Good place to be visited with children, however one can notice its age at some places ... We went there at the opening time and we until abot 2 p.m. couldnt buy anything to drink or eat. Everything was closed and you can only count on the machines with drinks and snacks than. But you have to have coins.Toilets so so...Animals in good condition yet not free...

A lot of things to see with a children. Also a lot of playgrounds and atractions for kids. 2-4hrs depends what your kid want to see and try.

Fun time for the kids - there lots of of cobwebs and it looked like it was poorly maintained. We spent about two hours and got to see the entire spread - it was really HOT when we visited so we skipped any shows. Be sure to have the front gate call for a taxi if you dont have cell service - the area is very isolated and it would be a pain to try to grab a taxi on nearby streets

Like many places like this or cant decide if its a playground, funfair, zoo or educational centre. In the end the educational side is too weak to give much useful information about the faunia that your seeing. Throw into the mix the expensive junk food sold every 100 metres, the entry prices and the parking fee youre left thinking is its somewhere youd repeat.

I was expecting for big creature such as giraffe, elephant and lion.i suggest that they should fix the direction for going out or for Salida. Its quite confusing..and some shades for the other animalsby the way i Enjoyed the Zoo specially in the 🐧 area... also the ostrich is very friendly and Emu... thanks for taking good care for them! 🆒

With all honesty I would not recommend a visit. I have visited this twice once as part of work and the second time for a birthday celebration invitation. There is no interaction with animals infact one could raise concerns over their wellbeing. Yes you could spend the whole day there but after April you will burn as there is no thought given to create shade for the visitors. The entry tickets are overpriced, the parking you have to pay almost 6E for the visit. The restaurants are overpriced and bad quality and bad service. If you want true intention with animals for your kids then visit a granja escuela.

A different kind of zoo which offers more interaction with animals which is a very good concept. Its not very huge like Madrid Zoo but one can spend a whole day. I really liked their farm area, butterfly garden and cave area. Although its prohibited to touch animals at most of the places but there are some designated areas where you can touch and feed the friendly animals. When i visited, because of COVID situation they have closed main restaurants and some areas where there is possibility of gathering, they have not organized all the shows just there was one bird show. I would love to visit again once the normal situation will come.

I prefer the other zoo but this place has a lot of fun activities and interactive shows for kids. The exhibits are quite elaborate but I found it to be a bit claustrophobic since you’re being funneled into each exhibit which are mostly indoors. I still give it 5 stars because there’s plenty of parking, which was free at the time and it’s well located next to more open space parks great for picnics/outdoor parties. Great family weekend plan.

Really really nice to see so many different animals! You will be excited!You will see animals everywhere!

My 2 year old grandson and we loved it!

Very good but lacking in maintenance and cleaning.

I love this place if you come with children. It doesn’t feel like the traditional zoo, but more like a theme park. It’s full of exotic animals and shows over the day. It’s a great place to let children learn and love animals than normally the would never see.

Very nice place to know animals and walk. It’s a thematic park very safe. There is poor shadow areas and the canteen has few options of food and beverages.

Excellent place for families with children. A lot of activities and things to see. With discount for adults out tickets were cheaper than tickets for children, which doesnt have too much sense. Anyway, really nice place to spend quality time with your kids.

Very nice to spend a good time with the family. It is big enough to spend the all day in there. Restaurants are not so good so is the option to carry your own food. Parking 5.50 €

Good place to visit.Shame no directions from Metro to the park and its not worth the price that we paid.

Well its really hard for me to give 4 stars. First of all, I have seen the zoo in Australia as well as the aquarium in Sydney...!! Nevertheless in faunia you will find some fun by watching the 🐦 and the sea seal shows. Though I would recommend to make some changes in the entrance to the faunia by modifying the farm area which is not quite fun may be for the children too.

Loved it! The kids were really excited about it!

