My grandson has greatly enjoyed it, we have been there three or four times. Also recommend eating at Dillons afterwards and sit by the shark tank. Personally I like it better than the Phoenix zoo and I hate to say that
Love this zoo more than the Phoenix Zoo. Plus they always have coupons for admission and much better views of the animals.
Purchased year passes. We will be doing the zoo plenty this year. Enjoyed the animals and cool weather.
Great zoo! Make sure you have lots of time, there is so much to see.
wonderful petting zoo, great for kids who love a hand on experience with animals like goats and deer
Great place for bird lovers and lemur fans. Friendly giraffes and a baby animal exhibit. Bring cash, everything is cash only! Bring quarters.
Miss this place tried to find virtual tour, no luck
Honestly it was really fun. Recommend bringing lots of water!!
This place is over priced, it cost us $100.00 for two adults and two children. The so called aquarium is very small, the only animals my kids could enjoy were the giraffes. I just can't understand why they are receiving such high ratings. I drive by this place once a week, on the 303, and I never see any people within the park. I see animals walking around eating in the park, but no humans walking around and nobody on the park rides. The one good thing is that there is never a crowd of people, so you will basically have the place to your self, for what it is worth.
I love coming here. They need a pass type deal for the rides its very expensive.
Great zoo! This zoo is great and I love coming here with family.
I love the Wildlife World Zoo. I take my kids there every Sunday.
It is dusty and muddy wear closed toed shoes. But all in all was a great experience
Aquarium has lots of eels. Make sure you look up. Zoo has lots of birds.
Fun place for kids and families; well run, clean and interesting!
So much fun! My 2 year old was in heaven! You can even feed the sea lions and the giraffes! We ll definitely be back :)
Got free ticket to go there lots of animals to see they are adding another section with 28 animals .have fish an rides for kids
Not much shade, small exhibits, standard selection of animals to see. Definately feed the giraffes though, those guys were characters.
I thought it was really great! Beautiful day, very natural environment with animals up close and easy to see. Loved the exotic birds, monkeys with brand new baby, cheetah,...awesome!
we like it it's bigger than what I was thinking but it's a little over price it for snacks and drinks inside.
The family had a fun time. I recommend getting there as early as possible because parking can get filled quick. Check online for discounted tickets.
Sad and run down. The animals looked depressed and the cages were small and a lot of trash has accumulated in and around the exhibits. It's too bad for the animals, their habitats were anything but natural. It's very pricey and you pay extra for each ride as they are not included in the admission to the park.
This is a great zoo. So many animals to see and lots of fun stuff to do. Would highly recommend spending the day here. Lots of trees for shade and the place is so big it never really feels too crowded.
Really fun worth the money forsure just remember to bring cash they have no card readers
I highly recommend becoming a member for a year if you live nearby. The animals are well taken care of.
TLDR; Mostly happy animals, super-cool "abandoned" vibe, one of the tastiest burgers I've ever paid $6 for.
I'd also like yo take this opportunity to offer my pro bono services of "wild animal snuggler." I'll sign whatever waivers, I just want to give everyone pets and scritchas.
Nice zoo. Lots of unique animals and things to do. Has an aquarium and rides also.
I looovvvveeeee this place!!!! Everytine everyone is so nice!!!
Great zoo!! Yesterday was my first time there and I personally like it alot better than the Phoenix Zoo because you get to see the animals a lot closer but my only issue is its not cheap to get in. It's $35 plus tax so make sure you bring money with you because the rides aren't cheap either
Great place to see animals while enjoying the outdoors. If you like zoos and live close by check out the annual pass.
Lots of interesting animals, birds, reptiles and fish. Food and restrooms throughout. But they say masks required at all times but you'll only see them at the entrance and it got very crowded. Took off stars for that. Otherwise would be 5 stars.
Had fun with the family, lots of new things there and we had a blast.
Awesome zoo. Lots of animals and very close proximity to them.
It is a family friendly zoo with lots of space to maintain social distancing.
I just love it. All the animals are close so it's easy for small children to see them. I would definitely recomend a visit. Only down fall is they are a bit pricey. Groupon sometimes has deals.
The animals are set up in a way to make them very easy to see. Some of the rides let you get very close to the animals.
Fun place for kids and adults. NOT CHEAP. It's a private owned zoo so the city zoo would be cheaper and better for animals. Aquarium is cool. A few rides. The Dillon's BBQ restaurant is the best of the Dillon's in the area. Prices are a bit above average. I'm a certified BBQ judge so will say food is just above average. It's a full day. Bring sunscreen, a hat and lots of water.
