Zsl London Zoo, Huxley Lecture Theatre

Lovely place. We did the Capybara Encounter and it was amazing. The guide told us lots of interesting information and we got to pet the capybara! The rest of the zoo was great as well. We really enjoyed the penguins and the rain forest area. Very nice staff, who seem to really care about the animals.

Such an incredible zoo, we easily spent nearly all day here! It's spacious, modern, and has comfortable spaces to sit and enjoy some nature with shade. We loved seeing all the animals, many of which were very lively and easy to see. We especially loved seeing all the birds– they had such nice habitats and were exceedingly active, I think. Such a fun experience. I will say I found a lack of variety in the food offered, but that wasn't much of a bother.

For me, it was an amazing experience, especially getting to know interesting facts about the animals. London Zoo offers a wide variety of species, including big cats, penguins, reptiles, birds, and many rare animals that are not easy to see up close. Each area is well organized, informative, and designed to help visitors understand the animals’ natural behaviors and habitats. Interacting with the animals and watching them in such thoughtfully maintained enclosures was really cool and educational. What made the experience even better was the zoo staff. They were incredibly passionate, friendly, and knowledgeable, always willing to share insights, answer questions, and explain conservation efforts in a way that was easy to understand. This is just my personal point of view, but I truly enjoyed my visit to London Zoo. It was both fun and informative, and I would love to go back again if I had the chance.
