Small but enjoyable zoo — worth a visit
Small but enjoyable zoo — worth a visit Lagos Zoo is a relatively small zoo, but we really enjoyed our visit. It’s very people-orientated, with lots of opportunities to get surprisingly close to the animals. From what we saw, the animals all appeared content and well looked after. It’s not somewhere you’ll spend an entire day, but it’s well worth a wee visit to fill a couple of hours, especially if you’re looking for something a bit different to do while in Lagos. One thing to be aware of — there can be a lot of flies at times, particularly around some areas, so keep moving rather than standing around too long! There’s also a snack restaurant on site. It’s very basic, but does the job if you want something to eat while you're there. Overall, a pleasant and worthwhile couple of hours.

Great Zoo
Great little zoo plenty of animals to interact with in petting farm lots to see and many spots for sit down

Good short trip - more staff presence needed
This was good value for money and had a good range of animals who all looked healthy and well cared for. Lots of information about conversation and how they’re supporting this. Snack bar had a good range of food at decent prices. However, one thing which bothered me was that there seemed to be no staff ‘on the ground’ around the zoo to monitor guests. I had to speak to a guest and his children who were leaning over a fence and feeding animals crisps, and another who was throwing things at an animal to get its attention. Staff should be more present to prevent this and to protect the animals.

Something to do
A lot smaller than I thought it would be. Lots of beautiful birds, turtles, meerkats and tortoise. My grandson enjoy the hippos, crocodiles, snakes and penguins. Two hours took us round so it’s not a full day adventure. Entrance price fair as where cafe prices.

Absolutely Awful Zoo
This zoo is disgraceful. Apart from the fact that it’s expensive the animals appear to be very poorly looked after. Very little enrichment in most of the enclosures. All of the water was stagnant and green. The birds were completely cooped up with no ability to fly. The sheep were matted and over grown. One of the chimps had a very visible tic, very distressing. Most of the animals apart from the other primates looked bored and neglected. As a family we couldn’t wait to get out of the place. I don’t know how this place is open. Avoid.

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Lagos Zoo Admission Ticket: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lagos.
How much does Lagos Zoo Admission Ticket cost?
+
Prices start at $21 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lagos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Lagos Zoo Admission Ticket take?
+
Plan for about 24 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lagos is not rushed.
Is Lagos Zoo Admission Ticket worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 195 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Lagos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Lagos Zoo Admission Ticket?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Lagos Zoo Admission Ticket suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 24-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Lagos Zoo Admission Ticket?
+
Around 68 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lagos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lagos and add a light layer if any part of the 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Lagos Zoo Admission Ticket start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lagos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lagos?
+
On Outty we rank every Lagos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Kayak Tour: Magic of Ponta da Piedade, Lagos, From Lagos: Kayak Tour of Ponta da Piedade Caves by Boat, Boat trip to the grottos at Ponta da Piedade, Lagos. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lagos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lagos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
