Description
Le mélange parfait de nature et de culture
Combinez une journée au zoo royal d'Amsterdam ARTIS, le plus ancien zoo des Pays-Bas, avec une visite de Micropia, le premier et unique musée au monde consacré aux microbes. ARTIS, comme on appelle localement le zoo, est l'une des attractions touristiques les plus populaires d'Amsterdam. Le zoo a été fondé en 1838 et abrite des milliers d'animaux et plus de 700 espèces d'arbres et de plantes du monde entier.
Profitez d'une journée de détente au zoo, loin de l'agitation de la capitale néerlandaise. Rendez visite aux girafes et aux zèbres de la savane, découvrez le nouvel enclos des lions qui a ouvert ses portes en 2023, émerveillez-vous devant la force des éléphants et l'agilité des jaguars ou visitez le pavillon enchanteur des papillons. Laissez-vous surprendre par les nombreuses espèces qui se côtoient dans la Maison de la forêt et la Maison des oiseaux.
Apprenez-en plus sur le milieu de vie naturel des animaux et sur les efforts du zoo pour préserver les espèces menacées et la biodiversité. Le zoo comprend également un fascinant planétarium où vous serez accompagné dans une aventure dans l'espace. Voyagez à travers les étoiles, les lunes, les planètes et même des galaxies entières à la vitesse de la lumière.

Chouette expérience
Très beau zoo. Beaucoup de points d'eau. Les animaux sont magnifiques. Beaucoup de personnel et de points pisue nique. L'entree est chère mais la qualité est lâ.
Très bonne surprise
De passage à Amsterdam et étant fan d’animaux, ça a été plus fort que nous de visiter zoo. Quelle belle surprise, les enclos sont grands, très propres et les animaux semblent en paix. Ça fait du bien de voir ça !! Je recommande À 100%
Beau petit zoo
Cest la 2ème fois que nous visitons ce zoo. Petit zoo en plein centre-ville d'Amsterdam. Ce n'est pas très grand mais les espèces sont diversifiées. Le parc est bien entretenu avec des allées bien fleuries. Un plus pour la serre aux papillons.
Très beau parc zoologique fait dans l'après midi
Très beau parc zoologique au cœur de la ville. La volière aux papillons est très belle. Gratuit avec la carte I Amsterdam
Super zoo
Probablement une de nos meilleures visites de ce séjour. Super zoo à faire quand il fait pas trop mauvais. Plusieurs types d’animaux, zoo aéré. Le plan du zoo est payant (2€ de mémoire)
Impressionnant
Superbe ! Immense et de grande qualité Très varié et bien organisé A faire en famille ou entre amis Animaux de tous pays Site propre
Lovely zoo!
Really enjoyed my day at the zoo. The weather was showery but there were lots of exhibits under cover and I was delighted to see species I’d never seen before, such as the walk through Inca Tern exhibit. What a treat! There was a nice cafe, bathrooms and a gift shop.
Loved walking through the bird houses
Brilliant zoo! Big bird walk throughs and butterfly house. Quite large enclosures and information boards explaining improvements such as making the lion enclosure 10x bigger than it was, the elephants have a pool large/ deep enough for them to swim. Wouldn't have gone if we didn't have the i-amsterdam card to make the tram there and entrance "free" but glad we did.
Enjoyable zoo, especially for children
Impressive zoo, was a trip highlight for both of our children! It's a good size to explore for a few hours, with plenty to entertain all ages. Also, the landscaping was beautiful and rivaled some of the landscape at Keukenhof!
Absolutely amazing
Here on holiday with the family and decided to visit the zoo after it was recommended to me by a couple of my uni tutors. ARTIS is probably the best zoo I’ve ever been to. It feels like you are a part of the animals’ world as their enclosures are so well done and natural. The staff are really friendly and knowledgeable on the animals they are talking about.
Artis Zoo, un tuffo nella natura nel cuore della città
Giardino zoologico che sorge nella parte orientale della città, ha un'ampiezza di quattordici ettari ed ospita centinaia di specie animali: mammiferi, rettili, uccelli, insetti ed altrettante specie di piante ed alberi. Vale davvero la pena visitarlo e dedicargli almeno tre ore.
Really nice zoo
Really nice zoo , very clean and there’s sea lot of animals that I really like like the sea lines , chimps and the gorillas . Altogether it was a really nice experience.
