We went when it was cooler temp, mud-week and it wasn't crowded at all and the animals were all active and not hiding in their dens trying to stay cool. Very disappointed that the zoo no longer has a tram system that helps you get to different areas...that in itself might deter me from going as I get older.

I think it was Tim who shred his knowledge about the Orangatans. We met the older female, Aunt Karen, who came up and said hello to him as he said she usually does. It was very special. We didn't get any good shots of Karen but here's one of a Silverback. It's a beautiful zoo and everyone was relaxed & patient. Nice day :)

The San Diego Zoo exceeded all my expectations! From the moment we entered, the staff was welcoming and knowledgeable, and the entire experience was seamless. The zoo is beautifully maintained, with lush landscapes that make you feel like you’re in the animals’ natural habitats. The variety of animals is incredible, and it’s clear they prioritize conservation and education. I loved learning about their efforts to protect endangered species. The exhibits are thoughtfully designed, providing great viewing opportunities while ensuring the animals have plenty of space to roam. The Skyfari ride was a fun way to see the zoo from above, and the guided bus tour was both informative, entertaining and convenient for covering more ground. Overall, the San Diego Zoo is a must-visit destination that combines entertainment with education and care for wildlife. I can’t wait to visit again!

I thought the smaller vehicle tours were included with the purchase of the park ticket. Assuming the price for the tour would be a long wait time. I guess I'm just comparing this park to something like Universal Studios where Harry Potter is included with the purchase of a ticket. Anyway I'm glad my wife and I were able to contribute to the park.

I was glad to get my ticket in advance thru Headout online. I only wished that I knew multi visits to the San Diego Zoo & Safari Park could have been combined so I would have gotten a lower overall cost. But the parks were great!

Your experience

Take a trip into the wilderness and explore the animal kingdom in its entirety with this cost-saver of a combo tour to San Diego's Zoo and Zoo Safari Park.

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.
