I had not been back to see the Bronx Zoo in over 40 years. It was a pleasant experience to see that it is still there, acres and acres of natural habitat for wild animals in the midst of a concrete jungle. We were told that admission is free on Wednesdays, we were there on a Thursday so we had to pay.
Anyhow, we were fortunate to see tigers, leopards, gorillas, and even the lions. However, the lions were lounging about when we passed their enclosure and did not do much activity. The other animals, such as the tigers and the gorillas, walked around close to the glass so we could really see them in action. One particular pleasure was to see the pink flamingos. For some reason, a park worker came out and chased them away after a few minutes, an interesting sight.
The park was not overly crowded, there were lots of children. Before we left, we were able to ride the carousel, there is no extra charge for doing that. To see the major sites within the Bronx Zoo takes a lot of walking but is, in my opinion, well worth it.

Worst zoo I have ever visited. Barely any animals on display, exhibits closed. The animals that were on display were in exhibits looked so run down and the animals looked sad and depressed. It was actually upsetting to see. Would definitely not recommend going

Spent a day at the zoo, and did a cheeter encounter. This was a wonderful experience, well worth doing, and the zoo itself is amazing.

After a much needed vacation we decided to visit the zoo. The most memorable experience was my daughter’s expression hearing the Lion roar and seeing the Giraffes.

There were no gorillas because of the weather (high was 54) and a lot of the other animals were missing too. I might as well have gone to the queens zoo. The health and comfort of the animals is important but i wish for $40 a ticket they would have explained that on the website or reduced the ticket price. A lot of the pathways were closed off and they had whole areas closed off. Also, I don’t understand why they make you show your ticket at the entrance of a lot of the exhibits once you’re in the park. It’s not the end of the world but inconvenient when you’re juggling kids and strollers. The bathrooms were also very dirty and only had hand dryers (no paper towels) which my young kids are afraid of. This isn’t the bronx zoo experience I remember as a kid

Disappointed by lack of large animals outside. There were no staff members to ask directions or receive information from. They charge a regular price but many exhibits closed and large animals not available to be seen . Had been to the providence zoo two weeks prior and all their large animals were outside with a staff member available at almost all exhibits for information. No staff available at all within park. Very disappointed. If you are into small creatures within exhibits inside buildings this is the place for you. Interior spaces all dark and ver difficult yo keep track of children. Literally to dark and dreadful smell in all buildings.

The Viator experience was perfect. To be honest I was a bit disappointed in the Bronx Zoo. Considering it is like the fourth largest in the world and I think one of the top two in the US, we left rather unimpressed. Part of it was also the time of year. The animals were hard to see. There so many more animals could comfortably fit in the zoo with all the space available. Although - good for the animals that were not there - hopefully enjoying their freedom in the wild where they belong. The price was right on this package. I much preferred the Central Park Zoo.

Was not able to use the ticket i bought through VIATOR. Was a complete scam. Could not use the tickets i got through Viator. No email sent to my email with the tickets. The app and website is ABSOLUTELY NOT user friendly. Could not use the tickets had to buy others. 0/10 👎👎👎👎👎👎

The animals were nice but i ended up paying $34 for the ticket when it turns out students only have to pay $8….. The app nor the site told me of this information and I really feel like I wasted my money.
