- Steph HBristol, United Kingdom4 contributionsBest zoo experienceBest Zoosafari I’ve ever visited, would highly recommend! Safari was great. Saw lots of animals and able to get reasonable close with many of them! My toddler loved it! Zoo area is great too, get a tram ride around to the animals and a train through the monkeys! It was so fun for all ages!Visited May 2024Travelled with familyWritten 20 May 2024
- Stoil NeshevSofia, Bulgaria100 contributionsNice place to see In this regionNice place to visit with kids. It is a very good idea for the animals to walk around in relative freedom and to be seen in their habitat. In addition to the reconciliation between the animals, in the cent n ticket 34 euros for an adult and 26 euros for a child, you also have 3 more attractions included. The total entertainment lasts about 2.5 - 3 hours.Visited July 2024Travelled with familyWritten 13 July 2024
- grainneluis6 contributionsUp close with stunning animals!A fabulous place to visit especially with children. It is so interactive..we have never been so close to some of these amazing animals! As it was mid August it was super busy and hot but we still had a great day! We didn’t take advantage of the amusement park but it also looked great. Tickets expensive but well worth it .Visited August 2024Travelled with familyWritten 22 August 2024
- 3lena81London, United Kingdom89 contributionsBeautiful ZooSafari experience!!Amazing! We visited in 2022 and again this summer, and we noticed several improvements each time. Both the zoo safari and the theme park offered great experiences. All the animals look well cared-for and loved, with plenty of rangers on site ensuring their safety. The zebras and donkeys had a great time running around and entertaining the long queue of cars. It’s definitely worth spending the whole day there (worth the money indeed!). The line for the monkeys train might seem long, but it moves quickly (we waited for about 10 minutes even though there were lots of people ahead), and the short ride through the monkeys' habitat is quite entertaining. There are several picnic areas and bars where you can enjoy tasty panini, piadine, pasta (the orecchiette al pomodoro was delicious!), ice cream and more. Our kids were amazed by everything, and the water park was fun for the whole family. However, please be extra cautious at the water splash with the logs, as the log inside is quite slippery and there are no belts, you just have to hang on along the rails (so fun for adults and older kids though!). Children can only use it if they are over 100 cm tall or 4 years old, and I wouldn’t let them go alone anyway. It was a fantastic experience, and we will definitely return in a couple of years, as we didn’t have time to visit the aquarium!Visited August 2024Travelled with familyWritten 3 September 2024

Worst experience ever. Paid 78€ for 3 in a car (2 adults and a 4 year old) got stuck in traffic through the whole “safari” for 3 hours, with staff shouting at cars “avanti avanti” and horning whenever a car would stop for 30 secs to look at the animals we paid to see! Staff kicking animals with sticks when they came on the road. No grass, just dry soil, this is no safari, the animals have no space, no grass, there even is a polar bear in a tiny pool, a crocodile in a tiny circular pool. On the games part, you pay 10€ for 6 rides or 3€ each… the merry go-round lasted for 20seconds literally. If you accompany your child they will charge two rides. They caused a whole traffic jam to make you pay an extra 2,5€ for parking. Absolute con. Shame to the world and to animals. I regret so much taking part in it! DONT GO, save your money and do something nicer!!

Despite many negative reviews, on holiday towards Polignano a Mare, we decided to make a stop at the zoo...
Something wonderful...
Many people complain about the costs being too excessive, yes... it's not cheap (€32 for adults and €25 for children aged 4 and over), but I read outside the park that the zoo is neither affiliated nor subsidized by any external company, so somewhere they have to pay all the expenses...
I recommend the monkey train, it lasts a few minutes but is really very beautiful, be careful that the monkeys are mischievous, and even though the train was completely fenced in, someone thought to stand on the roof and pee...
Inside there are many places to stop and eat and lots of rides for children...
Once the tour by car is finished, you park it outside (€3) and continue on foot...
Place kept in excellent condition

On Easter day, staying in the area, we decided to spend the whole day at the Fasano zoo safari. The visit is done in 2 installments with a single ticket of 32 euros adults 25 children: the first completely by car and given the public holiday it took us a pleasant hour and a half. In this regard, I recommend going to the bathroom first because there is no possibility of getting out of the car for any reason. Along the way you will find a myriad of animals from goats to lions, giraffes, elephants, tigers, leopards... the least dangerous ones approach the car to eat (bring a nice pack of carrots from home). The rangers are ready to intervene in case of emergency. Unlike many zoos I have visited, especially in the safari part, I saw the animals well cared for. After parking your car at a cost of 3 euros, you begin the pedestrian path. The ticket contains the various attractions to do and the employees of each attraction punch it. Quite disturbing monkey train, the reptile house, the monorail. The rides which cost 3 euros per ride are not included. In this part except the monkeys you have the sedation of being in a traditional zoo. At the end of the route there is a well-stocked shop for souvenirs. Dogs can enter (except in the reptile house) obviously kept on a leash. There are plenty of spaces to have a packed lunch. Overall, a lovely Easter spent at the zoodafari. Recommended for adults and children.

