Perfect sunny afternoon walk through the zoo. Most of the animals were enjoying the afternoon as well. Koalas sleeping as usual.

Zoo was amazing, exhibits were well maintained, the food was amazing, and the tour was amazing. This is the first zoo without the generic petting zoo which I enjoyed farm animals at a zoo is so outdated. Food was also really enjoyable

Came for plant days. Liked the orchids, carnivorous plants. Wish I could have gone on the bus tour. Always love both annals and plants, taking photos of them.

The zoo was fabulous! The plants, trees, and flowers were amazing in themselves. The animals were lively and easy to see. The bus tour was fun and educational. Our guide Alex made the experience very enjoyable. Everything was very clean and beautifully decorated. We will definitely be visiting again!

The World Famous San Diego Zoo. We heard about this place our whole live and finally made it. It’s large, but the Guided Bus Tour, Skyfari, and Kangaroo buses make it doable. They also have an elevator, I wasn’t expecting it to be so hilly. There are dining spots just about at every turn. I also wasn’t expecting it to be so full of vegetation, it is so lush, one part of it is actually a rain forest - in the desert in San Diego. The trails are laid out wonderfully, such great viewing of the wildlife is available, what great planning. Our highlights were the polar bears, elephants, leopard, hippos and orangutans. The gift shops in the front, right by the exits of course, are world class as well. Definitely worth stopping and shopping in there. Parking was easy and free.

We took our 2 year old son there for his first time. He enjoyed every single bit of it. He was so happy to see all different animals. His reaction on seeing the elephants were priceless. Thank you San Diego zoo for everything you do to help the animals.
