Our mommy daughter date couldn't have been better. We purchased tickets the morning of. We drive down to spend the day at the San Diego Zoo. The entry into the park was so easy as I had already downloaded the app headout as I was told once my tickets were purchased. Once we parked and got to the gate all I had to do was pull up my QR code given to me through the app for my tickets. The guy at the gate scanned us and we went right in. No lines. Nothing. It was great cause we went on a holiday weekend and the lines to get in were very long. We didn't even wait! Will definitely use this app again for the ease and convenience. We had a great day!

The San Diego Zoo lived up to its status as worlds best in class. From the outstanding and most helpful service of the staff to the care and interaction with the animals, our experience was exceptional. We are 78 and 76 years of age and needed handicap services. The Zoo did a great job of assisting in our needs. If you are planning on going to San Diego, take the time to visit their zoo.

I visited the San Diego Zoo and I absolutely loved the experience. Everything is very well organized and impressively clean, which makes walking through it really enjoyable. My favorite animals were the crocodile, the rhinoceros, and the elephant because I could observe them up close in very well-maintained habitats. It’s definitely a place worth visiting.

    Amazing staff, Animals and park! Highly recommended!! Go early when the park opens so you have it to yourself it feels like, then double back in where you'd like to revisit.

    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.