Impressive zoo with ongoing maintenance. Excellent to see
Expect a good 2 to 3 hours of walking. And that's with the aquarium closed. Massive complex that has renovations ongoing all over. Big open spaces, non cramped habitats for the animals. Did a good deed and handed in a dropped bank card and other things to reception yesterday. Hopefully the lady got her items back. Staff and maintenance are everywhere. The planetarium is for children and all in Dutch.
Bello
Zoo molto bello vicino al centro città e facilmente raggiungibile con il bus di linea..animali ben tenuti e spazi abbastanza ampi
Gorgeous zoo, prep your walking shoes!
We loved the zoo! Including a lunch break we were there from 11am till about 5pm. I didn’t care that aquarium and a bunch of exhibits were out of order, it’s just part of a big place like that that some things might not be available to be viewed at times. Certainly plenty to see. The cafes had a good selection of meals as well. Gift shop had many cool souvenirs there. Our only 2 criticisms was that the puma and leopard enclosures which looked so tight and small. I mean the puma was very unhappy and walked in circles :( We really hope they get an upgrade soon, just like the other animals have! Second, the walkthrough bird area (the black body/ red beak birds) - rocks could do with a frequent wash down. It reeked and looked so bad. Otherwise, beautiful inner city zoo!!
Aangename ervaring
Een heel mooi en verzorgd park. Leuk dat je in sommige stukken tussen de dieren kan lopen en ze kan bezichtigen van dichtbij. Speciale ervaring om een dierenpark te bezichtigen in een stad. Wij namen een lunch in het restaurant vlak aan de ingang en waren tevreden, het was verzorgt en lekker.
So much to enjoy, great for nature lovers
Bigger than it looks on the map. Absolutely stunning. So much nature everywhere. The bird house and butterfly house was my favourite. Lovely to see so many herons everywhere nesting in the trees with the storks and rose-ringed parakeets. I noticed that the animals all looked happy, except the wolves who could do with a bigger enclosure. Also funny how some of the animals seem to come to see you. This is definitely a place where you need to take your time to enjoy everything the zoo has to offer. Wish there was an English map.
Artis Not just a Zoo
Artis "Zoo" is a fantastic day out. All animals in a conservation setting to help their wild counterparts. A baby black jaguar had been born late 2024. An incredible sight cuddled up with it's mum. There's plenty to see from butterfly, insect, reptiles and big elephants giraffe and zebras. Cafes are dotted about for rest breaks and lots of helpful and knowledgeable staff on hand to explain things. Your ticket also gets you a discount into Micropia the microbe experience which is all indoors and fascinating with interactive exhibits for everyone old and young. Two tram stops get you either 5 mins walk or right outside the main gate. Well worth the visit we got lost in the adventure for 5 hours.
The best zoo I have ever been to
This is the best Zoo I have ever been too. This zoo has a planetarium that I had to record and post it on my YouTube channel. We learned about animals with the following characteristics and descriptions. I learned about planets and stars with the planetarium video with information and comparing the inner and outer solar system including Pluto, also known as the dwarf planet. I would recommend on watching the planetarium
Hele mooie dierentuin
ARTIS is een hele fijne dierentuin! Soms vergeet je gewoon dat je midden in Amsterdam zit. We konden verschillende dieren van heel kortbij zien. Het personeel was heel vriendelijk personeel en stonden altijd klaar voor uitleg of hulp bij het vinden van dieren. Ook waren er veel banken om uit te rusten en veel groen.
Best zoo I’ve been to!
Amazing zoo! They have so many animals and everything you would want to see/do. Lots of cafes and friendly staff if you need anything. Would definitely go again!
was just what I needed !!!!
I went to ARTIS after visiting the National Holocaust Museum, which was pretty heavy, so I wanted to chill and watch some animals, on entyry to the zoo a chimp ran above me between tree's making a racket, which was just what I needed !!!! I went in quite late and most of the big animals were already in their houses and out of sight, like lions, Elephants, Giraffes etc, so abit disappouiting, but was a good walk around to clear my head. White wolves were cool, Ape & Bird house were interesting. It is quite a small zoo these days, being old and in a city centre, but animals look well looked after. I went to this as I had the Iamsterdam card which gave free access, so worth checking out the Iamsterdam card, as I saved allot of money by using the card and tried a few things I would not have paid for, like this one, which turned out to be a highlight of my trip.
