Traveler Reviews

We purchased a membership. So we can visit any time we want. Well worth the price. Plus you can get half price on a lot of other zoos and aquariums. Great zoo. Big kids area.

The membership was about the same price as 2 adults, gave us 10% off food, quick entry, and close parking. Highly recommend. Throughout the zoo are stands for food and drink, (inc alcohol), gifts shops, and games, with a carousel in the center. Something for kids and grownups??! The orangutans were the highlight of our visit as they were the most active and entertaining. We each had other favorites, from the baby rhino, Pygmy hippo, tapir, elephants, and ( possibly new?) tiger. The bird habitats were also worth seeing! I took off 1 star for the fact that there seemed to only be single animals for a number of species that are normally pack or herd animals - one painted dog, 1 zebra, 1 giraffe. (Not sure if tapir or okapi are herd animals, but there was only 1 Of each.)

This zoo was a great day out. The animals appeared well cared for & the environment was good. A really nice day & would highly recommend it. There is plenty to see & animal experiences too!

My family (pre-teen, husband and I) had a memorable day here. We checked out the prices on Groupon and it was cheaper to purchase directly from the website. This allowed us to cut the ticket booth out and skip the line. The are in the process of switching from Halloween to Christmas along with doing construction but the layout was manageable! I was impressed with the amount of aviary stations that they had including a lot of exotic birds. The safari ride in the F550 was a little cheesy but interesting. I found ample amount of enrichment activities in all of the enclosures. Don't miss the fruit bats tucked away by the children's section and of course the manatee exhibit from below. We spent at least four hours and really enjoy all of the exhibits and animals. The layout was pretty simple with the spoke design. The only drawback was the schedule. It said there would be a macaw flyover. Multiple families were waiting and it never happened. After inquiring they said it was canceled due to
