Buying guide
Not sure which ticket to choose?
Use the official €13 row as the baseline. The current Tiqets and GetYourGuide standard rows also show €13, while seller-specific fees, availability and cancellation terms should be checked at checkout. The other GetYourGuide rows are different guided or bundle products, so compare their inclusions rather than treating them as like-for-like Ménagerie admission.

Insider tips
Good to know before your visit
Entrance
The official access points listed for the Ménagerie are 57 Rue Cuvier and Place Valhubert, 75005 Paris. Follow on-site signs for the Ménagerie after arriving at either entrance. Security checks still apply, and wheelchair loans may be available subject to availability.
Price
The current visible Ménagerie offer rows from the Official site, Tiqets and GetYourGuide each show €13. Compare the final checkout total, selected date, ticket title, inclusions and cancellation terms before paying.
Discounts
The official MNHN page lists a €10 reduced rate for visitors aged 3–25 with proof of eligibility and for Pass Éducation holders. Check the official ticketing terms for any other free-entry categories, booking-channel limits and required proof before relying on a reduced or free ticket.
Timing
Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does a "skip-the-line" ticket bypass the security queue?
No. While these tickets allow you to bypass the physical ticket office window, all visitors must still undergo mandatory security checks. Under the 2026 Vigipirate 'Urgence Attentat' posture, expect visual bag inspections at the entrance which may cause short delays during peak hours.
Can I get a refund if I cannot make my scheduled visit?
Official tickets are generally non-refundable and non-exchangeable. If you require flexibility, booking through partners like Tiqets or GetYourGuide is recommended, as they typically offer a 24-hour cancellation window for a full refund.
Do children and students qualify for free entry?
Children under 3 and disabled visitors (with one companion) enter for free with valid ID. Visitors aged 3–25 qualify for a reduced rate (approx. €10) regardless of residency; these reduced tickets are available online or at the onsite kiosks with proof of age.
Are mobile tickets accepted, or do I need to print them?
Digital tickets on smartphones are fully accepted at the Ménagerie. Ensure your phone's brightness is turned up and the QR code is ready for scanning at the turnstiles located inside the Jardin des Plantes.
Is there a place to store my luggage or large backpack?
No, there are no lockers or cloakrooms available at the Ménagerie. Due to national security regulations, large suitcases and bulky bags (exceeding 55x35x20cm) are strictly prohibited and will be denied entry at the security checkpoint.
Are the "Meet the Keepers" sessions included in the ticket price?
Yes, these educational talks (e.g., for red pandas at 16:15 or orangutans at 14:45) are included with your standard admission. They typically take place on Wednesdays, weekends, and daily during French school holidays, though they are usually conducted in French.
What is the best entrance to use for the zoo?
The Ménagerie is located inside the Jardin des Plantes. The most direct access is via the entrance at 57 Rue Cuvier or the gate at 2 Place Valhubert. Once inside the gardens, follow the signs for 'La Ménagerie' to reach the zoo's specific ticket-scanning point.
Why is the price on partner sites sometimes higher than the official rate?
Partner platforms like Tiqets or GetYourGuide may include a small service fee. In exchange, they provide benefits not always available on the official site, such as instant mobile confirmation, 24/7 customer support, and the ability to cancel your booking up to 24 hours in advance.