Nice Zoo.
Good attraction. There is more than one cafe on site. Lots of animals to see. Worth a trip. We used out "I Amsterdam City tourist card". when we visited on a Saturday, wasnt too busy. East to get to from Amsterdam Central station. The ARTIS-Groote Museum is located on site too. Very interesting museum.
A day out for the family
We spent the best part of a day at the Artis Zoo. There were a good variety of animals to see even in the cold weather. Easy to get to, just jump on the number 14 Tram and get off at the Artis stop and the Zoo is across the road. A variety of snack places are available and also a good gift shop. Kids will love it here with all the animals to see and play areas for them to jump around. Al i all, good value for money and a good day out.
magical spot to experience
A beautiful spot in Amsterdam. surrounding the zoo and inside the zoo it feels like a magical place. the food is really good in the restaurant even though it is vegetarian and vegan, i was pleasantly surprised how good it tasted. lovely elephants and giraffes who seem to be very happy and very curious of the guests
Great visit
Good visit to this zoo. Animals are well cared for and staff informative. Quite a few cafes within the zoo. This was a return visit as we were here in 2018.
Molto bello
Posto bellissimo dove gli animali hanno i giusti spazi in cui vivere. Grande varietà di animali e parco molto bello e grande
Fantastic zoo! 100% would recommend
Highlight of our trip. This zoo was fantastic and so reasonably priced! You can literally walk through animal enclosures and could get much closer to some of the bigger animals compared to any other zoo I’ve been to. Yes some enclosures could be slightly bigger but it reassured me that these animals were all rescued. The staff we interacted with were so friendly and I would recommend this zoo to anyone
It was amazing!
My girlfriend and I bought ticktets for the whole thing, but sadly we only had time for the ZOO and Micropia. Both were delightful experiences! The Micropia center is very interesting and fun - they give you stuff to do and you can interact with basically everything. And the ZOO is just huge and amazing! All of the people who work there are very helpful and you can practically ask them anything about the animals. Loved it❤️
Happy day at zoo
I normally get sad about zoos, because animals are in cages but this wasn’t like it. They got their own areas, not small cages, and clearly they enjoyed their life - or almost all others than couple wallabies, who looked like they are annoyed and hate everyone. Paths were clear, there were benches and staff was super helpful. Definately recommend! Ticket was quite expensive.
An amazing zoo
Me and my partner had amazing time at artis Amsterdam zoo first the staff was very nice and welcoming and the animals habitat was so clean and they seem so happy and so much space to move around and enjoy a natural life so wanted to share my thoughts. Best zoo I been to so far.
A lovely day
Our group had free entry to the zoo with our IAmsterdam cards, and I’m glad we went. It was a super zoo and you got some good looks at the animals, particularly the elephants and the cute baby giraffe currently there! The enclosures are quite small as it’s a city zoo but it seems well managed. We also visited Micropia (separate entry fee but also free with our cards) which was a brilliant museum and far exceeded our expectations as a last day of the holiday activity.
Great experience. I saw a zoo looking after their animals.
I was looking for someone else to see and do in Amsterdam, so I did this zoo trip, and what a great experience I had there, The animals all looked very well kept and healthy plus going round it was all very clean so easy to just walk around, beautiful animals inside and the elephants looked amazing big healthy and well looked after.
Great zoo!
Enjoyed this zoo on my previous trip to Amsterdam so decided to visit again this time (I actually ended up going twice!). The zoo it situated in a quieter area of Amsterdam and it easily accessible by tram or walking. Staff were all really friendly and the zoo was easy to navigate. I'd highly recommend visiting the cafe situated over the left side of the park, near the giraffe and zebra enclosure. There is a great terrace where you can sit and watch the animals. Overall a great activity if you're looking for something different to do while in Amsterdam!
A hidden place to discover
Found by walking from my Hotel The Lancaster across the road. What an amazing surprise to see flamingos dancing in their pond. The wonderful layout of this incredible area is just like finding a jewel in the jungle. The panther and its chilling call. The beautiful trees as you stroll from animal to animal the elephants the giraffes, the new and beautiful lions den. Enjoy their space. I spent the day just absorbing it all.
Amazing find in Amsterdam
Amazed at the amount if space and animals there were here. Definitly worth a visit. Loads to see and do for adults and kids. Loads of restaurants and cafes as well.
