Prague Zoo
The decisive factor is whether you need simple admission or added transport and audio-guide help: available choices range from entry tickets to skip-the-line, audio-guide, and private-transfer products. Prague Zoo has multiple entrances, and ticket-office closing times can differ, so an included transfer may matter more than the headline ticket type.

Planning your visit
Prague Zoo, also known as Prague Zoological Garden, Zoo Praha, or Zoologická zahrada hl. m. Prahy, sits in Prague’s Troja district beside Troja Chateau at U Trojského zámku 120/3. The collection includes Przewalski's horse, the Indonesian Jungle pavilion, Elephant Valley, Reserve Dja, and Giant Salamander House, so a full visit needs time for both lower and upper areas.
Prague Zoo opening hours start at 9 a.m. daily, with closing times changing by season from 4 p.m. in winter to 7 p.m. in summer; when the grounds close at 7 p.m., visitors may remain until 9 p.m. The Troja chairlift links the lower and upper sections, operates from spring through late autumn, and charges a separate fare, while animal feeding times and commented talks are scheduled at selected exhibits and may depend on the season or weather.
The simplest public-transport route is bus 112 from Nádraží Holešovice metro station to the zoo. A seasonal Vltava steamboat to Zoo service reaches a landing about 1.1 km from the main entrance, while the Prague Visitor Pass includes Prague Zoo and public transport. Prague Zoo parking is paid and unguarded, with parking areas near the northern, main, and southern entrances, so valuables should not be left in a vehicle.
A skip-the-line zoo ticket is useful for visitors prioritising admission convenience, while a zoo mobile audio guide suits independent visitors who want commentary without a host. An English-language guided tour Prague Zoo option is available for groups, and a family admission ticket is available for two adults with children aged 3 to 15; children under 3 enter free.
Before you buy
Concrete caveats: security, bags, cancellation, time slots.
- A skip-the-line label does not remove the need to present a valid ticket at the entrance turnstiles, so admission checks can still apply.
- A single-day ticket is valid for one entry only; leaving Prague Zoo makes the ticket invalid, so re-entry is not included.
- Ticket offices and entrance points can close before the zoo itself, creating a late-arrival or late-purchase risk even when the grounds remain open.
- Partner options that include a private transfer or audio guide cost more than basic admission because those services are bundled into the product; verify the final inclusions before paying.
- Limited availability is shown for the partner options, so the advertised choice may not remain bookable for your preferred visit time.
- Reduced admission requires proof of eligibility, such as valid identification for visitors aged 70 and over; without the required proof, the reduction may not be accepted.
Frequently asked questions
The things people ask most.
Can I enter Prague Zoo with a mobile ticket?
Yes. Prague Zoo’s official online ticket can be shown for direct entry at the turnstiles, avoiding a possible ticket-office queue. For partner bookings, follow the mobile-voucher instructions attached to your booking.
Can I cancel or get a refund for my Prague Zoo ticket?
Do not assume that cancellation or refunds are included. The available ticket titles do not state a universal cancellation policy, so check the specific booking conditions before payment.
Is it better to buy Prague Zoo tickets from the official site or a partner?
The official site is the clearest choice for visitors using free or reduced admission, because eligibility depends on age or valid identification. The official listing shown here is specifically for retirees aged 70+ and costs 1 CZK; partner options are more useful when you want an audio guide, transfer or skip-the-line service.
What bags can I bring to Prague Zoo, and is there storage?
Prague Zoo has short-term lockers at the main, northern, southern and Sklenářka entrances, including larger lockers for hand luggage. The lockers are not guarded, so keep valuables with you.
What happens if I arrive late for my Prague Zoo booking?
Do not assume late entry is guaranteed for a timed or transfer-based product. Follow the late-arrival terms on your voucher; an entry ticket without a stated time slot is generally less restrictive, but admission still depends on the venue’s opening and entrance rules.
Who can enter Prague Zoo free or at a reduced rate?
Children under 3 enter free, while reduced admission applies to categories such as children aged 3–15, students with valid proof, retirees and holders of ZTP or ZTP/P disability cards. Visitors using a reduction should bring the required age, student or disability identification; assistants of adult ZTP/P holders can enter free.
What is the main queue bottleneck at Prague Zoo?
The ticket office is the main avoidable bottleneck during busy periods: Prague Zoo states that online tickets can save time and let visitors go directly to the entrance turnstiles. A skip-the-line label does not guarantee that you can bypass ticket checks or any entrance controls, so keep the ticket ready.
