Not a terrible zoo. But it requires a ton of walking and self-navigating as there are no signs or logical flows to the layout or design. Very confusing and the restaurants were out of pretty much everything, charging $5 per small cup of lemonade. Lol. Also, a huge part was under construction. But otherwise, it was cool.

I have already left a review for the zoo but I just love this place so much I wanted to leave another. We took our nephew again and this time we did the giraffe feedings and that was a really neat experience. Everyone should try it at least once. I’m 26 and it was the first time I’ve ever fed them but it was a wonderful experience for me, I can’t image how fun a kid would have! Nephew enjoyed it but he’s 2.5 y/o for reference.

The lights at the zoo were amazing!! I've never seen anything like that there. I definitely think it was worth the cost.

Nice zoo. All staff we encountered were nice. We enjoyed the elephant presentation. Map isn't perfect, but gets you around. Map signs could use a, "you are here" indicator. We had beautiful weather on a Saturday in November and didn't feel overcrowded. Bought our tickets online on the way to the zoo and bypassed the line and scanned in. Definitely the way to go. Fun day at a nice zoo. Visit here if you are in OKC.

I LOVE THE OKC ZOO!! And if you get a chance to visit Oct 2021-Dec 2021, you won’t be disappointed! (Especially if you’re an art enthusiast!) They have currently installed hundreds of gorgeous fabric sculpture all over the zoo. They are constructed of wire with silky fabric stretched over them and they will light up for the holidays. They haven’t had a holiday light event in many, many years! So excited! That being said, these sculptures are beautiful even in the daytime when not lit up! Definitely a must-see! Also, the zoo is undergoing some construction in parts of the park, but definitely still worth visiting. Lots of wonderful exhibits with beautiful animals. And their works toward conversation and helping these different species and educating people on how we can help is wonderful. I’m a proud member of this zoo! Feed the giraffes, too! They’re great! Demetri is big and Ellie is funny to watch.

Went to see the holiday lights. They were cool but I was expecting much more in the walkthrough section. Didn’t pay to drive through. Seems a little pricey for what it is considering there are so many free spots to see lights.

Great zoo with a lot of activities through out the year.. A lot of walking around to get to where you want to go but hopefully that will improve once the new exhibits are complete. We attended the special holiday light show this trip & it was fantastic. We all enjoyed the drive thru & walk thru areas greatly.

At this time of the year, the zoo didn’t have a lot of visitors, which we liked! No lines, great staff! The layout of the zoo is very easy to follow, the OKCZoo is under construction for a part of the zoo but as you can see in the pictures, that didn’t hinder the flow of our visit. Even though we arrived late, at 3:30pm we still got to see a lot with a reasonable pace. It’s very kid friendly. $12/adult, memberships are available to for $90/ couple with kids up to 3yrs or $120/ couple with up to 4 kids — check the website for more details and coupons. Can highly recommend, it was an awesome visit! Thanks!!

Really cool. Lots and lots to see. Walked around 2 hours and still did not get to see everything. Great gift shop. Good prices. Admission was really cheap for everything they offered. Would love to come back and see the rest.

Definitely recommend coming even though they still have parts of it are under construction. The Expedition Africa looks like a must see once finished. The sea lion show is a must see. Definitely worth the money. We didn't get to see the elephant show but have heard great things of it. Didn't get to feed the giraffes but was definitely one of my favorite parts. I would recommend paying for the tram. This was a must and you can get on any of it's stops. It's only $6 per person and they give you a wristband so you don't lose a ticket. I would recommend more areas for shade and would recommend more misting stations. Along with more areas to buy drinks. I would say they had enough benches along the way but not all had shade. The food was great but be prepared to pay $$$.

This is one of the best zoos I've ever been to and I've been to zoos and at least 10 different states. I didn't I love their turtles and their elephants the most. They also have a little splash pad area that has a waterfall and a creek that the kids are allowed to play in and get wet so that's pretty awesome during the summer.

We love this zoo. Every time we go it’s a different experience. Has a wide range of animals and has Asian elephants. Petting the goats was fun for my toddler. It’s extremely affordable compared to other zoos in the country. Parking is easy to find. Highly recommend!

A great place to walk around on a nice breezy Saturday on the last weekend of the fair... So, not much of a crowd there when we went... We've been coming here for years and you can definitely tell that the renovations going on will be a total upgrade to the zoo... It was clean for the most part and the food court wasn't bad... All staff wore masks and the restrooms were clean... They also had the Dino Safari going on outside of the old aquarium, which I suggest saving your money and bypassing this attraction altogether, unless you just want to donate to the zoo... They also offer free covid shots out front by the entrance... I'm so glad they got the parking lot fixed... If you're in search of nice family outing, check out the zoo... You can even bring in your own food and beverages to have a picnic in some of the new eating rest areas inside the zoo... Have fun and enjoy!!!

The workers were very nice and kept things moving. I couldn't believe how beautiful the animals and fish and flowers were. They were huge and lit in real life colors! Kids of all ages will love the whole experience!

We go to the zoo a lot. My daughter always loves looking at the animals. They’re doing Christmas lights this year and it was a lot of fun to experience the zoo in a different way!

It was nice. But so many times we were lost and had to find the way back to the animals we wanted to see. We also went on a sunny afternoon, which I wouldn't recommend as we were so drained at the end and we were not able to see many animals as they were inside the enclosure hiding from the sun. Many experiences inside has separate payment. If you wish to enjoy everything from touching stingray, riding camels, Dino Park, etc., then purchase the entire package ticket instead of buying it at the booths.