Kort visit i Artis
Fantastisk indrettet park med tage højde for dyrevelfærd, masser af dyr i gode omgivelser personalet meget hjælpsomme
Al jaren niet meer....
Goed, we waren al jaren niet meer in een dierentuin geweest, maar Artis viel niet tegen. Mooi leuk park in het centrum van Amsterdam. Veel dieren gezien die niet standaard in je op komen. Compact met veel wandelpaden, groen en rust plekken. Gevoel van te kleine ruimtes speelt hier en daar wel op. Een krokodil van 6 meter hoort echt niet in een klein badje te liggen. Het arme beest kan geen kant op. Veel verblijven zijn toe aan een upgrade. Het zal wat kosten om elke dag zo'n park draaiende te houden. Het was er op een zondag wel behoorlijk druk. We miste alleen de ijsberen nog.
The Best Zoo
I have been to this zoo many times and every time was a brilliant experience. I asked my friend what animal do you want to see. He said elephants and literally less than 30 minutes later we saw 4 beautiful elephants, one large male, 2 large females and 2 lovely babies. They were less than 5 meters away so we got a great view of their size and behaviour. It was such a lovely experience to be able to show my friend and enjoy the up close and personal experience myself. My favourite part is the walk in enclosure where you are up close to the sloths, marmosets and lizards with absolutely no fence or cage in between. You walk into their world, you see what they see with nothing in between. The cafes and food courts are very reasonably priced. With the view of giraffes and zebras walking by as you eat your meal is just next world worthy. I have been to many zoos all over Europe and this zoo is by far the best. Every time I visit it has been updated and improved upon so you see where your entrance fee is being spent. Overall if you like animals and want to see them in a minimal enclosure that is safe but lets the animals roam free then this is the zoo for you.
Perfect familie uitje
Heerlijke dag gehad met mijn dochter van 9,5. Het park is prachtig, erg mooi aangelegd en de eetbare tuinen zijn geweldig. Het is er schoon en heel prettig om te lopen. Veel dieren kunnen zien en er is genoeg informatie over de dieren. Aardig personeel.
Defo worth a visit
This is the best zoo we’ve ever visited - you can get so close to the animals and they have so much more space. There are a lot of different areas that overlap above and below ground, it feels very natural and flowy
Great family day out
An enjoyable day out for our family. We booked the zoo as a space filler between other bookings and thought we’d pop in for a couple of hours. We didn’t have high hopes but we were wrong. We got round the zoo and saw everything in about 1.5 hours but we could have easily stayed twice as long. Even our teen daughters enjoyed it which is really saying something!
Excellent zoo, very impressed
Very impressed with ARTIS, especially for a city zoo. Very well maintained and looked after throughout, with well thought out and enriched enclosures. Wide range of animals with excellent displays. Very rare to see so many captive animals so relaxed and displaying so many normal behaviours. Would highly recommend and love to come back.
Nachmittagsspaziergang
Schöner Zoo mit gut angelegten Gehegen und wunderschönen gepflegten Blumenrabatte. Kann man bedenkenlos weiterempfehlen.
Not sure about this zoo, it was good as a zoo but didn’t mention any animal saving work so is it just cruelty for profit
I’m never sure with zoos. Are they protecting example of a species with programmes to rewind offspring or have they just ‘acquired’ animals (how?) from their natural habitat? Some zoos tell you all about their animal programs. I didn’t see much of this. There were a couple of programs mentioned for people which is something. If you put the potential cruelty aside it is a lovely place to visit. Well laid out to spread the people. Lots of greenery including beautiful edible gardens everywhere. Loads of animals to see. On a downside there was a dead bird in with some grass eating mammals, the elephants didn’t look like they had much greenery and the chimps were having lots of fights, could be natural behaviour, could be stress or lack of space.
ARTIS Amsterdam Royal Zoo - 28/06/2024
ARTIS Amsterdam Royal Zoo - 28/06/2024 A really enjoyable zoo we went to on our trip to Amsterdam. I have not been to a zoo in a while and I forgot how fun they are! We were there for 2-3 hours, really good fun!
