Jungle Park Zoo Entry Ticket

An entry ticket to Jungle Park, the zoo at Las Aguilas in Arona on the south of the island.

Overview

Jungle Park is a walk-through zoo in Arona, in the south of Tenerife, spread over 75,000 square metres of dense tropical planting. The park houses more than 400 animals across more than 100 species, from Humboldt penguins and flamingos to eagles, vultures, toucans and lemurs. Paths wind between enclosures at different elevations, and there is a free-flight aviary, a Great Orchid Garden and a lemur walk-through.

The ticket covers entry plus the park's three scheduled shows: birds of prey in free flight, exotic birds in free flight, and the sea lion show. Penguin feeding time is also included. Visitors arrive in their own time, enter through the main ticket desk and explore at their own pace, with last entry at 16:00.

It suits families with children particularly well, with reviewers praising the shows, the play area and the lemur walk-through. The terrain is hilly, so expect a fair amount of walking and some climbs on hot days. Hotel transport, food and drink are not included.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points will help you plan the day, drawn from the park's own information and from recent visitor reviews.

• Footwear and fitness. The park spreads over different elevations, so expect a lot of walking and some climbs.
• Shade and heat. Still, bring water, since drinks are not included with the ticket.
• Show times. Plan the day around the three included shows: birds of prey, exotic birds and sea lions. Penguin feeding time is also included.
• Lemur walk-through. Paths run between the lemurs within their natural habitat, and one reviewer singled this out as a highlight. The listing describes it as one of the park's distinctive features.
• Food and extras. Food stalls offer places to sit and rest, but food and drink are not included. Some visitors feel the on-site food, drinks and photo extras are pricey, so budget accordingly.
• Children. The shows and the BOB slide, a paid extra, keep them entertained.

Common issues. There is no hotel pickup or drop-off, so you need your own transport, and parking is paid on site. The terrain is hilly, and one reviewer felt wheelchair accessibility was not fully explained, with slopes too steep in places to reach everything. Some visitors find the on-site food, drinks and photo extras expensive. The BOB ride is a separate charge.
