Announced on June 7, 2026, by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, the app is intended to ease access to zoo facilities and encourage the broader use of digital tools in public spaces. The new tools blend mobile-based guidance with self-service ticketing services. Together, they intend to make visits easier to plan and manage while supporting the park’s broader efforts to modernise services and strengthen public engagement.

The NZP Saathi application is available on both Android and iOS platforms and can be used as a digital guide for visitors to the zoo. The app includes an engaging map and smart navigation features that help users locate animal enclosures, restrooms, buggy points, exits and other amenities within the park.

The best part? Tourists can also opt for themed routes through the park. These include options such as an Express Tour, Family Tour, Grand Zoo Tour and a personalised “My Tour”, permitting users to plan their visit specifically by time, interests or group size.
