Visited during December and had a blast! To be fair, I had low to zero expectations. Why? Because it's winter, cold outside and because I hadn't ever heard of Maryland's zoo. Baltimore in known for its mega aquarium, but not for it's zoo.

Regardless, since it's winter, it's cheaper to go and my significant other and I wanted to take the niece and nephew out to see some animals (they are at that stage were they love all animals and go crazy for them).

Parking was easy, getting in was a breeze and finding out way to a trolley in order to go to the zoo area was easy-peasy.

After a short 3-minute ride on the trolley, we made our way in and immediately saw the penguins!! Too cute! Afterwards, we went to the African exhibit in which you could see the classic "Big Five"! To my surprise, we were able to see all the animals. Even the giraffes who were indoors! After that, we went to the Polar/Arctic exhibit and saw everything but the polar bear, which was hibernating.

All animals looked well kept and fed. They all had big areas to roam about and did not seem aggressive or ill.

All in all, pretty decent zoo with friendly and eager-to-talk staff that were ready to give us interesting details on each animal. Would highly recommend it!
