A family outing to the Zoo de La Boissière du Doré

A must for visitors between Nantes and Cholet!

During your stay at the Best Western Hotel San Benedetto, spend an unforgettable time with your family at the Zoo de La Boissière du Doré. Situated 30 minutes from Nantes and Cholet, in the heart of the Nantes vineyards, the Zoo de la Boissière du Doré offers a beautiful family walk that is totally exotic!

 

Well known as one of the most beautiful animal parks in France.

Covering more than 20 hectares, this animal park invites you to discover more than 1000 animals living in a green and natural setting. 70 species live and reproduce in carefully reconstituted natural areas.

Let yourself be surprised by giraffes, rhinos, zebras, ostriches, lions, tigers, cheetahs, black panthers and many more!

Large wooden footbridges will allow you to observe the animals of the African plains such as giraffes, zebras, antelopes without forgetting the family of rhinoceros (of which a white baby rhino was born in February 2021!) and the group of African lions that arrived in 2020.

Also to be discovered depending on the health situation: the bird show in free flight, the areas in semi-liberty, the immersion aviaries, the animal feedingstuffs, the mini-farm and the playground.
