MAUBEUGE ZOO
Activities: We visited the zoo, which is built in the heart of the city. We spent about half a day there, arriving around noon to visit at our own pace until 2:30 PM, when the feeding sessions start. We saw hippos, giraffes, elephants, white tigers, and more. We entered the contact zone where we entered the world of sheep and llamas
Highlights: The kids loved the contact zone where they could pet and feed the animals. They also enjoyed seeing the hippos eat fruit and watching the mother crane brooding over her eggs. We also appreciated the clear and precise signs and the various announcements that made the visit educational ✨
