Discover Parrot World
Dive into the heart of the Amazon and Patagonia at Parrot World, an animal park near Paris.
A committed animal park
Combining animal welfare and a refuge for abandoned parrots, visiting Parrot World means choosing a family outing near Paris that has meaning, while enjoying an exceptional immersive experience. It is also an excellent choice for an educational outing with children in Île-de-France, and a popular stop for school trips to Paris.
Welfare
Parrot World is a modern animal park that places animal welfare at the heart of its priorities. Every space is designed to provide the animals with suitable conditions: natural features, large environments, enrichment and quiet zones.
Refuge
The park also plays an essential role as a refuge for abandoned parrots. Parrots are often purchased without their owners fully understanding their longevity and social needs. Unfortunately, many birds are abandoned after a few years.
Awareness
Parrot World takes in some of these parrots and raises public awareness about this issue. This mission is important because it shows that the park is not limited to a leisure activity: it is part of a responsible and committed approach.
Éric Vignot, Founding President of Parrot World
What I want is to give welfare to the animals and dreams to the visitors
Parrot World was born from an ambition: to offer an immersive animal park near Paris, capable of bringing together wonder, education and respect for living things. This vision is carried by Éric Vignot, founder of the project, with the aim of creating a park different from a traditional zoo.
This approach explains why Parrot World is today considered one of the best nature outing ideas near Paris, for families and animal enthusiasts alike!
