Visiting London Zoo: What to See, Getting There, and Hours
London Zoo is split into themed zones, and it's worth planning a rough route when you arrive so you don't miss the ones you care about. Start at the Land of the Lions, a large exhibit built to feel like an Indian forest where Asiatic lions roam, then head to Tiger Territory, where Sumatran tigers are often seen climbing or swimming. Penguin Beach recreates a coastal habitat for Humboldt penguins and has an underwater window for watching them swim, while Gorilla Kingdom puts you close to western lowland gorillas in a planted, naturalistic setting. For smaller and nocturnal animals, Rainforest Life and Night Life are the places to go, and other favorites include the historic Reptile House, the aquarium, 'In with the Lemurs,' and 'Meet the Monkeys.' Daily animal talks, feeding sessions, and seasonal events round out the day.
The zoo sits on the northern edge of Regent's Park. The nearest Underground stations are Camden Town on the Northern Line, about a 15-minute walk, and Regent's Park on the Bakerloo Line a bit farther off, and bus routes 274 and 10 stop right by the entrance. In warmer months you can also arrive by boat along the canal from Little Venice. The zoo typically opens at 10:00, with closing between 16:00 and 18:00 depending on the season and last entry usually an hour before closing. There's no dress code, but you'll be walking and outdoors a lot, so wear comfortable shoes and dress in layers with waterproofs or sun protection to match the forecast.