Great place, super fun. My only grudge is that its a bit like a maze in there! Not too easy to navigate if its your first time. But really enjoyable and I would definitely recommend it :)

Large diverse park and good for families and kids. Here in April so still pretty quiet. Well kitted out and decent value for money

Amazing Zoo we enjoyed it

My children love it

Fantastic, kids stayed for the whole day enjoying feeding animals

We went during reyes. Very quiet and pleasant

Una experiencia familiar única, no dejas de sorprenderte. A unique family experience, you never cease to be surprised.

Nice good place for kids

Fantastic place !

Great place to visit, lots of animals to see, nice day for family and children. Friends, there is a cafeteria, which sells, food and drinks. It is not that expensive which is great. You can take a picnic too if you like it is possible,there is also entertainment for the children.which is great. I recommend this place. I think the lives can be abit better for entry, as it is not that cheap. However, its a nice little place to visit.

This place is just Brilliant, animals look happy and most have good size pens. Kids love it and we love it. Best day out in Madrid with young kids

Awesome place, great for kids

Pretty expensive and small.

A fantastic place for kids and adults alike, the only problem is there is not enough staff around. I saw many people giving food to animals that shouldnt be fed (I even had to tell people to read the sign that said to not feed the animals!), if not for that it would be 5 stars! Great place!

Quite a cool zoo with various creatures: froom kangaroos to spiders. You can actually get very close to kangaroos if the door will be opened. Moreover, the room with lots of small monkeys is available to visit. But be careful there - after food time, monkeys can do some bad stuff. Dont stand underneath monkeys cause you will understand what monkey had eaten in the morning. Spiders, scorpions, and many more available to observe. Compared to Madrid zoo, which had big creatures from around the world like rhinos, oxes and elephants, this has much smaller creatures like spiders, butterflies and scorpions. After cisiting Madrid Zoo, Faunia will leave different impressions. Would suggest visiting both.Ps look online for discount codes to save some money ;)

Still keeps the magic but getting dated. Would require a renovation as most attractions didn’t change for the last decade. It’s however a great place for the little ones and brings me lots of good memories of my children childhood. The jungle (with its hourly rain) is is still the best spot in the park. Beware there are many free parking options right around the park.

Not particularly well signposted from the nearest Metro stop, obviously most people drive here.But its worth a visit if you like zoos/animals. Youll get closer to animals here than most other zoos. From Lemurs to Kangaroos you can get right up close and personal.Nicely laid out, with some indoor and underground sections to get you out of the sun. Its not a very big area but youll probably spend a good 2hrs or more here.Very quiet during August when we visited and unfortunately most of the restaurant areas were closed.

Lovely place with animals in freedom. With goods fountains to drink water

Nice little zoo. More interactive than Madrid Zoo. My kids (4 and 7) enjoyed the sea lions show, feeding the goats and the ducks. The penguin and tropical forest enclosure are very well designed. I still left feeling sad to see all does animals in small spaces or chained.

I liked very much the park.The queue in the restaurant is so big that you better bring your own food. Otherwise you will spend your time waiting in the queues instead of enjoying the park.The sea lions show is amazing. Just this show is woth the whole price of the ticket.

We like Faunia, especially when its quiet. Its really interesting and offers something for everyone. As with most zoos... some sad enclosures but mostly humane.

Great zoo and amusement park for 1/2 - 1 day of fun. It has nice pavilions and modern one. It is reachable by city transport and opened daily. I suggest to go there right from the morning to awoid crowds. Penguins and tropical pavilions are amazing same goes with open kangaroo exposition

This animal park does have many animals as the stars which probably in other zoos are overlooked.Overall the state of the park is in a good state.The price for an entrance is quite high, if possible check to buy the tickets from the web or find some discount codes.What i didnt like in many places there are tries to make money with pictures or experiences with animals or also doing shows with the animals. In my opinion that is something what should no more be done in does days.Some of the restaurants are not open all days, so depending on the day you might not have all the food options available

