Der Zoo Dortmund zählt zu den beliebtesten Ausflugzielen in Dortmund und der Region. Seit 1953 bietet er eine harmonische Präsenz von Tieren und Pflanzen in der schönen Anlage. Der Zoo Dortmund beschränkt sich dabei nicht darauf, Tiere zur Schau zu stellen, sondern liefert auch die nötige tierkundliche Information und leistet mit seiner Arbeit einen wichtigen Beitrag zum Artenschutz. Zurzeit leben etwa 1.500 Tiere in 220 Arten hier. Die Parklandschaft mit ihrem alten Baumbestand und die verschiedenen Tierhäuser machen den Zoobesuch bei jedem Wetter zu einem Erlebnis für die ganze Familie. Wir freuen uns auf Ihren Besuch!

Been many a times to Dortmund Zoo but this time was really good. Local children had gone back to school so the park was really peaceful. Adult ticket is only €8!! Which you can't complain. Not as many animals as previously but many enclosures are getting a revamp. Can't wait to see the updated park on our next visit.

We've been a couple times, once on a sunny day, and once on a rainy day. A main attraction is the dolphin show, which is both informative and entertaining, but there are other animals that make this a nice visit. Seeing the primate area (siamang, gibbons, gorillas, orangutans, and the sloths) was a highlight, as was the exhibit with the Tasmanian devils, prowling about and making their characteristic call. Large river otters, huge catfish, and an Amazon river dolphin are also favorites. Seeing the newer tiger area, well-designed both for the animals and the visitors, even though it was rainy was another favorite. Sure, the zoo is still going through some renovations, but overall a very nice place. It would be good if there were more food options, but bringing your own food is an option, if you think ahead. Easy access from the 901 tram.

Dive into an amazing underwater world at SEA LIFE Oberhausen. In the 148 m² large shallow water basin guests will discover the youngest breed of the blacktip reef sharks, catsharks, rays and other sea creatures. In the underwater dome they are swimming next to or above the visitors through the aquarium.

Great place for kids to learn about sea life. There is a bit of everything including small sharks, a big sea turtle, catfish, rays, and morays. At 13 we listened to a story about different animals ( in German only), and we could touch some animals for in a special pool.
