Zoo Miami

Family and i went on a hot and humid Monday afternoon. We went coincidentally on $15 Monday deal day. But their online system was down so it was a small hassle getting into the park even with pre-bought tickets. Thankfully sister had the email confirmation to show we did buy tickets. Sadly a lot of the animals were being held off-site for construction/weather. Big shout-out to the Molly and Holly that taught us about the 7 banded armadillo, and Jenai who was stationed at the goat petting section. Very smart, and educational and professional. I recommend bringing your own water jug because buying anything in-zoo is expensive but they have free water re-fill stations. Bring some good walking shoes because you're going to need them.

The Miami Zoo was an amazing experience! There’s so much to see and the zoo itself is pretty big, so plan for a lot of walking. If you’re not a fan of walking, I’d highly recommend renting a bike or one of the animal scooters — it makes exploring way more fun and easier. Going early in the morning is the best time to beat the heat and enjoy the animals when they’re most active. Definitely worth the price — a great day for families, couples, or anyone who loves wildlife!

This was the best zoo we've ever been to! We were able to see a plethora of different animals, many of which are endangered or critically endangered. They had lots of cool shows and presentations with the zookeepers and animals and also offer many other amenities. I definitely recommend renting the safari cycle, there is a lot of ground to cover, especially on a hot day it makes for a better experience. We loved the photo option upon entry and the misting stations 😂 it was very hot but it is August so that's to be expected. The food was delicious. The zoo and animals are very well maintained and cared for. All around an amazing experience! 20/10 would recommend!

It is a very nice zoo! It is HUGE! It was extremely hot and humid and not a lot of people so that was nice! Unfortunately a lot of the exhibits were “under construction” but we still had a great time! We walked the entire zoo! You may want to rent one of their bikes! They had water misters all through the zoo and it felt good to cool off! Food was better than most zoos!

I feel like the animal attractions are always closed and a lot of empty habitats… price was fair and bikes were super fun so were the swan paddle boats. Seems every time we go animal feeding specifically giraffes is closed so it’s a bummer to nerve be able to do it but other than that it was fun

My daughter and I had our first visit recently and were really impressed. We went on Friday (Sept. 5), it was forcing to rain, and there was barely anyone there. We saw just about every animal and even discovered some we have never heard of! We got to get up close and personal with a magestic owl and learn all about him, and feed the parrots while one rode around on my daughter's head. The animals were great, and the staff was notably fantastic. I wanted to take a moment to compliment the young man working at the oasis. Be was so helpful, courteous and committed to his job. He even helped scare some birds off when they crowded around. It was nice to see the youth working hard.

Humongous zoo! So well taken care of, wide paths for everyone to walk or ride, beautiful games for kids along the way, in between the animals, like a maze or water games. They also have an option to refresh yourself (a little mist) which was very welcoming. Just download the app before you go so you can plan your day, and plan your food needs as they are quite far apart. You can do everything on the app, it’s a really user friendly app.

Zoo Miami is an amazing place to spend the day with family! The park is clean, well-organized, and full of beautiful animals from all over the world. One of the highlights for us was the pedal boats—a fun and relaxing way to enjoy the scenery and take a little break from walking. Staff was friendly, everything felt safe, and it made the visit extra special. Highly recommend Zoo Miami, especially the pedal boat experience!
