Loved this zoo! We are members in Houston so we got in half price. The habitats are well cared for, the animals were mostly active and easy to see. Loved everything and hope we can go back next time we're in Arkansas.
Lots of exhibits are closed or under construction. Many exhibits need major maintenance.
Super enjoyable. Even during the pandemic they were super safe and still an experience.
Good place to bring kids, exhibits are dated and dirty.
its ok really dont have that special animals . they doing a lot of construction, so i cant judge according to my visit.
It's a really fun place to spend your time. I love to feed the koi fish and goats. Priced right for what you get. And we got to see the new baby gorilla. So cute.
I caught lots if pokemans please come its awesome but the snakes never moved a muscle
It was a good outing. My daughter rental me a mobile wheelchair. The only problem was I only used it for an hour and a half still had to pay $25.00 for the rental. I believe in this case it could have been half price because we were there from 6:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m which was closing time. when I spoke to worker about it, he said he wish could adjust the cost but did not do so.
Because of the animals they had. But super hot when I went and I went in the morning time. They need more shade for the gest.
plenty of attractions for the kids, efficient walking route
The zoo was great! I spent several hours discovering the great exhibits. My favorite was the Primates, Reptiles, Birds & more building. I specifically enjoyed the reptiles.
Weather was great and the farm animals exhibit was a favorite of my 4 year-old - thank you, Jessica! We were a bit bummed th qed t the penguins weren't there, but the baby gorilla made up for it!
The animals were very active and appeared to be well maintained. One of the better smaller zoo's I have been too.
On Saturdays entry is only $1! The zoo is pretty large considering Little Rock isn't a huge city. There's a great play area for kids and the bird house is so neat!
Needed mowed and weed eated. Exhibits were grown up hard to see into. Disappointed.
We recently purchased a membership, and manage to get to the zoo once a month. We really love the alpacas and the otters.
Love this place. Got here early today, the animals were just coming out, the keepers stopped to talk to my 4 yr old about the animals. Very cool.
Was nice except that the farm animal petting zoo part was restricted due to covid fears. My four year old autistic son is rather obsessed with petting zoos right now. Aside from that it was really nice as the where not many people there.
I love this zoo. My wife and I have been here at least 40 times throughout the last 5 years and have always had a good time!
The Zoo has many interactive activities, nice walkways & the train ride was short but sweet
Horrible wasn't really no animals out and alot of remodeling
Not bad, but disappointed today! Alot of animals were not on exhibit , couldn't feed the lorikeets that I paid for. Over priced in the gift shop! $20 bucks for a stuffed animal. Just a disappointing day with my grand daughter
If wishes were hippos, or rhinos, or giraffes, the Little Rock zoo might have some. Bought a family plus one season pass, but if not for the passport ability to use it at other zoo's across the country, probably not worth it. If you've been you know what I mean. If not, now you do.
The zoo staff are helpful and kid-friendly. The zoo itself is a walkable size for active young children with excellent play areas and conveniently located bathrooms. The animals are active and easily viewed.
Excellent zoo with friendly staff. Buy a season pass!
It's a really fun place for the whole family lots of animals to look at and even great food to eat,train ride also,cheep to get in
It was great!! Love the animals, they're so lively and look like they were having fun! The little monkey's even interacted with us!!
Nice little zoo. The exhibits are spread with multiple points to observe the large animals. At least three hours are needed if you want to see everything. There's a short train ride and a carrousel to take a break from watching.
Really a great place. Needs more security in the parking lots to detour thieves
Me personally, I thought it was actually kinda boring. The only thing that made it all worth it was that my kids had a blast. If it wasn't for them I'd probably never go back.
Very clean! Beautiful exhibits. Were able to see animals and another of them up close. Would recommend to go see.
Great place to take the kids for a little family fun
I grew up going to this zoo, because it's really the only zoo in Arkansas. They have so many animals from each continent. One of their recent additions is the penguin habitat.
The zoo of course seems smaller than when I was a child, but last time I went was still really enjoyable. The zoo charged only a dollar for admission on a Saturday and my whole family went for the occasion.
A lot of the animals are the exact same ones that have been there my whole life. They seem to be treated fairly well for a zoo, which means a lot to me.
The animals are taken care of and there are many of them but prices in most things are a little high.
The bears looked so sad and had no water to swim in.
