Barcelona Zoo is ideal for family days out. Over 7,000 animals from all over the world call this place home, including everything from lions, kangaroos and elephants to meerkats and creepy crawlies. It makes for a wild day trip from Salou.

There's something for everyone at Barcelona Zoo. And once we arrive, you'll have a morning of exploration ahead of you. Toddlers can pet the goats and guinea pigs at the farm, while older children get stuck in with the interactive exhibits. Don't forget to check out the art gallery – all the pictures have been drawn by the resident gorillas.

Within the park, there are restaurants and picnic areas where you can stop for lunch. And, afterwards, you'll have some free time to explore the Ramblas or go for a stroll around the famous Port-Vell area of the city.

The zoo is the worst zoo I have ever visited empty enclosure after empty enclosure hardly a animal in sight WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY £116 down the drain

Our Tui rep on coach was amazingly knowledgeable about the experience day out. She was so friendly, honest, willing making sure no 1 get left out with questions and answers. She had makes the 💯% worth it. The Zoo was lovely definitely coming back again also massive credits to the coach driver... Good Driving

The lady Teresa was nice and informative. The bus was about 30mins late and when we booked it said our hotel estival Simlar but the pickup was actual further down at the suneo hotel which I believe was number 3. I had to get Gio the tui rep to find it all out for me and another customer. When we got to the zoo a lot of the enclosures were actually closed for renovation which I understand needs doing but a heads up would be nice as I wouldnt have wasted all that money to go

Loved the day, especially the zoo but felt we could hav done with another hour in Barcelona.

Loved the whole day but think you should get longer free time 3 hours for zoo is good but should be 3 hours free time

Nothing to complain about. I enjoyed everything about Salou and the great service supplied by TUI on the ground and in the air
