The Phoenix Zoo is a fun place…even for adults. There are a lot of exhibits to see, and the walking trail is well laid out and easy to navigate. There is still some ongoing construction, but it didn’t take away from our fun and excitement.
When Zoo Lights returns, I highly recommend you go. Beautiful light shows and it’s different seeing the zoo after dark.

Plan at least 4+ hours if you want to see all the animals. It is a huge zoo, both in size and in the variety of animals on exhibit. The Arizona landscape in the savanna area adds a wonderful element of authenticity and ambience that other zoos don't have. There are lakes, little islands for monkeys to call home without netting, and so much to see. This is a wonderland for children as well. Lots to do to keep them entertained all day.
It's definitely worth the $40/person for adult admission. And if you live in the area, the membership is well worth the investment as well.
Highly recommended.

This is a great zoo. My kids had an awesome time. They have a lot of exhibits and also places to eat and playgrounds. My kids loved the petting zoo the most. The flamingos and orangutan were also pretty popular. They have a big beautiful lake with islands that different animals hang out on, and it has a beautiful mountain backdrop. We were really glad we got membership passes.
Very nice zoo with lots to see. Well kept and clean with beautiful animals. Loved seeing the roadrunners and flamingos close up, as well as, the monkey exhibit. Be prepared to walk as there are a few miles of paved trails throughout. They were working on opening a new exhibit when we visited.
Had so much fun here! Came to the zoo on a mother/daughter trip and it did not disappoint! Definitely got my steps in here! They had so many cool animals and displays. Don’t forget to ride the camel! Also they have tons of refreshment options and a great gift shop. I really enjoyed it!
I loved this zoo. Animals are given a good care. There are plenty of customer friendly services. Took me three hours to walk the whole zoo and see all animals. There are camel rides there. Parking lot is very large. Was easy to find free lots
This zoo was a lot of fun to go to! We got there right at 9am and was able to finish by noon (that’s without stopping frequently for food and drink and doing activities)
Walking around is not bad here. For the most part, it’s pretty flat and not super hilly. Lots of cool and unique animals to see
Staff was super helpful and informative and looked like they actually enjoy their jobs caring for the animals and teaching
Definitely recommend stopping by when you have the chance
