The ARTIS Amsterdam Royal Zoo is a place where culture, nature, and heritage converge to form a fine blend. With your skip-the-line tickets, you can fly past queues and proceed directly to the entrance gate and gain access to the ARTIS Royal Zoo.

The zoo is divided into sections. You can spend ample time exploring each section at your pace. Gaze at zebras, giraffes, springboks, ostriches, and more species living in harmony on the Savannah. Be amazed by the countless number of butterflies fluttering at the Butterfly Pavilion.

If the mysteries of space interest you, make your way to the ARTIS Planetarium and enjoy a space adventure which takes place at 3 PM on weekdays and 1 PM on weekends. You can also access the ARTIS Aquarium which is home to several species including sharks, seahorses, piranhas, and tropical fish. Get a view of the Amsterdam Canal and understand the adverse effects of plastic on aquatic life.

Taking a stroll through the historical city park with its centuries-old trees and rich diversity of plants is relaxing in itself. You can also unwind by the fountain on Artisplein. In case you need refreshments, head to de Plantage, a café-restaurant located inside the premises.
