A tour on the equator at the Moscow Zoo

The animals live in the Elephants, Giraffes, Tropical Cats and Bird House enclosures in the old part of the zoo. Visitors will be able to see giraffes, tapirs and rare red pandas, as well as watch penguins swim in their pool.

The tour will then proceed to the new part of the zoo, where visitors will travel into a world of sound and colour in the Birds and Butterflies enclosure and see several types of primates, including gorillas and marmosets. The tour will conclude with a view of animals from the African savannah.

These tours are held Saturdays at 11 am and 1 pm. Tickets are available on the site of the Moscow Zoo.
