LA Zoo

“Had an amazing time with my babies we spent the day just walking slowly sitting enjoying some shade there's lots of shade! Big beautiful trees a picnic area in front and 1 in very back you can take food in water or buy it there it wasn't very expensive except for the vending machines $5 for a can but it's nice that you can take in your own Waters or mini ice chest parking was easy not a lot of walking to the car there's a lot of vendors out front with different things I recommend you getting the sunscreen in the front for $10 if you happen to forget it because inside the park it is about $13 for the same size parking is free scooter rentals are $40 wheelchair is 15 but they are available the only thing is it's open from 10:00 to 5:00 so not long hours at all what we missed was the petting zoo didn't notice it but when you first walk in if you go to the right you will run right into it we went to the left so by the time we were done they have to put the animals away about 4:00 it takes about 3 hours to see the whole park not very big not a lot of the animals were out most of the animals were not out a lot of the exhibits were closed but I did notice that the the three shows they had started at the same time a different areas of the park and they were all about 12:00 and there was only one showing the animals we did see where the flamingos The Monkees the zebras play The mountain goats elephants giraffes 1 seal the fish and the reptiles everything was either not in its place or closed for construction but it was nice we got out just to spend the day outside will I go again probably not but to visit California and spend time with the kids a special day”

“After being to the San Diego Zoo I had low expectations for this zoo but I was pleasantly surprised. There's a large variety of animals and they all seemed to be in nice enclosures. It's not very flat so I would recommend good walking shoes. Overall, it was a fun adventure and it's a great activity for the family. We would definitely go back if we're in the area again.”

“Sanctuary in the middle of Los Angeles. Beautiful California winter weather to walk among wild animals. Pros: price, free parking, giraffes, trees Cons: many empty exhibits, bathroom cleanliness, food options”

“A small and compact one. They're putting away big animals at 4 pm and closing at 5 pm immediately during the summer. Still a fun place to go for the little kids I guess. But not in the summer!”
