Unfortunately this trip has had to be the Most disappointing one in the 7 years we as a family make this trip. The exhibits were dirty. The animals were uncomfortable and hiding due to some VERY LOUD construction. I couldn't understand why they're were doing construction during busy season. Disappointed. This is normally a wonderful and magical family trip we make annually. We may have to find a new trip next summer.
Its mostly shaded. not super long to walk. nice 3-4hour visit to get through the whole thing. highly recommend.
What a great zoo! We loved every minute of it! The lego creations and amazing exhibits - our kids loved it, and we’ll be back.
We had an amazing time at the zoo. The zoo was clean including bathrooms. The food we had at one of the restaurants was really good and fresh. We also liked all the convenient hand washing stations throughout the zoo. There was a nice selection of animals to see, prefect enough where it wasn’t too little and also not overwhelming. Our whole family really enjoyed our visit.
So fun! My first time there and was so impressed!
New landscape is beautiful!!
Never disappointed with this zoo! Wish we lived closer We would come once a week.