We visited on a Sunday in October. Two adults and a three year old child. English/ Italian. This park has the potential to be significantly better than it is. The main problem is the total lack of staff present around the park. Staff are to be found only conducting the shows (well put together and keepers clearly very respectful towards the animals in their care) and the occasional educational tour (only in Spanish, like everything here including the website, which is a pity given the amount of international tourism) and working in shops/restaurants/kiosks, cleaning staff, etc. So there is no-one keeping an eye on the animals and monitoring peoples behaviour. There are plenty of signs politely asking guests not to use flash, or in some areas not to take photos/use phones, there are quiet areas where guests are asked to be silent, there are signs about not feeding particular animals, or feeding particular food to particular animals. There is no-one about to enforce any of the above, and there was a shocking lack of common sense, respect and civility amongst the majority of the guests. Shouting, banging on the glass, running around, pushing, taking selfies, flash photography, breaking plants, climbing onto barriers and feeding the animals any random thing seems here to be the norm, and not just children - their parents were no better. The result was a significantly worse experience for all involved, the animals and the guests. The most extreme example of this was in the nocturnal area where the noise level amongst the public was such we couldnt hear each other speak and half the people there were on their phones, despite signs asking for silence and prohibiting use of screens. This situation needs to be addressed promptly.

This is an excellent, moderate sized zoo that focuses on getting you up close to the animals, so great for children and adults alike. Although it lacks the big names such as lions, elephants etc. it makes up for it with some superbly designed enclosures and facilties for the animals. Particular highlights are the penguins, sea lions and the jungla building, which features a walk through aquarium. All the animals appear well looked after and content.Plenty of parking. Plenty of places to eat and drink although most of the smaller kiosks are closed on Monday.

With nearly 30e for adults very pricey for a zoo but overall a really nice experience. There is a lot to see, several themed areas that of course have a certain age but still make a good impression. To make the most of the visit check beforehand for shows and animations. Some of those need prior reservation (see crocodile feeding, take picture with animals). Obviously most animals are still locked up in cages, with all ethical implications, but some of the more open areas seem relatively animal-friendly compared to other zoos.

We did the Manatee experience at Faunia and it was amazing; the staff were very friendly, helpful and answered all our questions, and the animals were incredible. The rest of the park is great, there are definitely better zoos out there, but Faunia has alot to offer. Highlights for me were definitely the nocturnal animals and the sea lion show. Worth a visit if youre in Madrid and have a day spare, but it is tricky to get to from the city centre, so research public transport and plan ahead.

Wow. Prepare for a proper adventure trek. We went in December so was pretty quiet and quite a few attractions were closed. Still took us hours and hours to explore.Please bear in mind that it seems like most of the food places are closed during offseason. And the quality wasn’t very good, so might be worth bringing your own supplies.

While there is lots to see, many animals are confined to enclosures that never see any sun - for example, monkeys and penguins in cages inside with no outdoor access . The nocturnal animals are kept in perpetual darkness for our entertainment, and you can see the stress of it on, for example, the ant eater, who just runs frantically along the glass. Some animals, you can actually touch because their cages are open but there are zero zookeepers to be seen anywhere, meaning that people freely feed the animals and even harm them, such as pull the tails of lemurs. Im not sure how this zoo meets European standards. (We visited twice - we wont return again).

The place is pretty cool and guaranties a full day of fun. They also offer some other activities that you have to book separately for a fee. Animals seem well cared and installations and clean and up to date. My real only complaint is with rude and impolite visitors smoking everywhere, eating where is not allowed, and feeding animals that are not supposed to be fed. Park staff could improve the supervision of these behaviors and make the stay even note pleasant for everyone. Also, its a bit pricey if you dont book a week or two in advance (~10€ off).

