Spacious. Lots of rides. Lots to do! Feed a Giraffe. Feed a Stingray. Ride a carousel then watch the Penguins get fed. Take a train ride then head to the playground. We spend on average 6 hours here and still dont want to leave. The animals are always awake and so easy to view. The staff is super friendly and interact with the kids.
This is an awesome zoo. It blows the Phoenix Zoo out of the water. The animals are so much easier to access, and the new aquarium is great. There are 3 different aquarium building to explore, and a water/log ride that travels right though one of the buildings. There are a couple different places to eat, but the aquarium restaurant with the shark tank is nice. A bit pricy for a lunch/zoo atmosphere, but might be a neat date idea. All around a great time for kids & families.
This zoo is pricey for a family but has a more up close experience than typical zoos. The enclosures are more accesible fence like enclosures...This is as close up to as a tiger as we have ever been. The zoo also has a feeding platform from wich you can purchase and feed the Giraffes so bring lots of quarters as this is such a cool experience! The aquarium is nothing to write about but having been to aquariums across the counrty perhaps we have bee spoiled. There is a nice restorant in the aquarium. This zoo does not have paved walkways so it is very dry and dusty.They have fun activities for the kids like a train ride, flume, and merry go round which cost extra. The aquarium has reduced admission in evening hours.
