Zoo Miami Ticket with Optional Upgrade
Description
Zoo Miami is the largest zoo in Florida and the fifth largest in the United States. Our lush, tropical, open-air exhibits replicate our animals' natural habitats and allow guests to enjoy beautiful and endangered wildlife at a safe, yet close range. As the only sub-tropical zoo in the continental U.S., the unique climate in South Florida allows us to care for a wide variety of animals from Asia, Australia, Africa, and the Americas. Zoo Miami today occupies almost 750 acres, 4 miles of walkways, and is home to more than 2,000 animals representing over 375 different species. Of this population, more than 130 species are at risk in the wild: many classified as endangered or critically endangered. Zoo Miami is proud to be an active leader in many global wildlife and environmental conservation initiatives. We are accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums which means we have passed a rigorous inspection process and meet or exceed the AZA's standards for animal health and welfare.

Excellent every time we travel we use the application we get the best experiences 💪 at better prices Birthday gift for my son
So we booked the zoo due to the inclined weather conditions we didn't get to view anything. All we did was sat there and waited for the rain to stop but it never did and the zoo was closed. We re kindly asking if we can be rescheduled or refunded.
The rain and thunder was very heavy. We didn't get to see anything. We're disappointed since we are on vacation. I know it would have been a wonderful experience if he weather was clear.
Very nice Zoo. The zoo is large so leave yourself plenty of time to enjoy it all.
The zoo was set up well. We had a good time observing the animals and foliage. Recommend when you visit Miami.
This is a beautiful zoo- clean, well maintained and easy to find your way around. We rented a pedal bike since our time was limited that day and got to see everything we wanted. Our favorite exhibit was feeding the lorikeets. Friendly staff, lots to see and read, paved access everywhere. We loved it so much that we purchased a membership even though we'll only be in the area for 4 months!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We're happy to hear you enjoyed your visit and that you got a membership! You can stay in touch with us via social media at @zoomiami. Hope to see you again soon!
Very spacious Park although that much transportation needs and the one traim they have the times are way too off Animals seem to just hide away with the heat and prices for food are way overpriced unfortunately this didn't feel like a real zoo
Hi there, thank you for visiting our zoo and for leaving your feedback. We appreciate it! We will take your tram and pricing feedback to your team. We understand the heat in Miami is no joke, as do our animals. While our keepers provide cooling enrichment, treats, and opportunities for our animals to engage with, we never force them to do so. Just like humans, they love to cool off and spend their day in the shade, too. We hope to see you again soon!
We paid $7 extra to take the narrated trolley ride that passes behind the scenes, explanation was great but he got mad because some passengers (2 small kids and adults who needed translation, interrupted him) The zoo has many exhibits, some relocations etc in overall a lot of walking to see everything, there is an option to rent the ride on cycle either pedal or electric but seemed expensive to us. Make sure to spend at least 3-4 hours to take it all in.

The Zoo Miami didn't disappoint for the plethora of fana and animal species from various ecosystems was incredible to see. We were especially impressed with the Amazon Rainforest and the live show presentation. We definitely look forward to coming back with our entire family.
The Zoo is currently undergoing major renovations, and unfortunately there was very little to see during our visit. Many exhibits contained swampy water, and several animals were taken inside around 1:30 p.m. while staff cleaned the areas. This was extremely disappointing, as guests paid full admission but were unable to view many of the animals. It seems these cleaning activities could have been completed before visitors arrived for the day. The bicycle rental process was also frustrating. It took approximately 10–15 minutes just to connect to the internet and complete the rental process. The Wi-Fi service was very poor, leaving numerous guests standing around waiting 5–10 minutes simply to get enough connectivity to proceed. If patrons are required to use Wi-Fi to rent bicycles, the Zoo should invest in a more reliable network. Once we finally reached the rental window to receive the key, only one service window was open while two employees stood nearby talking. After waiting several more minutes, a second window was eventually opened. Thankfully the line was not long, but the process appeared disorganized and would have been much more frustrating during a busy time. Overall, our experience was disappointing. Between the renovations, limited animal viewing opportunities, poor Wi-Fi, and inefficient bicycle rental process, the visit did not meet expectations. The Zoo should consider improving communication about renovations, scheduling exhibit maintenance before operating hours, upgrading Wi-Fi capabilities, and streamlining the bicycle rental process to provide a better guest experience.
