Coronavirus (COVID-19)

If you are planning on travelling distance to attractions, we would recommend that you contact the venues directly in advance to avoid disappointment.

If you, or any of your party have a new persistant cough, or develop a fever of 38C, we would instead advise you to use the NHS's dedicated website for professional advice.

Edinburgh Zoo

Scotland's largest and most popular wildlife attraction. See over 1,000 animals - furry, feathery and scaly - from the tiny blue poison arrow frog to the massive white rhino. Discover the world's largest penguin pool (complete with underwater viewing), a fountain-filled maze and our exciting African Plains exhibit. Don't miss the famous penguin parade, March to October (weather permitting). Visit The Magic Forest, home to our tiniest primates and take the safari bus to the hill top. Special events and activities throughout the year. Lovely gift shop and restaurant.
