My recent visit to this place was just terrible. What did I pay for exactly? The price of $28 did not include anything inside the park, not the train, boat, the water ride. This place was tagged "The Money Pit" by myself and my guest.
Some of the young staff were just plain rude and drove those carts around without a care in the world ...
this zoo is poorly maintained, dried out bushes and no flowers for color. people could walk through the gift shop into the park without paying. your receipt for the $26.60 for adults and 14.95 for children was a map of the zoo. Nice receipt! Staff had very poor attitudes and extremely rude. 3 water fountains in entire place! One was covered in ...
Close to animals. Not crowded. The entry fee did not include other parts of zoo. Had to pay extra for boat ride, tram ride and train ride. Did not have time to all of the park. Our own fault we when late.
I went to the Opening of the Aquarium with my parents, 3 boys, and husband. It came to $250. I also went to the new restraunt and that cost $80. They did not have some of the animals they were suppose to have. My mother said something to the manager about it, he told her off, said they had never had complaints before. She wasn't complaining, ...
Too pricey. Has doubled since last year (both admission and membership) Restaraunt not the high quality it advertises. food good at best but a nice shark tank.
Extras too much after paying large admission price. (train-6, boat-2, log ride $6??? for almost 2 minutes and one drop, skyride $4-6, stingray feeding $3 for a container of 3 half ...

Never again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/18/08
My wife and I decided to take our 3 and 4 year old grandsons. We had not been back since we took our kids. First of all, they don't talk credit cards, cash or check only. We had coupons for our grandsons but it cost my wife and I $36. Paying cash used up the $40 that I brought for snacks and gifts. From then on things went down hill. Lost ...

Great for the 'Big Kids' too
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/13/08
This is the second time we went we brought 2 daughters and 2-2yr old grandchildren from out of state and this turned out to be the highlight of the trip. We arrived early to beat the heat and it was just as wonderful the 2nd time as it was the first. The two yr olds enjoyed the train ride, the boat ride, petting zoo, park and of course their ...

politically incorrect zoo
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/31/07
Living in the cultural desert of the west valley, phoenix area, there aren't too many things to do without driving downtown or to scottsdale. The world wildlife zoo is close. They have a great collection of animals and you can really see them. And you can feed them too. And pet them (in petting zoo). And ride the carousel, the train, the ...

Great Day at Zoo
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/16/07
Husband & I went at 1:00 Feb 12 2007 it was a great day. We got to feed the birds apples out of our hands. This is only at specific times of the day (like 11,1 & 3) We hand feed the giraffe's. The white baby tigers were very active. There was a white McCaw that talked to us for a long time very social bird. Everything but the lions were ...
