Blijdorp Rotterdam Zoo combined tickets

Which Rotterdam Zoo combo to book

Families. Rotterdam Zoo + Pancake Boat is the most booked bundle. Kids get the animals and the Oceanium at Blijdorp, then a pancake cruise on the Maas. Book the boat for the afternoon so you aren't watching the clock at the zoo.

First visit to Rotterdam. Rotterdam Cruises + Rotterdam Zoo pairs the zoo with a harbour highlights cruise, the best-rated of the bigger combos. It's a good way to see the bridges, skyline and port from the water.

Something different. Rotterdam Zoo + Splashtour adds the amphibious bus that drives through the city and then splashes into the river. Fun for kids, and it can sell out in busy periods, so book the time slot early.

Smaller options. Rotterdam Zoo + Guided River Cruise and Rotterdam Zoo + Pizza Cruise have only a handful of reviews, all good. Rotterdam Zoo + Remastered in Rotterdam pairs the zoo with an indoor audiovisual show, handy if it rains.

Everything at once. The Rotterdam Pass bundles the zoo, the harbour cruise and Remastered in Rotterdam.

Is a combo cheaper than separate tickets?

The two-part bundles are a little cheaper than buying the tickets separately. It's a small saving plus one checkout. The Rotterdam Pass is priced as one product, so compare it with the parts you'd really use.

How the tickets work

You book once and get a separate ticket for each part on your phone. Choose a date for the zoo and a departure time for the boat, and check where each boat leaves from, as the boats don't start at the zoo. Cancellation conditions can differ per part, so read them on the booking page.

For more pairs see the Rotterdam combo tickets, or the Amsterdam and The Hague pages for a day trip.