Huge zoo, great vibe
This zoo is huge the enclosures are large and it’s relatively easy to navigate your way around! They have good facilities although we brought our own food from the local shop! We didn’t do the aquarium but we spent the whole day at the zoo alone so we wouldn’t have had time to do both! Luckily we were able to see the majority of the animals who were all lying around or enjoying the enrichment in their environments I would definitely recommend this place if you want a fun day out and it is family friendly too
Very good
I would definitely recommend paying a visit to this zoo. They have a wide variety of animals to look at. The admission fee was 15€ each (students) which we found to be very affordable. The zoo itself is clean and easy to walk around and staff were friendly . There is a small gift shop on site and a large place to eat . Overall if you’re looking for something to do in Amsterdam this is worth the visit !
Beautiful zoo great day out! Hard to beat a visit here for animal lovers!
Wonderful day lovely zoo in beautiful setting: I would highly recommend it. Also very interesting to read up on its history especially during ww2 see Google ! Entry isn’t cheap But 2 euros for z map was worth it for the children to navigate their visit independently! Nice little outdoor cafe good coffee and cakes As a disabled visitor the park is Accessible we only hit one set of steps which stopped us visiting a very small section.parking I believe was 16 euros but easy to find and right outside the entrance perfect for disabled guests and little people and the end of the day! We’re we’re there all day and covered most of it leisurely but would go back to see what we missed because the kids were in charge and prioritised their favourites! Vegans catered very well for in one restaurant kids didn’t notice their nuggets weren’t chicken. They were really nice! Highlights: our a beautifully planted green space Stand still in the butterfly house and znd they come to you. Nice playgrounds around the zoo to burn off excited energy Our kids loved the large reptile house Gift shop was beautiful high quality otoys but with high prices a few pocket money items but not many.
Visited from the UK
The zoo's size I'd very impressive! Some of the enclosures are not the best size. The makaaks only have a tiny enclosure and the penguins didn't have deep enough water to swim in. The overall experience was very good and the gyro pizza that the restaurant offers was brilliant!
Très bel endroit !
Superbe expérience dans ce musée qui est très instructif. Nous avons clairement appris des choses et la visite se fait bien en 1h30.
Découvrir l’infiniment petit...
Super expérience dans ce musée original qui nous fait découvrir ce que nos yeux ne peuvent voir sans microscope... Très bien fait, à la fois scientifique et ludique, nous avons beaucoup aimé!
Fortement recommandé
Vraiment impressionnant et éducatif, autant pour les enfants que les adultes. Le personnel est très gentil et passionné.
Expo sympa
L’expérience est très chouette et ludique, pour les adultes et les enfants. Le personnel est super accueillant. Je recommande.
Super musée
Super musée! Ça change de ce qu’on peut voir. Super intéressant les bactéries et microbes etc. À faire sans hésiter !!!! Se fait assez rapidement, en 1h à 1h30. Vestiaires gratuits à l’entrée
Génial ! À faire
On a adoré ! De la montée par l’ascenseur à la sortie tout était génial et très bien présenté ! Très ludique, on a en plus pu participer à l’explication d’une personne du musée / labo. Vestiaire gratuit et prix du ticket (35€ pour deux) finalement bien rentabilisé car nous y avons passé un peu plus de 2h ! Seul regret de ne pas avoir pris un billet combiné pour faire le zoo
La biologie pour tous !
J'ai beaucoup apprécié passer du temps dans ce musée qui m'a rappelé mes années de fac. A l'étage on y découvre la microbiologie, avec des interactions entre les êtres vivants, des cultures cellulaires, une belle collection de microorganismes en Pétri. Le rez-de-chaussée est plutôt orienté biotechnologies (fermentation, biocarburants..). Les expositions sont très ludiques, et conviennent totalement à ceux qui ne sont pas du domaine, au contraire, c'est l'assurance d'apprendre plein de chose ! Un monsieur est même présent pour donner des explications supplémentaires. Toutefois, je le trouve moins adapté aux jeunes enfants.
Excellent !
Il n'était pas prévu dans le planning et puis on avait un peu de temps, il était inclus dans notre pass... Et on n'a pas été déçues bien au contraire ! Ce musée est vraiment incroyable ! Une réelle expérience immersive, des tas d'infos géniales ! C'est tout ce monde qui vit avec nous que l'on ne voit pas, parfois fascinant, parfois répugnant ! Mais tellement captivant ! Allez-y sans hésiter ! (Pas de français par contre c'est mieux si vous comprenez l'anglais) Il y a aussi un jeu pour les enfants (ou grands enfants!) de collecte des microbes ;)
Fascinating insight into Microbes!
