🦒Animal Parks, Zoos & Farms in Auckland

Animals hold the attention of small children more reliably than almost anything else, and Auckland spans the full range — a major zoo, aquariums, working farm parks where kids can feed animals, and quieter wildlife sanctuaries.

Farm parks tend to be better value and more hands-on than the big attractions, especially for under-fives who want to touch things rather than look at them. Many run scheduled feeding sessions worth timing your visit around.
