Pafos Zoo Reviews 

I came away in tears today from seeing the birds in small cages, there was far to many lions in such an unkept enclosure they looked thin. I heard a cub crying and saw a lion had obviously given birth to what I would say was a day old the mother was ignoring the cry’s and the cub was left crawling around the dirt in 30degree heat. I tried to find a zookeeper to tell them the mother seem to be ignoring the cub they were not interested and said oh she had 2. I spoke to the lady at the entrance and told her how her she said she would radio through weather she did I don’t know as the coach was ready to leave. I have come away disgusted in how these animals have no grass I didn’t see water in some of the cages i just wished I hadn’t gone I thought it was a rescue place but clearly not. This zoo should concentrate on small animals and build a big aviary for the many birds they have snd let safari parks take the big animals,

Amazing!!

Second time visiting, great zoo, great staff and I even fed shoba the amazing elephant!! Well worth the money! (€18.50 entry fee and €50 to feed shoba) beautiful birds and big cats, loads to do. Highlight of my holiday!

Absolutely heartbreaking to see these animals and birds being kept in these disgusting conditions, not even the basic necessity of water provided in the enclosures, just awful all round and I wish I had listened to my gut and avoided it, ruined my holiday! These animals and birds need saving and the place shut down, I just can't believe in this day and age they are allowed to continue operating and anyone who gives this place a good review is either totally unsympathetic to the care of animals and birds or is lying!

The most heartbreaking zoo I have ever been too. Anyone that says otherwise clearly does not like animals. They Can say that are doing conservation, but it is clearly not the case..I was on tears within five minutes. Needs to be shut down asap! Can't stop thinking about those poor animals

Awful to see the animals kept in these conditions, far too small, no enrichment and animals are very obviously depressed and mentally damaged, the elephant pacing, the lions kept in a dry tiny paddock with no water, the crocodiles well I don’t even think they were alive as old food on the slab? Pack animals houses seperately, birds unable to fly due to space, and the tigers are so skinny? Owner should Be very ashamed!

Left the zoo in tears
Whilst birds and animals look in very good physical health their living conditions were not fit for purpose on any level The elephant had no companion and was obviously very bored and they charge €50 for 5 people to go into her enclosure She did have some grass something that was glaringly absent elsewhere A raven that can live many years was solitary in it’s dire cage The reptiles well need I go on …. Why aren’t these places governed under strict rules Yes we’re privileged to visit but surely their health and mental well-being should be paramount after all we can leave whilst they are imprisoned

Most amazing zoo my partner and I have ever been too by far, all animals all are so cared for and loved by the staff you can tell they are not just at work it’s a passion for every single member there, lee was exceptional and a lovely man when taking us through the elephant experience, took many photos which we will treasure forever, Karen was an absolute star most amazing women we’ve ever met so down to earth and an absolute treat to be around, she made our lemur experience something to never forget, I will definitely be coming back here. Most amazing people and animals ever and the best birthday I’ve had so far. 100/10!!

What a great Zoo so clean and tidy with large enclosures for the animals.

We loved it there for our holiday and it was agreat day out for the family. We would recommend it for all families when in Cyprus in the summer.
