Go see the elephants ~ the trainers working with the elephants was the highlight of the trip! AMAZING! Wonderful grounds, happy and healthy animals. Thank you for a great experience.

We took our family of 4 children here this last weekend. We all had a great time and were very impressed by this zoo. I just wish we had been able to spend 2 days here instead if just 1. It was really crowded and there was a lot of waiting for the things we really wanted to do. So... More

I think this is a very good zoo but it can be better if they expand, so that there is more room for the larger animals like the elephants, hippos, and gorillas.

I have been to this zoo several times over the last decade, it just continues to get better. This is a large zoo, so plan on wearing comfortable clothing. I would suggest that you take the tram ride so you can get an idea of the lay out of the zoo, especially if it is your first visit. The animals... More

The OKC Zoo has done some major updating and is a wonderful place for the family to visit! I love the organization of the zoo and the great habitats that are provided.

This zoo is awesome. I have watched it grow and become even better each year. I read some of the other reviews on hear. The negative things that were said about this zoo is so untrue. I have been to several zoo's myself and this by far is the best. No it's not because I am from Oklahoma City. The... More

Overall the zoo was nice. The bears were very active and there was a zoo keeper answering questions which was a plus. The maps were a little hard to follow so play close attention to where you are going. Food was ok. Typical zoo food.

The zoo has a feeling of peace about it that makes the trip special. The animals are well cared for with room to move around and feel comfortable. The ride is well worth taking because it is too big to walk around

My children and I have been to approximately 20 zoos across this country and this is by far the worst zoo we've ever been to. The enclosures for the animals are open spaces with chain-link fencing, no natural habitats. There was little shade for either animals or humans. It's small. The employees were horribly rude, at least the ones we... More
