Kristiansand Zoo is more than a regular zoo: There's an amusement park and a water fun park, as well. Great care is taken to make sure that the animals have plenty of space, and that's good for the animals. Sometimes it´s not so good for the visitors, as the animals tend to find shelter away from sight of the visitors. My son found the tigers and the cheetahs to be the most exciting, but the rain forest is also always interesting. I would recommend spending two days here, if you have the time.
