Review of Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium

I was weary because it was almost $75 for 4 people. After over 4 hours, 4 miles walked, and 10000+ steps I am happy to say it is definitely worth the price. Be prepared to walk, A LOT. The enclosures are up close and personal. Animals were very active. Food needs to be ordered ahead of time which we passed up on. Sorry, but $37 for a pizza is too much, even for zoo pricing. Souvenir cups are available to purchase for $5 and are cute. Otherwise you pay $4 for a medium sized soda with no lid or straw.
We are from NY and were in Pa for the weekend. Definitely was a nice side trip for us.
