Taking your group to Burgers' Zoo in Arnhem

Burgers' Zoo in Arnhem is known for its large indoor habitats, such as a tropical rainforest, a desert and an underwater world with a coral reef. Outdoors, you will find elephants, giraffes and rhinos, among others. It is a classic destination for school trips, family days and club outings.

With one coach for the whole group, everyone leaves together, nobody has to drive or find a parking space, and the group travels home relaxed at the end of the day. We collect you from an agreed pick-up point and drop you off at the entrance.

From the north to the Veluwezoom

Burgers' Zoo lies on the northern side of Arnhem, right up against the woods of the Veluwe. From Bolsward, that is around 120 kilometres as the crow flies, and a little further by road.

For groups from Friesland, Groningen, Drenthe and Overijssel, it is an easy day trip to plan: leave in the morning, enjoy a full day at the zoo and be home again early in the evening.

Indoors and outdoors, whatever the weather

A large part of Burgers' Zoo is under cover: the rainforest, the desert and the underwater world stay dry and warm. That makes the zoo a safe choice if you fix the date for a school trip or club outing well in advance, before you know what the weather will do.

School trip to Burgers' Zoo

For primary schools, Burgers' Zoo is an educational and exciting day out, from the youngest classes to the final year. With a double-decker, several classes travel together in one coach, supervisors included.

Family day, club or staff outing

Burgers' Zoo is also a good choice for a family day, a senior group or a staff outing with children: everyone explores at their own pace and at the end of the day the group meets up again at the coach. Let us know when you enquire if some travellers are less steady on their feet, and we will take that into account.

How the day works

The coach collects the group, and there is time for a short break on the way. The driver drops you off at the entrance and takes his mandatory rest nearby during the day. At the agreed time, the coach is ready again. We can also book the entrance tickets for you if you wish; an administration fee may apply. You can also buy them yourself, for example as a group ticket from the zoo.

The right coach for your group

Our fleet ranges from a compact coach for 30 people and coaches for 55, 63 and 66 people to double-deckers for 90. For larger groups, we use several coaches that leave and arrive together. See also how many people fit in a coach.