Awesome selection of animals. They all look happy and healthy. Had a lot of fun!
Several issues here! First, the price of admission is truly rediculous. Second, instead of investing so much money on rides, they should instead do some long overdue upgrades to the animal habitats. We saw cage after cage of miserable animals who are not given any enrichment whatsoever. The monkeys were so bored except for the one playing with a lens from someone's discarded sunglasses. The park is dirty and the smell coming from the exotic bird cages was almost unbearable.
Had a great time and got to go on a school discount! So much to see!
Me favorite zoo in Phoenix area hands down! Sorry Phoenix zoo
I'm sorry I didn't go to the zoo I went to Dillons resterant sat with the sharks got the full rack brantasaurse ( Beef ) ribs , great ,went back again a week later so it has to be good , I did noticed my son's rib rack this time was bigger then mine ( lol ) still took 4 ribs home I'll be back again soon
I'm really on the fence about zoo's, but this is a much different experience. Animals have lots of room to run, play and just be themselves. You can get surprisingly close to the big animals yet still be in complete safety. Enclosures are large, clean and we'll maintained. I'll definitely be going back as soon as it cools off a bit.
Too much of the same caged animals in a very large, dusty area of north west Phoenix location. You pay way too much for the rides and it's a cash only park, you can get cash from an ATM except that you are paying extra to use their machines. So over priced for the trip.
I did enjoy the barbeque place next door very much. Great food!
The Best Leisure Activity in the West Valley
Great for annual passes to go for walks and enjoy the atmosphere
Animals are well treated and staff is courteous, been enjoying this zoo for over 20 years
I took my son for the first time, he was excited to see the abimales.
We love coming here! The kids always have such a good time. The animals are so close and easy to see. Best wild life zoo.
This is such an awesome place to go for some good ol' family fun! You walk in to a clean and friendly enviorment that remains that way through out your visit. They offer, depending on the day, certain animal shows (like sea lions) that are free for your family's enjoyment. The bird feeding brought lots of smiles to our faces! This is a place that you have to plan to stay the entire day if you want to see everything that they have. With train rides, baby animals, and different themed aquariums that won't be hard to do!
Great place to take the kids love the rino with they had elephants!
Such a fun day trip! BBQ restaurant was delicious and entertaining. Have cash on you for the rides! ($8-$3.50) and quarters to feed the animals.
Really muddy, but it would have been a 5 if they actually had giraffes!!
Loved it so much. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO VISIT. AWESOME STAFF AND BEAUTIFUL ANIMALS!
Adding new exhibits and attractions frequently, and takes longer to see than the Phoenix zoo. Almost all dirt paths so beware if your wearing any kind of sandals cause your feet will be nasty. All in all a cool place outside of the city so traffic is not much of an issue, only real drawback is the prices for food and drink inside but that is the case with all zoos and amusement parks.
Visited from out of state, not worth the money spent. Tourist trap.
This is a wide open space of serenity and cool animals to see. My favorites are the lions, leopards, black panther, and the penguins. It's set up where you can eat your lunch, buy a gift, or feed the giraffes. Plan on spending about 4 hours, so you have time to see a show. The cost is around $40, but they have all types of ways to get a $5 discount, which is way worth it.
Plus you get entertained by F-15 Jets taking off from Luke Air Force Base.
I love that they seem to take good care of the animals.
A lot of walking but worth it. We'll be back. Entertaining
Alot of fun and animals to see and feed...train ride thru out the park...good family outing...
They need to focus more on the animals then trying to get money from the rides and they need to make sure that the people don't touch the animals without permission. Also there are a lot of the same animals just in different parts of the zoo
Have passes. Newly expanded and plans on expanding more.ake sure to have cash as each food location is cash only. ATM on premises but charge a fee. Aslo, all rides cost in addition to the process of admission so once again, ensure cash on hand if planning to ride.
Better than the Phx zoo! It's 208 acres, a lot of walking, lol! My 2 grandkids didn't want to leave! Only thing, we didn't get to see any Kookaburras.....
Great place for children and adults. Lots to see.Good restaurant too!
Super large zoo. Loved taking my kids here. They enjoyed it very much so. You might need to take two trips it's so big! The bears were my favorite.
Great park with tons of birds ( I love birds) somewhat spread apart and everything is an extra. Bring cash if you want to eat, drink, ride, etc..
