We chose this day trip without much information beforehand. It made for a great day with our toddler and school-aged child. The petting zoo and the not-to-be-petted zoo was included in the €5 PER CAR (not per person) fee. The playground was huge and excellent for both our kids.We paid extra for the inflatable castles and kids rope course (€11/child for a day pass).Lunch at the kiosk was reasonably priced, but nothing special, chicken nuggets and fries and the like. Lots of ice cream choices, even a few vegan ice creams.We saw several puppet shows, I’m not sure if that’s a regular event or just for the holiday weekend, but they were free (for tips), fun, and very interactive.I recommend this park! On a budget you could bring a picnic and only pay €5 for the whole family and still have an amazing day.My favorites were the bears, and watching my kids feed and pet the goats and sheep.
