I recommend walking in and immediately taking the free GUIDED BUS TOUR, and then proceed to walk through the park. START BY LOOKING AT THE MAP, and planning your way, I recommend starting with the giraffes. Don’t forget that there’s an elevator!!! If anyone is disabled, you can rent an electric scooter for $65 for the day. Highly recommended. I also recommend that you go on to SKYFARI at the end of the day RT, to get an overview of the Zoo.

I want to also say that they do not take reservations!!! AND THEY CAN SELL OUT!!! We always try to start right when they place opens at 9:00 AM. It's a good time to start anyway because the animals are wide awake, and usually eating. We also usually start by renting the scooter, then riding it over to the Bus Tour.
