Interesting zoo to learn from. Because Nashville has warmer weather than Chicago and the north, you get more warm days to enjoy the zoo.

The food places tasted good and just about all of the exhibits were open in mid-November which is winter season.

The zoo offers good angles for photos and movies.

Great zoo. Worth the membership. It takes hours to go through the place, and every time we go, we seem to find something new even though we've been several times. There's a petting zoo for the kids, a play area, and you can go into the kangaroo enclosure and pet them, which is so awesome! The zoo is big, beautiful, and the enclosures are so well kept, the animals look healthy and happy. It is a great, family place to go waste a day away at. I highly recommend it. It is definitely one of the things that will be missed now that we have moves from Tennessee.

Great zoo, took about 3 hours to walk through. They take good care of their animals. The zoo is well maintained. The men's restroom at the entrance has a snake enclosure in it (rumor has it), the women's restroom by the bear exhibit had a nice exhibit (I don't recall the name of the animal). We visited right before Halloween, they have boo at the zoo. They had been setting up for the illumination since June which runs from November - February

It's a really nice zoo. We thought it would be smaller, but it actually took almost 3 hours to walk.. The enclosures for the animals are beautiful. And the park is very peaceful with nice paved walking trails. Very accessible for those in wheelchairs or for strollers. The food was good and the service was quick. We had a wonderful day seeing all the animals. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. At the end of our day, we used our day passes towards an annual membership, looking forward to going back. You must have a reservation to get into the zoo at the moment, and I would recommend coming early close parking spaces fill up quickly.

This is a very nice zoo. It was well laid out. Everything was convenient and clean. It was not overcrowded, and there were plenty of exhibits. The margaritas were quite tasty also. The price was fair and buying online was convenient and allowed us to avoid the love at the ticket booth.

There aren't any adjectives I know that can properly describe the wonders here.
The animals are obviously well cared for and cared about. They're truly magnificent. Beautifully displayed in large enclosures.
I listened to several fascinating lectures in front of different exhibits. Very cool.
There are clever snack and drink stands throughout the park. Including adult beverages.
We had an amazing time! Actually, it's the best park I've ever seen. I have seen many in my 66 years.
I am truly grateful for the visit and the day I'll never forget.

Perfect as always. This is the best treasure in Nashville if you ask me. We had a blast. Absolutely love the exhibits even though I was sad that the top floor of the aviary was closed. That's my favorite part. Well, the tigers are my favorite part. No, maybe the flamingos. Yes the flamingos are my ultimate favorite part. I think I need to get a membership so I can go all the time again. Absolutely love this place and if you have not been you really need to go. They have spent so much time making it an absolutely beautiful walk through. The animals seem happy and content. The keepers are very friendly and informative with the kangaroos and birds. Highly recommend for families, couple dates, kid excursions, and senior outings.
