In the heart of Rome, בתוך the beautiful Villa Borghese park, the Bioparco di Roma is a perfect stop for families with children. Open year-round, it is one of the oldest zoos in Europe, now transformed into a modern biopark focused on animal welfare and species conservation.
A journey among animals from around the world
With more than 1,000 animals from around 200 species, the Bioparco takes both children and adults on a journey across different continents and ecosystems.
From tigers and elephants to giraffes and red pandas, as well as reptiles, primates and many other fascinating species, the variety is impressive. The habitats are designed to closely resemble natural environments, making the visit more engaging and respectful of the animals.
Educational experiences for the whole family
The Bioparco is not just a place to visit, but a learning experience designed with children in mind.
Throughout the day, families can join keeper talks, watch feeding sessions and take part in workshops and educational activities. These moments offer a valuable opportunity to learn more about animals, understand biodiversity and develop respect for nature.
Events and activities throughout the year
During the year, the Bioparco hosts themed events and special days, often focused on environmental awareness and the animal world.
These initiatives make every visit different and are a great reason to come back, discovering something new each time.
Facilities and visiting with children
The park is well organized for families, with:
large green areas perfect for a break
picnic areas
easy paths suitable for strollers
Its location inside Villa Borghese also makes it ideal to include in a wider day exploring Rome with children.
Visiting the Bioparco di Roma means enjoying a day that’s a little different from the usual: nature, animals and discovery come together in an experience that engages the whole family, right in the heart of one of Italy’s most beautiful cities.
