Global travellers place Pairi Daiza in Tripadvisor’s Top 10% Worldwide

Pairi Daiza has just received the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award 2025, an international recognition granted by the world’s largest travel platform. This award is directly based on the reviews and experiences shared by millions of visitors over the past year.

A distinction awarded through visitor reviews

This accolade honors attractions, hotels, and restaurants that consistently offer their visitors an exceptional experience. In concrete terms, it places Pairi Daiza among the top 10% of highest-rated destinations worldwide on Tripadvisor.

“Receiving such a distinction moves us. It shows that those who walk through the gates of Pairi Daiza find a beauty that speaks to them. Here, animals, trees, gardens, precious minerals and human creations meet to remind us of the richness of the world. If our garden inspires wonder, love and a desire to protect, then our mission is accomplished.” Eric Domb, President and Founder of Pairi Daiza.

International Recognition in Service of Conservation

This most recent award adds to the long list of accolades the Park has received over the past three decades:

  • In March 2025, Pairi Daiza was awarded, for the tenth consecutive time, the highest distinction of the French Michelin Green Guide – 3 stars, meaning “worth the journey.”
  • In January 2025, a Dutch jury recognized Pairi Daiza as one of the Most Innovative Holiday Parks in the Benelux.
  • Since 2023, the Park has been elected Best Zoo in Europe by the international jury of Parkscout.de.
  • Pairi Daiza has also won this same title three times at the Diamond ThemePark Awards.

    These distinctions, awarded by both industry experts and the general public, highlight the Park’s ability to continuously reinvent itself, to innovate, and to maintain a level of excellence – always with a strong focus on animal welfare and the visitor experience.

Biodiversity at the Heart of Our Mission

Each award strengthens the ambition of our teams to continue pursuing one clear goal: protecting biodiversity and raising awareness of the importance of all living things. In 2024, the Pairi Daiza Foundation invested more than 2 million euros in projects dedicated to the preservation of animals and ecosystems, both in Belgium and worldwide.

Powered by the Dedication of 700 Employees

Behind each distinction are nearly 700 employees: animal caretakers, veterinarians, gardeners, architects, engineers, security staff, reception teams, hotel and restaurant staff, maintenance and cleaning crews, energy and waste managers, shop staff, and administrative services. All of them contribute every day to the excellence and magic of Pairi Daiza.
