This zoo is really beautiful. I remember coming here on a field trip here ten years ago and not thinking it was anything special, but today they have made so many improvements it was one of the best times I've ever had at a zoo. The animal exhibits are incredible. They are clean, well kept, and kids really get to interact with the animals (touch tanks, feeding the birds, feeding the giraffes, ect.). I will definitely go back to this zoo.

Love it. Very kid friendly atmosphere. Very colorful. Not sure if the flamingos are supposed to be out in such a cold day today 4/27/19. I did not get a chance to walk around due to a birthday party event I attended. Did not like that the date of the birthday party could not be changed.

I really liked coming here to Turtle Back Zoo. I haven't been here in so many years so every time I pass here to go to my aunt house which is 5 minutes away,I see that Turtle Back Zoo had been doing so many changes and renovation. Really nice...

If you like to see animals in a quiet, calm environment, DO NOT come here! It's little more than a thinly disguised kiddie amusement park with a few animals as a diversion. Lots of loud music (boom, boom, boom!) and eateries. It sucks if you are an animal-loving adult.

Went early on Sunday with cold weather a breeze thru more employees then patrons. Nice train ride giraffe can't and didn't come out unless 50+ degrees. Nice layout and they have considerable reno jobs inside the park. I guess bigger and better a very clean environment!

Zoo made a great effort to keep social distancing in effect. Timed entry (so book ahead of time), lots of hand sanitizer stations, and the train either had plexiglass shields between rows or the trains were run at half capacity to make sure there is space between riders.

The zoo has really upped it's game in recent years. The enclosures are far more appropriate for the animals. Gone is the sad little cafeteria, it has been replaced with an awesome two story safari themed building where you sit outside on an thatched roof patio and have a beer. There are two playgrounds and although you don't go there for this it is a nice respite for the kids. The family membership is well worth it as the zoo is open year round!

Nice little zoo with a polite and courteous clientele and employees.

Jaguars, cheetah, leopard, red panda, crocodile. Bison, wolves, prairie dogs, farm animals, touch tank, bald eagle, etc.

When open walk into bird sanctuary filled with hundreds of parakeets that land on your feed stick ($1).

Free train ride through woods however lines can be over 45min long; carousel costs $2/ride; food vendors and gift store.

If you live within 45min and have small kids get the family annual pass. Makes for a nice day when you can go on the annual pass. They also allow you to bring in your own food/drink in the stroller or backpack.

I LOVE this zoo! Its clean and well-organized. The wait time on a busy day isn't even worth complaining about. Wish the prices were cheaper but nonetheless one of my favorite zoos to visit with my son.

Cool!

Fantastic zoo! The exhibits are great with some unique species you don't see in some other nearby zoos (hyenas, Andean condors, etc). The zipline looks like a lot of fun. Already planning on returning for the ales and tails event next summer!

The Turtle Back Zoo is an amazing gem in New Jersey. I went for my first time this weekend, and I wasn t sure what to expect, but it was amazing.

The zoo is clean, there s a lot of different exhibits and animals to see, and there s many places to just sit and relax.

I had a wonderful time visiting and loved getting to see a wide variety of species, from big cats like lions, to cute little seahorses!

It s a must visit location for anyone of any age!

Only been to their light's festival that they do for the evening's during the Christmas season for the second year in a row the kids love it...even my never impressed 10 year old daughter that usually fiends everything boring! They have a really cool train ride with polar express music from the animated movie which was cool, the lights were very nice they also had a Disney princess theme with two women dressed as Disney princess posed for pictures with kids whicj my 7 year old loved and right next to them was a face painting display in the sting ray & Shark petting pool which is pretty awesome that the kid's & adults can't seem to get enough of! NOTE: The night event is Free it's a suggestion to donate canned goods for a food drive they have going on at the entrance so it's for a great cause!

Love the Christmas light festival " Holiday Lights Spectacular" at Turtle Back Zoo-- free train rides and carousel rides for children. Dont forget to donate a coat, food items, and new toys! 50 winter and aminal characters 5pm-9 on free admission and parking! Great hot chocolate $3.00!
