As a zoo touring enthusiast, you may be interested in learning about the London Zoo tax credits, which provide reduced-price tickets for those currently receiving certain types of benefits. This guide will provide you with all the necessary details, facts, figures, and data points to help you plan your visit to the London Zoo.
Eligibility and Booking for London Zoo Tax Credits
To be eligible for reduced-price tickets at the London Zoo, you must be currently receiving Universal Credit, Working Tax Credit, Child Tax Credit, Employment and Support Allowance, Income Support, or Jobseeker’s Allowance.

Remember to have your proof of eligibility ready, as you will need to show this when you present your ticket(s) to the admissions gate.
