Bali Zoo is set among 22 acres of tropical gardens; the zoo offers a hands-on, up-close experience with the animals within shaded lush grounds. Its a great thing to do with kids for a day in Bali! There are walk-through aviaries; an open range for African lions and 350 exotic animals. Among the residents are Sumatran tiger, elephants, orangutans, binturong and bears.

The real emphasis at the zoo is on letting visitors get to know the animals up close. There are lots of opportunities for photos with the animals. You can enjoy the petting zoo, feeding the animals and  seeing bird shows. On the grounds are two delicious restaurants each with stunning views of the animals and plenty of kid friendly food!

When you travel with kids you want to create amazing memories and the zoo has made this possible with a number of package deals and special experiences where visitors can really spend one-on-one time with the creatures. 

One of the highlights of the zoo is the Treewalk, an activity for the whole family. Ropes, wooden bridges, swings and spider nets take visitors above the tree tops through a 15 stage challenging circuit. With 130 staff members looking after the animals and maintaining the grounds the zoo is clean and the animals are well cared for.
