Plan Your Visit to Bioparco

Bioparco sits within Villa Borghese park, easily reached by metro to Flaminio station or bus routes stopping near the main entrance. The zoo operates year-round with seasonal opening hours, so check current times before your visit.

Arrive early for the best animal activity and cooler temperatures during summer months. Public feeding sessions happen throughout the day with schedules posted at the entrance. You can bring pushchairs, and rental options may be available on-site. Re-entry is permitted with hand stamp validation if you want to explore other Rome attractions in Villa Borghese and return later.

The park includes restaurants and snack kiosks, though many families prefer picnicking in the designated areas. Smoking is only allowed in marked zones throughout the grounds.
