It's a truly unique place where you can come very close to the animals. Sometimes it feels like the animals have actually changed places with the visitors 😍 The birds and animals are curious and calm, and although there's more than enough space for them to fly/go away or hide, they come to meet you and some will even ask you to pet them. I was happy as a child when a cute zebra approached me and I managed to hand feed her and give her a massage 😅
The zoo also offers an opportunity to partake in feeding certain animals (check their schedule for that). Totally worth it!
The animals don't look stressed out. They are healthy, playful, curious, and fun to look at. Some big birds (I couldn't find the name and forgot to ask the zoo staff) were actually so chilled that they didn't move out of the way when some visitors wanted to pass. Eventually they had to cross the bridge. 😁
The personnel are friendly, helpful, caring, and they speak good English and German.
The Blåvand Zoo is definitely on our must-see places list.
