Adult (12–64) online price by date: €25 on 'Solidarity' days (21, 27, 28, 29 Nov, 2 and 11 Dec), otherwise €43, €49 or €52 (€52 over the Christmas holidays). Edenya: +€7.
Set around a former Cistercian abbey, Pairi Daiza houses thousands of animals in 'worlds' themed on China, South-East Asia, Africa and the polar north. In winter the park opens 10 am to 6 pm, including 24, 25 and 31 December and 1 January. Penguins, bears and reindeer in the Land of the Cold are in their element, and the Edelweiss chalet serves hot dishes at lunchtime. The steamy Edenya greenhouse costs extra. Tip: prices change by day, and the 'Solidarity' dates in late November and early December are far cheaper than the Christmas holidays; book online and arrive at opening, as it gets dark early. The park's Christmas atmosphere also features in our Lights & festivities section.
