What Our Guests Say

Ilona Tomsa
It was pretty nice—colorful—I liked that. I'd love to come back.
M. Burg
A beautiful, large light display right in the middle of the zoo. There were plenty of restrooms available, and they were free. We had to park a little farther away because all the parking spots were taken. We had paid the admission fee of 20.50 euros per person online for the evening.
Jac Bo
It's really lovely at Christmas. We'll definitely be back.
Silke K.
Our first trip to Weihnachten im Tierpark. We had bought our tickets online and arrived on Saturday, November 18, during the 6:00–6:30 p.m. time slot. The entrance was empty, and we got in quickly. The parking lot (€5 parking fee) was very busy, but there were still spots available. The tour is well-designed and varied. Along the way, you pass several stands selling mulled wine, almonds, and more. The value for money is decent. It takes about 2 hours to complete the tour. Our group, ranging in age from 25 to 85, had a great time and everyone really enjoyed it. Buying online tickets with a time slot for entry is a good idea, as it helps spread out the visitors throughout the park. The later you go, the less crowded it is, since many families with kids book the earlier time slots.
Simone Lau (Sim One)
Simply beautiful and contemplative.
Madeleine Kraschina
Indescribably beautiful
Mareike
I went there twice this year—that’s how much I enjoyed it. My favorite part was the “Wish Bridge”; with its fantastic soundtrack, I could have stayed there for hours, and then the “Dance of the Stars” that followed. These light and sound installations are more than welcome to be repeated exactly as they were next year :D.
Claudia Sohn
Not only was the atmosphere fantastic, but the weather also helped make it an unforgettable day. A festive pre-Christmas atmosphere with beautiful lights and a light snowfall...EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT
Gabriele Robbert
We visited Weihnachten im Tierpark on December 14, 2023, and really enjoyed the walk. It was a lovely pre-Christmas experience. The park’s design and beautiful lighting made the walk something truly special. We finished off with a glass of mulled wine, and we’d love to come back next year. It was wonderful!
Maria Adam
The last few times were truly unbelievably beautiful—they make your eyes sparkle and you feel as happy as a little kid 😃. This year (2023), unfortunately, it was a bit sparse compared to previous years. In 2022, there was a cloud forest with lights and a water light show—those were absolute highlights and super creative. I didn’t enjoy it as much this year, and it was really unbelievably overpriced.