We booked a tour to this place while on a cruise. It’s not worth any little part of the money we have spent!
The drive through the safari area was so slow that all kids on the bus list interest and started playing with each other!
There’s nothing else to see than some animals laying around in the shadow under the trees.
The amusement park is rather antique and completely overpriced! Some lousy precooked panini sells for 5€. A soft drink for 3€.
I guess there are better locations to spend your time while in the area.

As always, ZooSafari never disappoints...apart from the entry price (89€ x 2 adults and 1 7 year old girl and the extra costs for the various attractions inside the park).
Compared to the last time we were there, the animals seem to be better off and have created new and better spaces for the animals as well as a nice large navigable lake. There are several rides suitable for all age groups. The staff could do better in terms of smiles and courtesy but I still think they were up to the task of the large amount of visitors who attended.

The animal drive-through was amazing. Take plenty of carrots and lettuce to feed them! Take smaller food like raisins and peanuts to feed the monkeys in the pedestrian zoo. The rides are paid individually and low scale compared to late theme parks but may be enjoyed by some.

It was nice to return to the Zoo Safari after so many years, even if not for the zoo itself but for the event that now accompanies us comicon fans every year, namely the Zoocomix. The event takes place in the month of March (we were there last year too) and I must say that participation increases year after year; the Fasanolandia area is filled with themed stands, the cost of the ticket is reduced if dressed in cosplay, meet and greets are organized with guests, star wars and/or wizarding world themed exhibitions (last year), lego exhibitions, etc. and themed shows while you enjoy the park (the areas with animals that can be visited on foot are included, except the reptile house, the monkey train and the lake of large mammals, €3 ticket separately) and the attractions ( 6 attractions of your choice are included in the ticket). A cosplay competition is also held on the Sunday of the event. The only flaw is the offer for lunch as the only space dedicated to refreshment is poorly stocked and the quality of the food leaves something to be desired, certainly to be improved regardless of the event itself.

We took our 3 year old daughter to the Fasano zoo and I must say she was fascinated by it.
You begin the journey by car, crossing an infinite number of animals that surround you and pass by, from deer, to lions, to zebras, to bison, to giraffes, etc. Each area is monitored by personnel who are ready to assist if necessary. intervene. Animals of every breed and gender.
Once the car is parked, the route continues on foot in the fish and reptile area, a large mammal lake, a ride in a single carriage on suspended tracks which allows you to see from above with a stop halfway to admire the polar bear, the hippopotamus and half the possibility of taking a boat at a cost of €1 each to go around the islet of the monkeys. Once you get back into the carriage you get off and you can take the train (totally closed by grilles) which takes you to the area reserved for the baboons, who jump on you waiting for food. Possibility to eat even if the food is very fast food and frozen. At specific times it is possible to see the fantasy show with Chihuahua dogs performing jumps and obstacles, a little entertainment from the staff and finally a presentation and show with the parrots.
Really nice. The cost is €32 per person.
The Fasanolandia part with the rides is closed during the week in October but I could see that the cost of the individual rides is €3 each each.
We should do the rides and zoo package.
ABSOLUTELY BRING THE CHILDREN and fun and enjoyable for adults too.

Bello ...ma..
The car route is very beautiful, and it is the most beautiful thing to do.
Nice other routes.
And then there's fasanolandia (amusement park)
Too expensive for a family. We were 4 (two adults) we spent 120 euros... at least to charge the second child a symbolic amount...!
Another sore button ....
You pay everything.... after such an outlay you would expect at least free parking.... and instead 3 euros ..
A boat ride 1 euro per person...
And at the end after seeing reptilarium (cute ) and the parrot show you stay around lunchtime in the large carnival climbing the hill.
The amusement park is a bit bare and not themed, we need at least greener.
For the above speech it would have been nice to give at least to those who paid for the zoo safari... some free rides... and instead no
3 euros per ride per person.
But you can get the 6 attractions ticket for 12 euros.
And to finish the show of the pinnipeds.... for a fee even that...( Not seen clearly)
Conclusions:
The park is worth a visit at least if you are in Puglia.
Very nice part in the car, nice other parts, not exciting Fasanolandia
You feel the need to renew some parts, should enhance fasanolandia perhaps with the addition of greenery, flowers etc.
Almost everything should be included in the initial ticket price.
Rating 4/5

Buonasera, i cani domestici possono entrare allo zoo di fasano? Intendo sia nel percorso in macchina che nel percorso pedonale. Se possono entrare.. in che stato devono essere in macchina e nell'area pedonale?
Written 1 August 2024
Se avessi ottenuto risposta dalla struttura di certo non domanderei qui, rischiando di interfacciarmi con persone come lei, sinceramente. Prima di tutto, gli animali nell'area pedonale non sono liberi, seconda cosa se una famiglia decide di portare con sé il proprio animale evidentemente è perché a casa da solo non può lasciarlo, e anziché abbandonarlo come fanno la maggior parte delle persone, preferisce portarlo con sé anche in vacanza, OVVIAMENTE accertandosi prima di tutto che il luogo accetti gli animali e con tutte le dovute precauzioni. Ultima cosa, menomale che lei non frequenta posti dove sono ammessi anche animali!
Detto ciò, essendo io una persona educata, la ringrazio ugualmente per la sua adorabile risposta.