It’s a cute little place to see some animals. There are a ton of really interesting bird species and some animals that you get close with. Unfortunately barely any of the food stations are open so the ones that are open take forever. There is a lack of staff in some areas that I believe could use some people monitoring, but the animals are well taken care of. The parking is not free, which is a drag because it’s in the middle of nowhere and driving in is the best (possibly only) option. The parking lot is also a mess if you try and leave and didn’t realize you had to pay. There aren’t signs anywhere and it’s a long runway that you get stuck backing out of. Luckily there wasn’t a queue behind us or it would’ve been a nightmare. We probably won’t go back again.

Loved it will definitely visit again. Just the map is very confusing cant find yourself on it. If there was a pin to show where are you at the moment it would be great.

A decent zoo and a good place to take kids. It is set up somewhat like a theme park, and, regretfully, a such it is flooded by publicity for junk food and softdrinks.Its best space are large enclosures that allow the animals ample movement, allowing several associated species to coexist, and sometimes even allowing visitors to enter: the lemurs enclosure, for insurance. The farm is also great: kids can go in and can feed the animals.Other spaces and events are less forgiving towards the animals.

Its big enough to spend a day or at leas 4 hours. It needs maintemance and updating. Many areas are closed and they smell like the animals food. Its a good idea on summer to buy the night ticket with dinner.

Great place to see a bunch of different species. The concessions arent too pricey, so that was a good surprise. I recommend doing the polar experience.

Faunia is a very beautiful place. I like the concept and the little ones have a lot of fun there. only negative was some of the areas were supposed to be open and were closed. When enquiring with employees their response was if you see its closed it is is closed quite rude.

Fun for the family

My daughter loved every minute spent in the zoo and it is well maintained.

Great place if your kid is under 4. Older kids would enjoy more at the Zoo

Entrance to the zoo is not chip. I do not know if you can get better prices by internet. It is a nice place to enjoy with kids if there is good wheater.

Great place to learn more on wildlife. Also great place to meet dinos.👍

Great place for kids

I expected it would be bigger. People dont respect the signs. Some areas are a bit old already

My family and I had so much fun at this place. Highly recommend the animal shows.

It is a large zoo and we only made it through about half of the exhibits in our half day visit. Parking was easy, the exhibits were nice, and the price seemed reasonable.

Maybe the animals could be kept in even worse conditions, but that doesnt make this place right. Its a glorified pet store, no animal is kept in a space that accommodates to its needs. The crocodiles have killed one another on account of how tiny their space is, the armadillo runs around a space the size of a modest living room, and so does the aardvark or the ocelot. This place is profoundly wrong, anyone with a shred of respect (not even love) for animals should avoid giving these people any money.

Best place for kids and parents. Fun way to learn about animal kingdom in this park. Park is not that crowdy and does not host all animals like Madrid zoo. Love the way animals are kept free here instead of being locked as is seen in most of the zoos. Animals are active; though its bit pricey its worth a visit. Book in advance via internet you will get good discount.

I took my 2 children there with friends. We all had a great day. Plenty to see. Lovely walks.

Nice zoo, 3-4 hours to get round, jungla exhibit fantastic

Lots of animals and shows. Perfect for an outing with the family. Expensive to get in, so plan to spend many hours.

Instalaciones are good. No entertaining programs. It’s going around without guidance.not a joyful experience.Lots of animals. But no ringmaster!

Great for young kids. Good organization and great variety of animals

The animals are kept in incredible small places, neither in a remotely similar place to its natural habitat. If you love animals don’t come.

Good zoo with a very nice Venon section. But... when you have been to Antibes or Florida or San Diego, it’s very small and the prices are at the same level. There is not a single annual subscription... the only thing which seems to interest the owners of the Park... making money on kids. So if you go 4 times a year with a family of four, be prepared to spend 500€ ;-(

Animals deserve a better life than Faunia provides.

To weno

Its very nice place to encounter the animals at their habitats in a very close way. besides my son love the crocodiles.

The best place for families. Love it

Quiet expensive but a small and nice zoo. Loads of special and rare species in nice enclosures.

This park is not big. Not many animals. But we liked pavilion with pingüinos and crocodiles.