What a fascinating place. My teen, tween and I absolutely loved our visit to this interactive museum experience. It was brilliant to see all the various types of tiny critters under the microscopes, meet the microbes biologists and learn about the world of microbiology. It really inspired my 11 year old. It is worth allocating a couple of hours to visit and is well worth it.
Microbes galore!
This museum is a quick stop with some interesting exhibits to see. More fitting for adolescents, but it was still a fun stop along our way. In this museum you will see microbes, fungi, and virus from a variety of sources. There were fun, interactive exhibits on the 1 and 2 floors.
Unexpected artwork and brilliant displays
Beautifully displayed in a variety of visual and oral presentations, ARTIS Micropia was a delight even for this adult who is creeped out by the thought of mites living in my eyelashes! The space inside is extremely clean, well-organized, and spacious enough for groups and strollers / buggies. We went through a gate into the introductory area and waited for the elevator while learning about the first microscope and its creator. On the upper floor we were immersed in darkness to support looking through microscopes and seeing black-light illuminated substances. All placards were offered in both Dutch and English. The exhibits are touchable and there is a card that can be picked up upon entrance to stamp at various exhibits with an image of the featured microbe or organism. Back on the main floor is natural light with a tapestry version of fungus and video showing how the tapestry came together. Blown glass models of microscopic organisms also on display above dioramas. An interactive 6-foot long screen of a “sick person” for you to explore and heal their ails. Food with bacterial and fungal growth also on display and an explanation of preservatives’ impact. My 18-year old artist student was fascinated and enjoyed this museum tremendously. We were onsite for just about 2 hours. We are from the USA and used the Museumkaart tourist pass for entrance. There is a yummy burger spot across the block, and next door to that wonderful ice cream and sorbet. Make an afternoon of it!
Hidden universe of microscopic life
The best museum ever to unlock the mysteries of the microscopic world. Microscopic life, up close: You get to see microorganisms that are usually invisible to the naked eye — through high-tech microscopes and interactive exhibits. Live microbes: Many of the displays show living organisms doing their thing in real time. Microbe passport: Visitors can collect "microbes" in a virtual passport — it’s part science, part game. Everyday connections: It shows how microbes live on us, in us, and around us — from gut health to cheese making to environmental cleanup.
Original museo único en el mundo
Único en el mundo ,excelente visita, merece la pena No es caro para lo que se ofrece 17 euros entrada por persona. Excelente para visitar en familia ,los niños disfrutaran. Mucha parte interactiva.
Go and dive into the smallest living creatures world
The smallest living creatures in the world are presented in a creative way. You are invited to join in, smart applications make that you can follow bacteria, fungae, virusses in a beautiful way, with pictures, videos etc. There is even a 'kiss experience' :-) I was on my own, but surrounded by teenagers who loved the expereince, also as they had do perform little experiments and tasks. Then a biology student told us, in fluent English, how they run the museum, its labs and how they keep the small world alive. It was wonderful.
Fun for all ages
On returning home, the customs agent asked our son what his favorite thing in Amsterdam was and he said this place. It far exceeded our expectations. It was very educational in a fun way (unless you are a germaphobe!) It was fun to see leaf cutter ants in action, too! I loved the glass art microbes on the first floor. Fun for all ages.
Discover the hidden world of microbes at micropia
Micropia in Amsterdam is a truly fascinating museum dedicated to the world of microbes. You get the unique opportunity to see live microbes under a microscope, which is both educational and mesmerizing. The museum also features a lab where you can learn more about the science behind these tiny organisms. One of the highlights is the "Microbe of the Week," where researchers give a short and engaging presentation about a specific microbe, making the experience even more interactive and fun. It’s a must-visit for anyone curious about the unseen world around us!
Wonderful concept and beautifully presented
Nothing like anything I've seen before! Almost everything in the museum is interactive. It's very fun and interesting for both kids and adults (no matter if you have a specific interest in the field or not). The exhibit is very diverse, and it doesn't get boring. We spent about two hours inside.
Leuk museum
Super fijn museum, niet te druk waardoor we alles op ons gemakje konden bekijken. Het is heel leerrijk en interactief: je kan alle microben onder de microscoop bekijken en stempels verzamelen.
