I purchased tickets online when planning our trip. When we got there you had to park over a mile away. Apparently it was free admission day and the website did not tell us that. Call before buying tickets online.

Also, as of June 2008 the zoo is showing the same Sponge Bob movie as Kings Island. We paid for the show to find out our kids had ...

This is not a huge zoo, but you can see everything in 4-5 hours. I enjoyed the many labeled plants, as well as the animals. They also have several indoor displays. Including: The reptile house, the cat house, the world of insects.

I'm a big fan of zoos. My wife and I have been to many zoos, including the Atlanta Zoo, Cleveland Zoo, Smithsonian Zoo in D.C., Memphis Zoo, Tampa Zoo, Disney's Animal Kingdom, and others. The Cincinnati Zoo is simply awesome. I love this place and it's definitely worth a trip. It's much nicer than the Atlanta or Memphis Zoos, ...

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have visited the Cincinnati Zoo several times and plan to continue to do so in the future. The most recent visit I attended the Cheetah Run. The Cheetah Run was amazing and breath taking. I highly recommend you plan your visit accordingly, by going on the web site to see the times of their special shows, and try to attend these.

Really expected a great zoo with all the hype surrounding the Cincy Zoo, but was disappointed. Lions & the tiger were sleeping and one of the polar bears paced back & forth for a solid 10 minutes...it was almost like watching an inmate in a prison...very depressing. The petting zoo consisted of a few dwarf goats and a pot-bellied pig ...

Well layed out and animals easy to view and well cared for. Beautiful experience. Wonderful place to relax. We love taking our grand children and friends.