We expected more, the price is quiet high, the children farm has goats that big, that even adults are afraid to enter. The pinguin area is interesting, but it is built in a way that it is hard to see the animals.

A little shabby and sad. Visitors are often rude and disrespectful about animals, and theres no surveillance. Although it has rare animals, they seem abandoned.

Doesnt have the big animals of most zoos but better for it

Great place to visit. Kids friendly

Installation is great and clean. Our children spent fabulous day

The best zoological park in Madrid and probably the second best in Spain. Totally worth visiting

Many different exotic animals in their environment. Great for children.

We visited to see some lovely and exutic animals but we ended up seeing almost non because either the animals were sleeping in and hedden from human view or some where not even there.

Better than the Madrid Zoo. Dinosaur exhibit could use some serious maintenance.

I loved being so close to the animals, my kids were seriously excited. I didnt bring my pushchair (mistake! Bring your own) and was a little annoyed that the kiddie car thing we hired to push them along instead a) cost €15! b) All had badly maintained tiny trolley like wheels meaning they were super difficult to push along, and really noisy. For €15 Id like the smoothness of a Ferrari please.Also as the parking points for them were only at food courts and not around exhibits, we had to have one of us stay outside with it as they were normally two big for the exhibits and other kids kept trying to get in them and escape (sorry guys, not for €15....)While the parking is not too expensive, it really bothered me having to pay extra after shelling out nearly €100 on tickets. Plus you have to validate them at the ticket/photo booth, which is incredibly stupid, instead of having a machine to do it on the inside of the park - guys your park is in the middle of nowhere, Noone is coming here for free parking.Also, there are no signs or information anywhere even saying you have to validate the ticket, so many people went to the barrier, then had to reverse back, get out, and walk back to the entrance booth - they werent even asked for tickets as proof of having entered either so same price whether youre a customer or not I guess....I am a familia numerosa and the online website also gave me a million difficulties and I ended up having to buy the tickets without the discount I am entitled to, although at three euros I wont exactly lose any sleep over it.The app they tell you that you need to download for paperless tickets does NOT work, dont bother downloading it. You can just show the electronic copies you get in your email and zoom in on the barcode.Although I felt like the animals habitats were large and well-kept, I felt really bad for animals in areas where silence was requested. I really dont know what is wrong with people that they need to be shouting and banging on glass and letting their kids run around like absolute maniac berserkers while the animals look visibly distressed and there are signs everywhere asking for silence.The animals in the nocturnal section seemed to be the worst off, they were acting very agitated. Sadly, as people apparently cant be trusted, the park should really have someone in that section to shush loud idiots, as the animals and their welfare is their responsibility.The food is OK, but very unhealthy and expensive - bring your own snacks at least. There is a really nice picnic area with benches inside a large playground, but it was super crowded the day we went.

I do not like the ZOO, hence the rating. But worth a look at the sea bass show in the pool

Like a zoo but different. Worth going if you dont know what to do.

Love Faunia. Great for kids and for adults.

We go every weekend. Nice place for a weekend visit with the kids. Staff isnt the friendliest sometimes.

Loved it very helpful bilingual staff

You can found better place than this for the same price.

Very nice place especially for children

Chained birds on the ground!!! The space is too small for most of the animals. This is a fun place for innocent kids but a horror show for adults!

Only bad thing about this place is the number of cashiers in the food court (which is one!)Great place to hang with the kids, make sure to book in advance to get your discount tickets

Very nice! There are no big animals that usually at zoos have very little space. The animals at Faunia seemed to have enough space. It is also a different kind of zoo as there ar areas where you can walk among the animals, such as the monkeys (curious little things!). The zoo was also surprisingly large.Most of the restaurants were closed, though and we got lost because there werent enough maps around the zoo. Otherwise, a great place to visit. I liked it more than The Zoo.

Great fun for both kids and adults.

Nice place to spend the afternoon with the family
