenic walk. Located right next to Purana Qila, the park is massive—covering over 176 acres—so prepare to do a lot of walking What Works Well:Diverse Wildlife: The layout is well-planned with open-moat enclosures that feel much more natural than traditional cages. Highlights include the majestic Royal Bengal tigers, white tigers, Asiatic lions, elephants, rhinos, and a great collection of migratory birds around the central water bodies. Clean & Green Premises: The entire park is lush, shaded with large trees, and generally clean. It feels completely detached from Delhi’s chaotic traffic.Accessibility: For seniors, small children, or anyone unable to walk long distances, battery-operated golf carts (buggies) are available for a small fee. A Few Tips Before You Visit:Book Tickets Online: Entry tickets must be purchased in advance via the official portal, as physical ticket counters are often closed or heavily crowded. Food Restrictions: Outside food and large bags are strictly prohibited inside. Only water bottles are allowed. Footwear & Timing: Wear sturdy walking shoes and visit during the winter months or early mornings; summer afternoons can be exhausting. Note: The zoo is closed every Friday. Overall, a great budget-friendly weekend spot that offers solid educational and recreational value Visited on Weekday Wait time Up to 10 min Reservation recommended Yes Visit duration 2–3 hr

Ticket cost 80 rupees which is not fair, very less animals and inside the zoo everything which you will buy will cost double which felt like a scam/fraud, even 20 rupees water bottle costs 40 Trees and parks are well maintained, reptile house is mostly inaccessible. Medius size campus , parking fee for two wheeler 36 rupees. Suggestion : please eat well before going inside as food inside is expensive, don't take battery vehicles since campus is small enough for you to walk.

We had a wonderful experience at the National Zoological Park in Delhi. It is a fantastic place to take kids, with spacious enclosures, plenty of greenery, and a wide variety of animals to explore. The walking paths are well laid out, and the overall environment feels safe and family friendly. One important tip is to reach early in the morning. The zoo is quite large, and if you arrive late, you may feel rushed trying to see everything. Starting early gives you enough time to enjoy each enclosure comfortably and makes the visit much more relaxed and enjoyable. Overall, it is a great day out for families with children.

The Delhi Zoo (National Zoological Park) is a wonderful place to spend an entire day surrounded by nature and wildlife. The entry ticket is ₹80 per adult, which is quite reasonable considering the experience you get. The nearest metro station is Supreme Court, and from there, you can take an auto to the zoo – it should cost ₹60 for two people; don’t pay more than that. The zoo itself is beautifully maintained, with wide shaded pathways, lush greenery, and clean surroundings. The variety of animals is impressive – from lions, tigers, leopards, and elephants to colorful birds, reptiles, and deer. The enclosures are spacious and designed to keep the animals comfortable, while still allowing visitors to get a good view. It’s a great place for families, friends, and nature lovers. Children especially will enjoy seeing the animals up close, and it’s also quite educational. There are benches and rest spots throughout, so you can take your time exploring without rushing. The ambience is peaceful and refreshing, making it the perfect break from city life. Overall, Delhi Zoo is a must-visit if you want a budget-friendly, relaxing, and educational outing in Delhi. A day here is time well spent. Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No

Ticket : Adults - INR80 Kids (5-12 years): INR 40 below 5 years - free entry We went on a Monday so it wasn't too crowded but there still was enough crowd. We booked tickets online so entry was easy. They wont allow any food items, water bottle except baby food , the rest will be thrown off during checking. Its quite vast & there's a lot to walk so better to take the electric auto especially with kids or elderly. You get snacks, coffee, water, etc from the stalls inside the zoo & just outside they have an eatery. About the zoo : Okay I'd say. Didn't see Lion & some other animals as well. That was disappointing for the kids. Luckily got a glimpse of the Bengal tiger. The number of animals & birds are lesser compared to other zoos we have visited like Mysore & Trivandrum. But overall well kept & good for a mini outing.
