Hannover Adventure Zoo

A trip around the world in a single day: Seven lovingly designed themed worlds featuring more than two thousand animals delight thousands of visitors every year.

How about a safari through the African Zambezi River landscape to spot lions, rhinos, giraffes, and zebras? Or an expedition to the far north of Canada’s Yukon Bay, where wolves, polar bears, and seals roam? Or perhaps to Kibongo—the world of the great apes? Just a few steps away lies India, where baby elephants play with their mothers in a fairytale jungle palace.

Highlights for young and old:

  • Memorable encounters with animals
  • Boat rides and sledding fun—all included in the admission price
  • Everyone loves shows and show food
  • Themed Dining Experiences
  • Shopping Around the World
  • Informative guided tours (near Oppries) 

Down Under and Meyers Hof

Down Under, kangaroos, wombats, and friends dance through the red sand, and at the Mullewapp petting zoo, goats, alpacas, and little sheep wait for their daily cuddles. And if you’re longing to return to Lower Saxony after so many adventures, Meyers Hof—with its koi, ponies, and goats—is just the place for you.

In the rural idyll of Meyers Hof, you'll find breeds of domestic animals that have become rare.

Zambezi – By Boat Through Africa

Experience Africa with all your senses: On an adventurous boat ride across the Zambezi, hippos, rhinos, flamingos, and pelicans seem close enough to touch. In the sprawling 49,000 m² adventure landscape, lions lurk alongside giraffes, ostriches, and antelopes roaming in spacious enclosures, while quick-witted meerkats keep watch over the scene.

A Magical Jungle Palace

An Indian fairy tale comes to life at the Jungle Palace. Here, the ruins of a palace rise high somewhere far away in India. Green, overgrown walls, aqueducts, and statues seem to have been left to decay for generations. Where once the courts of mighty maharajas held court, today elephant herds bathe with their young. Royal tigers reign alongside leopards and sacred hulman monkeys in their dreamlike realm.

The Wilderness Boasts – Yukon Bay

Canada – one of the great adventures! Deep forests, rocky canyons, the romance of gold mining, quaint little port towns, and wildlife right at your doorstep: that’s Yukon Bay! This unique landscape spans 22,000 square meters, featuring a river, a bay, and above all, a fascinating underwater world: Here, polar bears, seals, and penguins can be seen underwater! Worldwide, only a handful of zoos offer guests these insights…

A Variety of Dining Options

Whether it’s bison burgers at Yukon Market Hall, seasonal specialties like asparagus, matjes herring, or kale at Krog Meyer, crisp stir-fried vegetables at the Palast Bistro, or homemade ice cream at Iscafé Luigi Amarone—each themed area offers unique dishes in a unique setting.

The offer depends on the season.
