What other travelers are saying about Tobu Zoo

Such a fun place for families, especially kids. Kids get to feed some of the animals. The rides were fun too! If it gets too cold outside, there are indoor arcade games too. The lights are night were really beautiful!

Nearby attractions to see

A peaceful lakeside scene with cherry blossom trees in full bloom, a small gazebo on a pier, and reflections in the calm water. People stroll by the trees, and a bird flies in the blue sky above.

Went early morning and had an absolutely wonderful time. Three hours just in the zoo. If you wanted to do rides you could easily spend a day here.

I think it's an especially fun park for young kids, there were several kid specific areas and a cute firefly show, theme park, and the way the exhibits are set up you almost always see the animals they're housing. We went for the My Hero Academia stamp rally and themed foods which turned out to be a tiny bucket of popcorn and very normal drinks (melon soda, cola, orange juice) with a picture on the straw. We also grabbed some merch from the shop but 90% of it was blind bag and only one of us got our favorite character. It was still a nice experience and we had fun walking around the zoo

You can have exciting experiences, such as feeding the animals and interacting with the small animals. From scary rides to heartwarming family attractions, there are more than 30 kinds of attractions for every visitor to enjoy all day. Search SUMMER in Saitama - Quick link to the best summer events and places to visit in Saitama, near Tokyo! One of Saitama’s best known: Tobu Zoo and amusement park White tiger Tobu Zoo I’ve brought the kids to Tobu Zoo a few times over the years. Our initial visit was about seven years ago and we weren’t as impressed with the zoo side on that first visit. However, they have improved the zoo over the years and we have grown to like it enough for the very occasional visit. But I personally wouldn’t put it in “the best of Saitama” list by any means. Our kids are a better age for Tobu Zoo now that we have no-one in nappies. I feel it is a zoo best suited to children upwards of preschool age. It is quite large, but not nearly large enough for the amount of animals they have. If you concentrate your visit to the zoo side it is certainly manageable. Accordingly, this post introduces only the zoo with only a little about the amusement park, summer pool and seasonal events. Tobu Zoo opened in 1981 as the 80th anniversary project of Tobu Railway. It is a popular hybrid theme park, comprised of a zoo, an attraction park and a swimming pool in an area of 530,000 sq. meters. There are so many ways to have fun, because of all the different kinds of activities and highlights packed into one space! You can either take it slow while watching the animals or enjoy all the different attractions. Everybody, from children to adults, can surely have a great time visiting this park. (Source: 東武動物公園) White Tiger: Symbol of Tobu Zoo The symbol of Tobu Zoo is the white tiger. These white tigers, native to India, are so rare that there are only 30 of them in all Japan. Exhibited in a glass cage, go take a look at the powerful white tiger. (Source: 東武動物公園) From Fierce to Fluffy You can see all kinds of animals, from fierce, wild ones with dynamic movements to small, fluffy creatures that will soothe your mind when you see and touch them. Popular activities are the alpaca's snacking time (additional fee applies) inside the "interactive forest" or picture-taking with the snowy owl. (Source: pixta) Over 35 Attractions At Tobu Zoo, there are over 35 attractions of various kinds, from thrilling rides to mellow rides that can be enjoyed by children. No matter your age, you can spend an entire day without getting bored! (Source: 東武動物公園) Roller Coaster "Kawasemi" and "Regina" Signature attractions are the over-water roller coaster Kawasemi (kingfisher) and over-water wooden roller coaster Regina. The up-and-down swift movements of Kawasemi is indeed just like a kingfisher. On Regina, which means the queen of fear, you can experience the typical rocking of a wooden ride and a thrill you cannot experience elsewhere. (Source: pixta) Heartful Land This area inside the attraction park is themed after a lively farm, where humans and animals live together in harmony. The area is like a charming world out of a picture book, with "Mr. Coquette's seeding airplane" and "Pirate Butahige's spinning tugboat". (Source: 東武動物公園) Illumination in Winter The Tobu Zoo Winter Illumination held during winter holds the second spot out of all the illumination in Saitama prefecture. A fantastic, lively atmosphere is created using projections of giant shapes created using LED lights and cylinder-shaped LED effects, music, screens and light.
