"The Eastern Townships, to the east of Montréal, were first settled in the years after the American Revolutionary War, when land grants were issued for displaced Loyalists. A key city in the area, though, is perhaps best known for residents that come from distances far greater than the United States: The Granby Zoo is one of the province's most famous tourist attractions, home to some 1,500 animals representing 225 species. In addition to the zoo's display of animals, there is a program of feedings and talks by docents—though some of these are in French only (all signage, however, is bilingual). Admission includes access to the slides, pools, and amusement park rides of the adjacent Amazoo water park."

"Cuteness Overload at the Granby Zoo in Quebec An hour outside Montreal , you can observe winter tigers and baby snow leopards for just a few dollars. And it's an entirely guilt-free experience because it's a green, innovative, respectful zoo. Open year-round, this zoo makes for an excellent day trip out of Montreal, especially in the winter when it's quieter. Here you can freely watch tigers gulp their lunch, giraffes and elephants have a shower, and baby snow leopards play with each other."

Granby zoo is a nice place to take the family out for some fun discovering the animals, enjoying rides at the amusement park and water park sections. If you plan on doing everything that the zoo offers it is best to go early. The time I went there, traffic just to get in the park lot was crazy. It's probably best to park at the P1 zoo or P2 zoo parking lots and then take the shuttle to the zoo, its a long wait for the main zoo parking lot, I parked on the street. Entry fee for the zoo is expensive for a family of 4 depending on the children's age can cost $200 around. As usual when you go to the zoo the animals love to be away from the sun, hiding somewhere in the shade (not at animals). Overall good experience. Didn't go to the amusement park. The water park was really packed, the water temp was fine and the kids had lots of fun. The only issue i had is the parking and the crowds. Granby zoo is excellent. Buy your tickets online so u don't have to wait in line

Very much worth the visit if you are in the area! The zoo is very well laid out and easy to navigate. The staff provided A map at the entrance in order to assist as well. Lots of animals to see and well organized under different continents. It is not cheap to go here expect to pay for the experience.

We had a great time here when visiting! The park is very clean and the employees were all polite and professional to us and others. The only issue we had was our arrival to the zoo. We thought we got there early but definitely did not. The traffic entering the park was horrendous. It took us 40 mins to get through 2 traffic lights before you could pull in to the parking lot. Obviously not the parks fault, I'm just giving a heads up to fellow goers

A bit overpriced. No one even checked our tickets. Nice zoo with a variety of animals. Monorail is fun. Gives you a break from walking and a aerial view of some of the animals. I have to say the park is pretty clean, minus some of the picnic tables because some silly people don't throw out their trash. The fries at the concession stand had been sitting for so long they were actually cold, so don't recommend getting fries.

This place is huge, and everything feels so well organized. There’s always something to see or do, and you can catch glimpses of animals from every corner of the globe. From the big, majestic ones to the quirky and unexpected, it’s the kind of place that keeps you wandering and saying “wow” at every turn. Truly impressive.

I was quite impressed by this zoo, it even had a water park, very cool. I saw animals not seen at other zoos. I really liked the exhibit with the bats and other animals that live in the dark, I felt like I was in a cave. The staff I encountered spoke both French and English and were quite helpful. Highly recommend at least visiting once even as an adult.

Loved the Granby Zoo so we visited from Ottawa twice this summer. The zoo, waterpark and Amusement park are very clean ard well maintained. Love that we have the choice of bringing our own picnic or eat in the cafeteria style restaurant. There is plenty of seating to eat throughout the zoo. Great for children and adults to visit. Buy your seasons pass in the spring for a good saving $$

This was a great zoo, has rides, and water park for all ages including lazy river. All the animals were out which was awesome considering we went when it was over 30 out. You can bring in your own cooler which is good cause the food is very expensive. Bottle water $5 which was crazy however they do have water fill ups everywhere.

Minimal English translation specially on signages, everything is on french. Some summer job kids staff know how to speak english. Moderately well maintained zoo. Accepts credit/debit but bring cash since their terminals might fail and you cant take the transaction(which happened to us, so we werent able to ride the train). Bring food! Most stalls when we visited are closed, their own cafeteria is the only opened and it is expensive for the quality and quantity and does not taste good. Their is a stroller rental if you forgot one near the entrance. There was no wait on our visit and moderate crowd as what othrrs say but for us it was alot.
