ARRIVAL

 

Do you know what’s great about Avilon Zoo? Unlike other zoos where you can smell the animals’ dirt from a distance, Avilon Zoo is surprisingly clean. Honestly, I didn’t even notice any unpleasant smells, there were times when I even found myself laughing about it. As soon as we got off the tricycle, we were struck by how expansive Avilon Zoo is. Before entering, we had to show our booking confirmation, we booked online for convenience. Some of us booked through the official Avilon website, where the prices start at 600 PHP for solo bookings. They also have a promo of 1000 PHP for 2 people and 1350 PHP for 3 people. Others among us booked through Klook, which also has the same price of 600 PHP for solo bookings, and they have a promo of Buy 3, Get 1 ticket for only 1800 PHP. By the way, their tickets are valid for 60 days, isn't that great! Once inside, we were amazed by the vastness of the zoo. It’s truly fascinating to see the variety of animals that Avilon has to offer, which we don’t encounter every day. You’ll also notice the caretakers here are very accommodating and hardworking. Right from the entrance, there were so many areas to explore, and it's a good idea to follow the signs as they guide you through the zoo. The signage is well-organized, making it easy to navigate. Avilon Zoo is a complete package, with ample signs and warnings throughout. It’s refreshing to see how well they maintain the environment, with plenty of trees around. After entering, we were so excited that we immediately started exploring the zoo!
