This zoo has a lot of potential, that they are certainly starting to capitalize on. The older part…read moreof the zoo definitely shows its age, but walk around a corner and wow! The multi-species enclosures are really amazing. The orangutans were out and playing and eating while we were there. The baby was having a good time and super fun to see. The free ranging peacocks were beautiful. Lots to see in a compact park. Don't miss the penguins! The park was clean and remodeling all at once. The expansion will be spectacular once done. The price is about normal, about $20/adult. The gift shop is about what you would expect. I'm glad we went. Parking was easy. Nice zoo, construction takes a little away from the experience.

We've been coming here for years and it's a nice outing each time, The park has seen some upgrades…read morewith some currently in progress, which is nice to see. The animals appear healthy and well taken care of. There's a brand new elephant viewing area and even an indoor penguin exhibit. If I had any complaints, it would be the main cafe in the middle of the park. It's not as clean as it could be and the cost is quite high for simple meal items. There is a shaded grass area though, so just pack your own food to save some money. Speaking of saving money, get on the bio park website and grab the yearly pass. Then you can visit as often as you want for a year. The pass also covers the Botanical gardens and aquarium to boot. The zoo itself does get a bit tight during busy times. We made the mistake of coming during spring break and it's way too many people. You feel like you're getting herded along since there are people waiting to get the best spot to look at animals, and with all the strollers around... Yeah, if you can manage it, go when the kiddos are in school. All in all, it's still a nice outing. Definitely worth visiting.
