The Safari Park is different from other zoos. The animals live in habitats far larger and better suited to them. They seem relaxed and content, not stressed out like most animals in noisy, crowded zoos. We enjoyed observing the giraffes, rhinos and lions from a safe and respectful distance. The tram ride is relaxing and educational. Would love to do it again.

Best zoo ever! There's something for everyone here. Take the bus tour first then decide your must-see exhibits. We loved the aerial views from the skylight cups. The displays have treats near the viewing area so all the creatures who were comfortable with the temperature were close enough for good pictures and observation.

A beautiful day with lots of happy children. A very happy experience and its obvious the zoo staff care for both their animals and visitors. My wife and I were there for over 6 hours. A great experience to be enjoyed by family and friends. A big plus from us......

    Extremely expensive. More stores, gift shops, food shops than animals. Purchased the Safari tour and was charged over $80/ticket. I asked why the extra charge over the $60 that was advertised, and was told that $60 was the starting price, but no explanation for the upcharge. Never again.

    To begin the day was nice and Gloomy with enough sunshine to keep you smiling throughout the day. Parking was perfect, lots of area and great guidelines towards the entrance. I didn't even have to wait in line, not that there was one, but I had digital tickets with much "quicker" access to enter. Once we walked in it was on. It was a true Kingdom of exhibits to explore, each path, incline/declined for a great hike through what felt like a jungle! The staff all around was more than informable about each and every exhibit we went to, and we just about covered it all. While we sat and enjoyed our lunch near the giraffe, I could assure you I was terribly out of energy after and was ready for bed. Luckily, there's so much greenery and fresh relieving habitats for the animals that we ourselves are, though the refreshment was rejuvenating, it brought me back to reality to wrap our day up and head on back home! With core memories to experience and a having our photo taken on our way out, we most definitely had a great experience. The last time I was there was 3rd grade, and I personally love to hike, just don't forget about the Skyfari And bus tours they have., it is an open experience once you enter the park! Loved it! Thank you to the couple that took out photo with the polar bear! I couldn't thank you enough for the whole some moment

    Zoo many things to see!

    The San Diego Zoo is all about enjoying an immersive experience from one enclosure to the next. Start your day with a guided bus tour, and get introduced to 4,500 rare and endangered animals. Stroll through the winding paths of the lush botanical garden, home to koalas, Galápagos tortoises, tigers, elephants, flamingos, and great apes. If you're visiting on the day of a show, you must try and catch it as it is a treat to watch animals synchronize and show their skills.

    The tour continues into the world of the Arctic at the Conrad Preby Polar Bear Plunge. Ever measured yourself against a polar bear or crawled into a bear den? Here, you can do both and even climb aboard an Arctic research helicopter for an unforgettable experience. Move to the Harry and Grace Steele Elephant Odyssey, a unique 7.5-acre habitat designed to mirror the elephants' natural environment. Don't miss out on a stunning 65-foot manmade waterfall, Rady Falls.
