Over 700 species of wildlife survive and thrive at London Zoo, which has been one of the city's top attractions since 1847. At such a famous site, it can be hard to know when to start - here are some tips.
Visit the largest penguin pool in England, created with a South American ecosystem in mind. Spot the Rockhopper penguins, recognizable from their wacky hairstyles!
Creatures of the rainforest have to live in humid conditions, so London Zoo has built a special greenhouse for them. Hang out with the cute monkeys and sloths!
An extra part of Rainforest Life, this could be your one chance to see some nocturnal animals! Counted among the elusive beasties are armadillos and slow lorises.
Giant turtles are just some of the amazing reptiles and amphibians you can marvel at here.
If you aren't afraid of creepy crawlies, the daily meet-and-greet with these friendly, furry tarantulas will be up your street.
London Zoo has many temporary exhibitions and seasonal activities, so as well as the tips we've listed here, don't forget to check out the website to see what's on during your visit.
You'll be spending a lot of the day outside, so if it's sunny out - or even if the sun is just hiding behind a cloud - make sure you are adequately protected and drink lots of water.
If you prefer to have a quieter visit, try to go on a weekday afternoon - you'll have missed the morning rush and many would-be visitors will be at school or work.
Last but not least, the zoo is home to these animals! Although you may think they are used to visitors, don't shriek at them or do anything else that might annoy them - if you have kids, make sure they're on their best behavior.
Myself and my nephew (15) enjoyed going from Little Venice to Camden on the canal boat. We heard about some of the history of his stretch of canal and the famous residents whose houses and gardens were beside the canal. The weather was wet and grey but we were fine and dry inside the boat.
The boat arrived on time, we were greeted by very friendly staff. The boat was enclosed, which is good in the rain! Our guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. I had a great time, would definitely recommend it.
A very enjoyable trip. The guide, Nicki was extremely knowledgable and informative. For London I would describe this as a hidden gem. Would recommend, especially for more mature customers.
This was a really lovely experience. I took my teenage daughter who thoroughly enjoyed the experience too. We both wished it could be longer and vowed to do it again.
The ticket was not avaidable on tje 2nd day with the app, i was lucky that i printed it aswell otherwise i would not be able to use it any more.
