GO AROUND THE WORLD IN JUST ONE DAY
At Lisbon Zoo, we invite you to travel around the world without leaving Lisbon while contributing to a major global project of conservation of endangered species and their habitats.
Find the Sumatran Tigers in the dense vegetation of the Rainforest, observe lions, giraffes and elephants behaviour at the dry African Savannah and dazzle with the majestic flight of the colourful birds of South America.
Go sailing in the ocean to watch the dolphins. In the African route, meet the gorillas and chimpanzees. Watch the pelicans feeding between Africa and Asia. Hide in the forest to observe the okapis and explore Madagascar to find lemurs.
Back to Portugal, visit the Children's Farm and learn all about domestic animals. Be amazed by the view from the cable car and take a ride in the Zoo train.
All with the promise of an unforgettable day spent in the centre of Lisbon!
