Greater Los Angeles Zoo Association Reviews

A good place to catch the shuttle bus to Hollywood Bowl. Barely any cars were parked there.

Lovely. Easy trails and a measure of quiet, even when it's busy. Well worth the drive.
Serenity in the metropolis.

Nice large zoo, a bit smelly, but it was almost 100deg. Recommended stop for families. Beware, lots and lots of walking, and hills too!!!!

I Love it, staff are helpful, bathrooms are clean. The Animals look happy and healthy and Love the works . I got see them giving Kisses to the zoo works. How beautiful

The lights are overrated. They are just things hanging from trees. The zoo itself is OK. The gift shop is pretty fun.

The LA Zoo has come a long ways over the past two decades but still has far to go. Some exhibits are amazing (most of the ape exhibits are first rate) where as some seem cruel and outdated (especially the Lion Exhibit). It is not the San Diego Zoo but it is local so....

It was great looked like a forest and the animals are well token care of it s a great place for kids and adults or disabled people their many new things to learn about

The L.A zoo is one of the best and it's so clean and people treat you so good there

The zoo was worth visiting but there were a lot of exhibits being redone and the zoo map was somewhat hard to follow

It was nice trip.but couldn't see some animals becouse they were hiding

We have a membership, so we go often. Love this place!

Have been a member since I had my son. Parking is good. A few restaurants and snack shops. Maybe not the best place to visit during summer because socal gets way hot for the animals to be active.

Disappointing. Half the animals weren't around. Where did they go? Africa?

I love visiting the Zoo with the family. We had lots of fun!!

Big zoo, pedestrian heavy. Nice entrance when you walk in, feels like an amusement park. They could use a few more animal exhibits overall, especially since some animals aren't always made public, e.g. the elephants. An annual pass for a family is like $160 or less, worth it if you're local and not busy in non-winter months.

Like the fact that it is a zoo with very few cages! The animals have room
For some reasons a lot of animals were not prrsent last friday, should have been notified better to everyone

Very nice experience .. great place to bring the kids

August 2019 well although it does not compare with that of Mexico there are almost no animals that are there just look very expensive all in a simple water $ 5 But there are many water troughs and many bathrooms and very clean and see that they let in with backpacks with water and even cakes .. they charge $ 21 adults $ 18.50 children, parking is free and the other half is more $ 10 preferable not to pay because the entrance is not far away

Although I did not go I think it is en grossi n g olace

Went to see zoo lights. Bonus got to see some raindeer and some swans.

This a great place to take your children and spend a decent time with family. We hadn t seen the park in over 10 years and we all loved the new look! We really enjoyed the entire park.

The year membership is worth it! Accessible bathrooms everywhere, signs to orientate you if you happen to get lost.

Great place!

The only down side was that certain crowds of people were not suitable for children to see.

The very nice place and the very friendly staff, the only thing that I think is missing more open food stores, we arrived hungry and thirsty and we had to walk until we found another one that was open.

Lots of animals Great place to spend a day in LA. Great place to stay fit and work on your legs by walking.

Just renewed my membership for PokeWeek. Can't wait to get back.

Best Zoo i have been too so far. Parking is free, major plus, staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Lots of amazing animals. Overall Great Family Experience!

I know it's hot, but not a lot of animals outside.
Food and drink a little pricey grandbaby had a great time

Fun place but to many bees ... hint bee repellent peppermint extract dish soap and water enjoy your day

Good place to spend time with family. It's alot of walking, take tennis shoes !!

There needs to be more shaded areas, but overall a great place to go for the day.

Well we enjoy parents and our children and in addition to enjoying it is the best place for stress hahahahaha with nature the animals is very beautiful to go with the children

I expected way more for this place considering the fact that it is in L.A. Best part of my visit was watching the seals getting fed. Parking was free.

Very nice, a lot to see, walk and variety of snacks ($$).
The bad thing is that we couldn't see any elephants.

My kids and I love seeing all the animals and feeding the giraffes occasionally.

Had a blast during Christmas time at the Zoo Lights.

I had a great time with my granddaughter and grandson!

Super fun, but pack a lunch if you don't want to spend a lot on food there. Take water and a lot of sunscreen.

A place where the family feels good and enjoys nature at its best.

Very nice I like it very much you can cook your own food and it also helps you to walk with the family.

Sucks over rated way too much money and every animal hides can't see nothing and it smells real bad

It seems like every time I have visited lately, there are fewer animals on display than the time before. Many exhibits have been vacant for a long time.

Had a great time! Zoo layout could be more convenient, but there were a good amount of diverse animals

Honestly I'm a little bit biased because I love animals. If you do too then please come here because most of the money goes to conservation of Wildlife. The orangutan Bruno is one of my favorites, along with leadbottom the Andean condor. Again I may be a little bit biased also because I've been coming to the zoo since I was 2 years old. Still a delightful time you can spend all day walking around looking at and learning about animals. Very educational and fun time.

Small but cool a lot of different animals . Activities for kids

LA Zoo was doing BEST JOB of anyone in the city with safety. they had hand sanitizer EVERYWHERE not crowded plenty of social distance etc. i have loved going every two weeks and seeing the animals the best thing to do during this awful time. i dont understand why the city thinks its okay for huge movie crews which ive seen filming all over the city to film, but i cant walk alone outside in the sun to see animals. its ridiculous. also whenever i walk anywhere on the street TONS OF PEOPLE not wearing masks noone does anything but then you cant wear a mask and see animals walk and get exercise. its insane la zoo is great and deserves to be open. i miss the animals!!!!!

Called for information and "Max" was really rude, it was a simple question yet nothing nice about him. I understand your busy and can't Imagen the type of people you get over the phone but a smile and politeness doesn't hurt or kill you.

It is a good place to take the family and observe the different species of animals and enjoy the tranquility of the place

Good price and lots of animals, close to home and reasonable food.

I didn't go inside the zoo but it's a nice place to bring the family and to have some fun.

Haven't been inside in a while. Just glad to hear they are taking some good precautions to keep us humans and the animals safe...

Really nice Zoo, wonderful exhibits and good activities during the holiday season.

Dirty. Exhibits are sad with no sense of pride in ownership. Appears as if only minimum is kept up.

I came here on my honeymoon and it was a huge mistake. You know the horror stories they tell of zoos that only exist for entertainment purposes? This was definitely one. Overheard a zookeeper telling a visitor that the flamingos were wildcaught. Theres no conservation efforts at all so God knows where these animals came from. It smells awful, some exhibits looked so old and run down. The poor baby komodo dragons exhibit was all dirty, the windows, you could barely see through them. But yay for free parking. Made up for that cost with how expensive the gift shop was. Dont come here. Go to the Aquarium of the Pacific instead.

it a good zoo maybe the animals are not treated nice but staff is very nice

Had an amazing time feeding time is always the best time to visit the zoo.

Zoo Lights was an awesome experience for all ages. As long as you bundle up for below 50 degree weather everything else is perfect. The are many places for photo opportunities and warm food and beverages for purchase.
