There were many highlights of my trip to San Diego Zoo and the overall experience was way better than I could have expected. To begin with the ticket process was incredibly simple through the Headout app, however, I think providing the tickets through an email would also be ideal. I went to the San Diego Zoo at around 5pm after the sun had set and it was getting dark and because of that it made my experience unique. Getting to see the animals in their habitat as they slept felt like something I wouldn't have been able to see otherwise.

I really enjoyed visiting the zoo. I'm originally from Dallas but I came down to visit family. One of the major things on our bucket list was the San Diego zoo. When we arrived, it did not disappoint. Admission was very quick and easy. The employees were extremely helpful with directions. The stores are kept nice and clean. My favorite part was the bus tour. I got the upper level and had an amazing view. Adding on, the captain of the bus was great at explaining each animal along with some cool facts.

As we bought the tickets we did not have to wait in line at the ticket window and we went straight through, it was a very nice experience to see different marine and terrestrial animals, that day there were many people but we were able to go through all the places and see the animals that caught our attention.

    This was my second visit to the San Diego Zoo. My first visit was many years ago, so my memory was not very clear, but this time I visited with my two young children (one almost 3 years old and the other 17 months), and the experience truly impressed me. The environment of the zoo is wonderful. The vegetation is extremely rich, the pathways are very well designed and easy to follow, and the staff members were warm, friendly, and genuinely attentive. It felt very welcoming for families with small children. We originally planned to see the giant pandas, but the line was very long, so we decided not to wait. However, we noticed bamboo planted in many areas throughout the zoo, which made it feel like the zoo is thoughtfully preparing and caring for the pandas’ habitat and food supply. That attention to detail really stood out to me. I have visited other zoos before, where the smell could sometimes be quite strong, but the San Diego Zoo was surprisingly fresh and pleasant. It had rained before our visit, and with so much greenery around, the air felt clean and refreshing. Most importantly, my children absolutely loved it. They were excited, curious, and happy the entire time. It was a joyful and memorable experience for our family, and we truly appreciated how well-maintained and family-friendly the zoo is. We had a wonderful day and would definitely love to come back again. Highly recommended!

    It was a very easy check in at the San Diego zoo using the head out app, no issues with pulling up tickets and love the no service feature in cases where signals are weak. Overall a good experience and will definitely use the head out app again for my next trip!

    The Safari Park was an incredible experience and made so easy with Headout! It was a breeze getting our tickets the day before we wanted to go and it couldn't have been easier. My partner and I had a memorable day that we will treasure forever! Thanks Headout!

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.

Don't miss out on a stunning 65-foot manmade waterfall, Rady Falls.
