Adventures for visitors with special needs
Our zoo should be a place of experience and recreation for everyone, and so it is our aim to provide unique experiences for target groups with special needs as well. We therefore offer special guided tours for older people, people with special physical needs or in foreign languages.
We would be happy to plan a personalised visit to the zoo with you. Our colleagues look forward to your personal visit to our Central Visitor Service every day between 10.00 am and 4.00 pm and will be happy to advise you on all aspects of our wide range of services. During this time, you can also reach us by telephone on 0203-604 44251 or by email at servicebuero@zoo-duisburg.de
Guided tours for senior citizens
Groups of senior citizens are cordially invited to take a varied walk through the tree-lined zoo in a relaxed atmosphere. For one-and-a-half hours, one of our expert zoo keepers will tell you all about zoo life and, of course, about the zoo's animals. After the guided tour, the visit to the zoo ends in an easy-going manner with coffee and cake in the Africa Lodge. This event is also suitable for wheelchair users. If required, a limited number of wheelchairs can be provided.
