I visited this zoo last week and it feels like the biggest rip-off of all the zoos I have visited, and that includes multiple Sea Lifes... Only if you are a massive Elephant fan would this tiny park be worth 19 CHF (~19 USD). The 3.5 hectares are dominated by the Elephant facility and 3 restaurants (a fourth restaurant / event centre is currently being built). The zoo is home to a staggering number of 12 mammal species, 7 bird species, a few reptiles and several domestics. Fair enough, enclosures are mostly well-designed and spacious, but there are so many better options to spend a day. I have seen advertisements for this zoo throughout Switzerland and I am surprised they can afford that, as there is hardly anything for an average zoo visitor to travel more than 1 hour for...
I rather liked this place when I visited a few years ago - even if (or maybe because) it felt a lot like a toy zoo come to life! Yes, it is expensive - but isn’t that true if everything in Switzerland?
A toy zoo is actually a rather good description, I was thinking that this Kinderzoo was not designed for kids, but rather by kids, so I might steal your term I am painfully aware how expensive Switzerland is, but compared to the competition (for 9 CHF more you are in Zoo Zürich, for 2 CHF more in Walter-Zoo Gossau which keeps 3x the number of species), there is little to justify the entry price (though I know Elephants are expensive to keep). I find it surprising they manage to attract 360.000 annual visitors with being closed half the year. So obviously a lot of people disagree with me
