Reviews for Le Petit Zoo
Review highlights
Based on 232 reviewsLe Petit Zoo offers a charming and intimate experience, particularly appealing to families with young children. Visitors appreciate the cozy, natural setting and the opportunity to interact closely with a variety of small and exotic animals, such as capybaras and meerkats. The zoo is recognized as a pleasant, short-visit destination rather than a full-day attraction, with staff noted for their care and politeness. While the animal enclosures are considered somewhat small by some, the overall atmosphere remains inviting. However, feedback on the onsite restaurant is mixed, with several guests finding the food overpriced and less impressive compared to the quality of the zoo experience itself.
A small but charming zoo with a variety of animals in a cozy setting. Great for a short visit, especially with kids. Some enclosures feel a bit small, but overall, a nice experience! I love capybara! follow me @roxana.iamandi.
Loved every moment there . The animals Were looked after and happy . Staff was really polite and caring for them . Definitely a place to visit for families but I went with my friends and still enjoyed it
Cute and Simple Spot for a Quick Kid-Friendly Visit Le Petit Zoo is a small, low-key place that’s good for a short visit with kids. The zoo isn’t very big, but it has a cozy and natural vibe, with a few animals to see up close. It’s not a full-day destination, but it’s a decent stop if you’re already in the area or looking for something light and easy to do with young children. There’s also a café next to it which is convenient for grabbing drinks or snacks. Overall, it’s a chill little spot that kids might enjoy for a quick outing.
It was an enjoyable time spent there at the mini zoo with exotic animals. Got to feed and touch the capybara which was my main highlight! Also fed the meerkats for the very first time there!
This restaurant is in line with the surrounding tourist attractions. It is expensive, and the food tastes very ordinary except pizza. It either makes my tongue salty or has no coconut milk fragrance. In short, the restaurant is not recommended, but the mini zoo is very good. Although it is small, the service is very good, and it is very interesting to get close to small animals.
As the name suggests, this is a very small zoo with goats (baby goats are so cute), rabbits, rooster, turtles, Iguana as well as exotic animals like raccoons, meerkats, capybaras, patagonian maras. There is no entry fee but you can buy a basket of vegetables to feed the animals. There is also a restaurant and cafe. A good place to stop by in the Mae Rim area if your kids are animal fans. My kid loves it.
Little zoo in town. The animals are adorable and tame. I ordered matcha green tea but the taste was just so so. Cocoa is good. The stuffs here both in the coffee shop and outside are so friendly and want to help you with everything. Especially the woman in the little zoo is knowledgeable about the animals here. You can also feed the animals (need to pay for the worms)
