Toronto Zoo

It’s a 10 km hike. Make sure you go early to get parking near the entrance. I recommend to spend an entire day there to cover everything. Lots of things to see and do for the kids and adults. The zoo is well managed with lots of food options everywhere. Animals look happy and I believe the zoo staff is doing a great job of providing for them. Buy tickets online to avoid standing in the line, wear for the occasional, and have lots of water ready. Kids need a stroller but you can rent one there. I would go back again, day well spent.

The Toronto Zoo holds a special place in my heart. Visiting as a child and now sharing special moments with my child, it has come around full circle. Having a membership gives great benefits from early admission, discounts on food, gift shops and first access on events. Most times I just visit to get away from the city and enjoy the serenity of nature and animals. There is a lot of construction happening now but from the looks of what's Happening if the construction is completed by the summer this will be a game changer! The new boardwalks, the paths the reconstruction of the entrance. I can see their vision and it will truly be amazing once everything is completed. Me is a perfect month to visit just be aware of the weather before visiting. But the temperature is perfect for walking the entire Zoo. For me I took my time and explored all the exhibits indoor and out including the greenhouse and the Animal Hospital. My favorite is the orangutan sanctuary where you can sit and watch baby Wali and his mama on the observation deck. It is absolutely astonishing to see how Zoo staff created their home away from home. All in all my visit took approximately 4 hours. Families have an option of renting strollers there's also the zoo mobile at a fee where you can take a small train / trolley around the park to visit all the animal exhibits and you can hop on the Zoo mobile at various locations within the grounds. I highly recommend the Toronto Zoo for families and even some "me time".

My recent visit to the Toronto Zoo was an absolute delight! From the moment I stepped through the gates, I was captivated by the vast array of animals and exhibits that awaited me. The zoo's commitment to conservation and education shines through in every aspect of the experience. One of the highlights of my visit was exploring the various themed areas, each meticulously designed to replicate the natural habitats of the animals. From the lush forests of the Americas to the arid landscapes of Africa, every corner of the zoo offered a unique glimpse into the diverse ecosystems of our planet. The animal enclosures were spacious and well-maintained, allowing the inhabitants to thrive in environments closely resembling their natural homes. I was particularly impressed by the zoo's efforts in providing enrichment activities for the animals, ensuring their physical and mental well-being. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and always eager to answer any questions I had. It was evident that they were passionate about their work and dedicated to the welfare of the animals in their care. Overall, my experience at the Toronto Zoo was both educational and enjoyable. It's the perfect destination for families, nature enthusiasts, and anyone looking to connect with the wonders of the animal kingdom. I highly recommend a visit to the Toronto Zoo for an unforgettable day of exploration and discovery.

Toronto Zoo is an amazing place for a day out gateway. It is very much for kids and so do for adults. Very well maintained. I would suggests to get tickets in advance so you can expedite your entry process. Keep in mind that in total, you will be hitting your daily step count. On average, you will do approx 12 km of walking to cover up everything. You can pay $9 to get pickup drop-off service between the parts of the zoo. Washrooms, water fountains, and food services are available throughout the zoo. Also, outside food is permitted. Parking is very easy and convenient, with an additional $15/full day price. I highly recommend that you be as early as much as possible closer to the opening time so you can give enough time to cover up everything.

Went on the weekend with my nephew and niece. The zoo wasn’t too busy, was lots of fun. Most exhibitions were open, lots of amazing animals, insects and wildlife to see. Was much bigger than what I was expecting, we really enjoyed our time here. We were there for 6 hours, it takes quite sometime to see everything. We spent some time in the gift shop and got a couple of souvenirs. Great place to take the family or go on a date. I would definitely recommend visiting the zoo to all my family and friends.