A zoo for microbes!
Great attraction, suitable for adults, teens and young kids with interactive exhibits and tons of microbes to learn more about. You can scan your body, analyse a kiss, and study life under a microscope. Everyone working there was super friendly and happy to help too. A fun and unique experience.
Et besøg værd
Har en datter som går op i emnet. Var lidt skeptisk på hvad jeg ville synes. Blev meget positivt overrasket. Spændende på en interaktiv måde. En stor anbefaling.
Super spændende og interaktivt museum.
Virkelig godt og spændende museum! Meget god og lærerig viden om diverse mikrobakterier, formidlet på en utrolig god måde. Man var med hele vejen igennem, og selv en der ikke interesserer sig specielt for emnet, kan være med. Kan helt klart anbefales til alle.
Well worth visiting. Probably highlight of the trip for my teen
Smallish but super interesting. Right next to zoo. My teen especially likes tardigrades, and there was lots to look at; we were there for about 2 hours. Good interactive exhibits.

Very interesting museum!
We visited this on our first full day in Amsterdam. There are so many interesting exhibits to look at and the interactive exhibits really add to the experience (as well as being able to collect stamps as you go round!). We have recommended this to friends and family too!
Interactive and interesting museum
Great museum! Very interesting content displayed in an interactive and visually pleasing way. You could see live microbes under microscopes that you could operate yourself. A fun afternoon out for adults and kids alike!
great museum
as a microbiology student, this place was amazing!! i could have spent all day here. absolutely attend one of the daily talks if you can, it was fascinating. there is a ton of information and unusual microbes, plus rate opportunities to look down microscopes at microbes such as unusual algae - something i particularly enjoyed! even if you aren't particularly interested in micro you will still enjoy an hour or more visiting here. :)
Zoo der etwas anderen Art
Sehr schöner Zoo der etwas anderen Art. An viele Stationen lässt sich mikrobilologisches Leben live beobachten. Ergänzt werden sie Stationen mit informativen Filmen in mehreren Sprache. Der Zoo erstreckt sich über zwei Etagen, dadurch ist er räumlich sehr klein aber mit hohem Informationsgehalt.
Educational Museum
This is a very interesting and educational museum about the origin of bacteria and fungi. Everything is explained very descriptive. It has plenty top try out - not only perfect for children.
Verruiming van je wereld.
Leuk museum, dat laat zien hoe de "kleine natuur" om ons heen belangrijk is voor ons bestaan, maar ook ziekten kan veroorzaken. Zowel voor kinderen als volwassenen leuk. En men leert alles om zich heen te waarderen. Het enige minpunt is, dat er bij het naar binnengaan wordt aangegeven dat er op vastgestelde tijden ( die kenbaar worden gemaakt ) een laborant komt, die ook nog van alles kan zien, en waar je vragen aan kan stellen. Wel: deze laborant komt dus NIET....
Sitio increïble para ir a visitar si te gusta el mundo de la microbiologia o tienes curiosidad por el mundo microscopico
Espacio amplio, muy limpio, muy bien decorado. Hay taquillas para dejar tus cosas antes de entrar y la experiencia muy bonita, sin duda volveria!
Unglaublich
Das einzige Mikrobenmuseum der Welt. In der Beschreibung steht, man besichtigt es in ca. 90 Minuten. Ich habe mehr als drei Stunden hier verbracht und mich nicht gelangweilt. Einfach toll gemacht und man erfährt auch als totaler Laie, der ich war, viel Spannendes beim Einblick in die Welt der Mikroben
Good visit, worth a look.
Daughter was excited to visit this museum, and she loved it. Very informative, not huge but had lots to look at. Adults enjoyed it too. Only downside was the ticket doesn’t allow you access to the gift shop. Daughter wanted an Artis de Partis toy, and we weren’t allowed in to the shop to purchase one. We travelled to the station to purchase, which was a bit of a trek, so that was annoying.
Unique museum experience
Def a great alternative to the typical art museums when visiting the city. Super interesting and informative experience and great for all ages. The nerd in me loved every moment. I would highly recommend. Also next to the zoo and can combine tix for a small discount.
