The zoo was beautiful! Lots of animals to see. The kids especially loved the petting zoo. More

I live in Sacramento and love to go to the Sacramento Zoo to just sit and read a book and listen to the animals around me. The grounds are beautiful. The zoo food is good. The corndogs give you that state fair corndog taste all year and the garlic fries are great. The grounds are clean and, generally, don't have... More

We took our 2.5 year old daughter here for the day and she loved it. I think every toddler and pregnant mother in the greater sacramento area was there the Saturday we visited! ;) They have a small train (no track) that drives the little ones around the park. We didn't ride because the line was too long. There was... More

My boyfriend and I were in town on business and we decided to check out the zoo on a Sunday. We arrived around 10am, but there was a special event going on (a marathon to raise money for the zoo), so we parked pretty far on the street next to the park. We had the Sacramento Gold Card from our... More

I think we paid as much to get into this zoo as we did the San Francisco zoo and there is NO comparison. Not even close. The best exhibit in this place is the giraffe exhibit because it's been...

Quaint, friendly and small enough to get close to the animals and really appreciate them. Very well maintained, not commercialized. Lovely zoo! We go on a regular basis and with out of town visitors. More

just about the right size for a zoo. Wish they had elelphants. Especially nice zoo store. Great place to take my grandson. More

I've been privileged to have seen many zoos in this country: Philadelphia (the US oldest), San Diegeo, Bronx, Atlanta, Orlando/Sanford, etc. This one was a pleasant surprise. It has a great cross section of animals and wildlife, plants, and more. It's large enough to be interesting, yet compact enough to prevent fatigue and/or crankiness from the younger - or older...

This is not the San Diego or Seattle Zoo, but it is a great local zoo that meets the needs of this community. I enjoyed feeding the giraffes the most. You see them eye to eye and not in a cage. A nice way to spend a leisurely warm afternoon. We and those we watched enjoyed the time. If your... More
