Phu Quoc Vinpearl Safari & Zoo 
The Phú Quốc Safari has to be the best zoo I have ever had the chance to visit! I’ve been to many wildlife parks all over the world but this one blew me away. Excellent for kids or adults to spend a full day here in Phú Quốc Vietnam . You can dine with giraffes at the Phú Quốc Zoo. The Vinpearl Safari is the largest zoo in Vietnam. This 380 acres wildlife park is home to more than 3000 animals in over 150 different species. Some I have never seen before. The park consists of 2 parts, an open zoo and a Safari Park. They also have a kid zoo where it is safe to let your kids pet some goats. Apparently it’s completely safe and they won’t bite you. I asked to make sure. They have some little baby cubs here as well.