Aanschouwelijke en leuke tentoonstelling
Vandaag een bezoek gebracht aan Micropia. De tentoonstelling is zeer aanschouwelijk en gestructureerd opgesteld. De informatie is duidelijk en eenvoudig geformuleerd om het te begrijpen. Het feit dat je doorheen de tentoonstelling stempels kan verzamelen om je eigen 'microscopisch beeld' is een leuke meerwaarde. We hebben er ongeveer een klein uurtje gespendeerd.
Disgustingly fab!
Who knew gross little microbes could be so fascinating? Lots of interesting exhibits & displays full of interesting facts and info. The body scan is particularly disturbing! For all ages but young ones will really enjoy it. Good fun.
Tolles Konzept um Wissenschaft zu vermitteln
So ganz anders im Vergleich zu den verschiedenen Kunstmuseen in Amsterdam; hier wird Wissen auf eine sehr schöne und originelle Weise vermittelt über die kleinsten Lebewesen.
Let your inner science Geek explore
This place was amazing. My science nerd of a husband really wanted to go. I have to say I am glad we did. All of the interactive exhibits are well done, educational and entertaining. We were there for almost three hours, the time just flew. I guess my inner science nerd was allowed to shine.
Unique Museum
A wonderfully designed museum with a real sense of humor; it kept family and friends engaged for 1-2 hours.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Wow!! In Micropia gaat er letterlijk een nieuwe wereld voor je open. Wat kunnen microben prachtig zijn. Echt een aanrader💕
Leuk museum
Ontzettend leuk dat er nu ook een dierentuin is die aandacht heeft bacteriën en schimmels. Het is mooi opgezet en ingericht. Het enige minpuntje is dat als het een beetje druk is, zoals afgelopen zaterdag, dat je staat te wachten om door een microscoop te kunnen kijken.
Un mundo microscópico a simple vista
Fantástico museo para aprender sobre el mundo microscópico, para adultos y pequeños. Sobre todo para los pequeños puede ser una gran experiencia que les introduzca un poco más en la ciencia y el conocimiento de nuestro mundo. Muy interpretativo y textos sencillos, aunque estén en inglés lo entenderán perfectamente.
Una hermosa experiencia
Soy microbióloga y la forma en la que presentan los microorganismos en este lugar, es hermosa! Me encantó, disfrute cada microorganismo, cada explicación. Quizá sería mejor si hubiese alguien que estuviese pendiente cuando hay personas con dudas. Por mi parte me puse a explicarle a algunas personas qué es lo que veían y la pasé genial jeje
Interessante ma migliorabile
Idea interessante, andando verso le 15 non era affollato, inserirei del personale all'interno per qualche delucidazione. Prezzo forse un po' caro, premio però l'originalità. È vicino allo zoo e ad un ampio spazio all'aperto con tavoli e sedie
Intressant och ovanligt
Interaktivt museum med ovanligt fokus (mikroorganismer). Lite för mycket folk under besöket gjorde det svårt att testa allt, men på det hela taget välorganiserat och med tydlig besöksordning. Lagom med skyltar och intryck.
imponerend mooi en interessant
dit museum zou iedereen een keer moeten bezoeken al is het alleen al om te ervaren hoe prachtig het is ingericht
Fascinerende; illustrativ og interaktiv
Fascinerende udstilling, der både er illustrativ og interaktiv. Det er måske ikke det oplagte for en mikrobiolog, men andre med interesse i biologi, kan passende besøge stedet. Både for voksne og for børn.
Veel te vertellen over zoiets kleins
Mega interessant dat er zoveel te vertellen is over microben die zo klein zijn dat je ze niet eens met het blote oog kan zien. Ook een leuk mini college over de voortplanting van algen.
Spannend und informativ
Spannend und informativ. Es war sehr interessant einige Mikroben selber durch ein professionelles Mikroskop anzusehen. Die Themengestaltung war vielfältig und wurde der Breite des Themas gerecht. Die Beiträge waren sind für alle Levels von Vorwissen verständlich und interessant und bei Fragen war immer jemand vom Museum zu finden der diese beantworten konnte. Mein Highlight waren die Leuchtbakterien und Fische
Spannende Microwelten
Dieses Museum hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Die Welt der Mikroorganismen wird hier sehr anschaulich und leicjht verständlich gezeigt. An jeder Station kann man selbst etwas entdecken oder bedienen. Zusätzlich kann man in einem Stempelheft bei dem Rundgang 30 Microorganismen sammeln.
