The zoo is surely the ultimate family trip. Even the most troublesome children can be seduced into behaving well when the chance to see tigers, polar bears and crocodiles presents itself; and let's face it, it's not just kids who love wildlife. Riga Zoo offers plenty of diversions for animal lovers and, as well as the aforementioned 'biggies', excellent collections of insects, birds, amphibians and grazing animals can be seen and admired. Amongst the latter is included the extremely rare Tibetan wild donkey. No doubt Dad will be over the moon at the chance to see real Asian ass - for much less than he usually pays on the internet.