Loved the zoo but it was too hot and crowded. Not the zoo's fault though. Wir
SH they would have dollar day earlier or later in the year when the temperatures aren't scorching.
We had so much fun on a field trip for my grandson's kindergarten class.
Boo at the zoo is a great time for the kids and families
Nice place for the kids. Convenient location and parking.
It could be my fault for visiting during Carona, but we had less than stellar time. Id say a good 75% of animals we didnt even see. The few animals that we see were sad looking. I cant even blame them. It was hot with no opportunity to cool down. The only upsides were it was not busy and the staff was really. If your thinking about going Id hold off for now.
Reasonable pricing and parking is only $3. The kids loved it!
Due to COVID-19 our prices are reduced!!! Dont look for that but youll get a sad, depressing outing. Even the animals are depressed. It was not what i was expecting. A lot of empty exhibits but charging full price. I was disappointed in the Arkansas zoo. Im a veteran and that was still disappointing even with my minimal discount. What happened to understanding??? If the zoo is having a hard time staying afloat think about the people trying to take their familiies there. I hope the world gets better but Ill never visit the Arkansas zoo again even if they have free admission.
Gone here since i was a baby. I take my baby boy there. I hope i can take my grandbaby one day. Arkansas
Meh. It was okay. A lot of the exhibits wete empty. But the ones that werent were pretty good.
They really have done a good job with all the updates. Nice place for family s to enjoy each other & learn facts & to appreciate each other & animals togetherness.
It was $day we ate at the restaurant there is was good service was fast
Not a huge animal choice but for the price paid absolutely brilliant.
We have been to the Tulsa zoo, Oklahoma City zoo and Sedgwick county zoos. This one tops all of them! The animals are all so close and easily seen! We loved it and look forward to more trips!
A little more shade would've made our day in the zoo more pleasant. The farm fascinated my toddler a lot but obviously no petting allowed these days. Elephants, gorillas were nice
We love the zoo, our family of four have been members for over a decade. They do a nice job updating the enclosures and putting enrichment items out for the animals. My biggest concern is the lack of new animals, the giraffes are gone no hippos to be seen. Not to say they never get new ones (like the Ringtails and Alpacas). It is a small zoo that is land locked, similar to the fair grounds, so they have to be attentive to figure out new exhibits. I would love to see more animals and less playground equipment personally. Still a solid 4 star for me and worth a visit especially if you have young children.
We practically had the zoo to ourselves because it was so cold!!
Wow,, Not as good as others I've been to in other states, But very nice & quiant
Nice little zoo. Takes about 3-4 hours to walk the whole thing with a 9 and 3 year old. Lots of shaded areas for talking a break in the sun. Unfortunately, while we were there quite a few of the animals either weren't on display or were hiding because of the heat. There is a nice little petting area for the kids with goats and other animals to pet though.
It's a good place for families and children if you're a resident of little rock or around it , it's worthy to have a membership with them ..
A great zoo. Lots of new improvements and I've noticed more events happening also. I can't wait to see what they do next!
My husband and I took a friend's son to the LR Zoo for a day of fun-filled activities. As we walked along looking at different animals, I noticed most exhibits we're very unkept and the animals looked sad. At one time, the LR Zoo was ranked as one of the most beautiful zoo's. What has happened? Most of the exhibits we're grown up with grass that needed to be cut. I was very disappointed in what I saw. Quite a few animals were not on exhibit (tigers, alligators etc.). I hope the zoo's task force will make needed improvements to this zoo. War Memorial Park has been around for years and it need to maintain it's popularity with not only the zoo but the stadium as well. The new exhibit on the round about on Fair Park Blvd. is really nice and it represents the zoo. Please get the zoo back to its natural beauty it once was.
City of Little Rock should be MORE supportive and not so negative about our good Zoo. Great Zoo but needs a sponsorship from GREEDY Walmart or Tyson ! Shame on them for not being supportive.
It was a lovely walk on a brisk day. A lot of construction and modernizing going on. We sat in the sun on a bench and relaxed. Restrooms were nice. Walkways were large and accessible. A nice spot was made for the kids to play.
My grandchildren love the penguin exhibit! They enjoy most of the exhibits a lot.
The kids love coming here. We've been here with their school, on our own, to boo at the zoo, and we've always had a great time.
We were there with our grandbabies and had a wonderful day.
