Fota Wildlife Park Tours

Whether you're in family, group of friends, tourists, or couple visiting Fota, you are sure to have a genuinely fantastic and enjoyable visit. Fota Wildlife Park offers visitors an up close place to come in contact with a diverse range of different animals. Very enjoyable walk around the park for all. Animals appear to be kept in good condition and are safe. There is a shop and small restaurant here, but prices can be high. Bringing some sort of packed lunch with you is recommended. Fota is easily accessible via car or via train from Cork City train station with a train stop on the route right outside an entrance to Fota.

Fota is such a great place to spend a day, especially when it's sunny. We go here every couple of years and always great to see how it's expanding every time we visit. The park is quite big, there's plenty of different animals to see and the food isn't to bad either. It's cool to be able to feed the ducks and pheasants by having them eat the food from your hand. While it doesn't have the variety of animals as other zoo's, it certainly makes up for it with the amount of space the animals have to roam, rather than being kept in a confined space. Well worth the visit if in cork!

A wonderful place in Cork. A lovely way to experience a variety of animal species. This is a conservation zoo primarily which means all of the animals are there to protect the species. Multiple programs reintroduce these animals back to their natural habitats. Couple with this amazing work is a fabulous day out. It is an amazing adventure with kids but even as an adult you will find something to enjoy here. I would highly recommend the behind the scenes tours. They are guided and the wardens are so kowledgeable about the various animals and their stories. Great day out!
