I loved this Zoo! I loved how open the park was for all the animals. The view to see all the amnimals was so amazing. We could not have been any closer to them. My daughter saw zoo animals up close for the first time and she was so thrilled. This zoo has the animals in such an open enviorment thant when you are in Africa, you feel as though you are ...
The biggest negative of this zoo is how spread out it is. There is a lot of walking but you can talk the tram which drops you off at stops in the zoo and then you can hop back on when you are ready to go. The animals are in their natural setting. Negatives include high priced food and not a lot of benches to rest. I feel the zoo is resonably ...

GREAT ZOO
By kevinlear2000, 08/09/05
WE REALLY ENJOYED THE ZOO BUT THERE WAS A LOT OF WALKING. WE ENJOYED HOW CLOSE YOU COULD GET TO THE ANIMALS AND THE DIFFERENT KINDS OF ANIMALS THAT THEY HAD. THE ONLY THING WE DIDN'T LIKE WAS THE TRAIN RIDE - THERE WASN'T MUCH TO LOOK AT.

Good zoo, lots of walking
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 04/11/05
I've read a few negative reviews about this place online, but I decided to go anyway, because it was twice the size of the St. Louis zoo, which I'm used to going to, and it had an Australia section, something different. The zoo itself is divided into continents, and the journey to each, especially Africa, is a nice sightseeing walk. I must ...

A Fantastic Zoo!
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 07/24/07
The zoo was kept incredibly neat and clean. I loved how it really felt like you were walking through the actual countries that the animals are from as you tour the zoo. You can get very close to the animals and the exhibits are designed so naturally that the zoo has even taken steps to hide things like food dishes from the public viewing. The zoo ...

A Beautiful Zoo
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 07/02/06
This is one of the cleanest zoos I've ever visited. Small cascades and waterfalls run throughout the entire zoo. It's really a nice place to bring the children. Only sour note about this place is everything is spaced so far apart. Kansas City is a place with many hills & climbing these small mountains can be quite exhausting when trying to entertain children. On a windy day this would be great stop on a family vacation.

I love walking and zoos
By JC V, 05/01/06
I've been to 15 of the best zoos in the country. Nearly ever major zoo this side of the Mississippi. San Diego, Omaha, San Francisco, St. Louis, Monterey Aquarium and many more. This may be the best zoo in the country for me. I love walking and I love a great zoo. If you don't like walking this zoo is decent and you will not be able to ...

Very spread out
By bearcatprof, 10/05/07
While it is good to have so much space for the larger animals, this zoo is much more spread out than any other I've visited and made for a very long day, as we had a handicap member of our party.

A lot of walking!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 07/31/06
My husband and I just took our daughter this past weekend for the first time. We are from Omaha and are used to the Henry Doorly Zoo, so this was a major dissapointment.
There is way too much walking and it takes forever to get to an exhibit. I think the things we enjoyed the most were Zooville, the reptile show, feeding the deer and the ...
