We came here about 2 years ago and it was just as good the second time around, but this time the mosquitoes were murder. Bring a high quality deet based bug spray and save yourself a whole lot of bites. My old review is pasted below... The crococun zoo was a great day trip and we'd definitelly do it again.... more

We visited the zoo in November 2009. This is more than just a zoo, you will get a guided tour and learn so much about the animals. You have a unique opportunity to take some great photos. The tour lasted about an hour and was very informative. The unique thing about the zoo is that it is a shelter for... more

Visited this zoo in 8/09. We went early in the day, before the tour groups got there so we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Got kissed by a bird, laughed at another bird that kept telling us "hola" (got that on video-hilarious). Got to hold several little crocs and snakes. Pet a Mexican Hairless dog (sweet dog but... more

My wife and I are not zoo people, but after reading the reviews on TA, decided we must give it a try and we were not disappointed. We arrived around 3pm and had a guide for just the two of us. He was very knowledgable and spoke good English. He showed us round and introduced us to the parrots, snakes,... more

Crococun is a professional outfit offering a tour to you and whoever is in your party. My wife an I were guided on our own by a knowledgable tour guide who shared basic animal info and stats with us on our trek through the "zoo." Interactive is the perfect word to describe the park. It is not very big, but... more

My partner and I stayed at the Excellence Riviera Cancun from 14th-28th June 2009, and as Crococun Zoo was just at the end of the road, we thought we'd check it out. We're so glad we did! As the name suggests, it's mainly a zoo dedicated to crocodiles. However, they also have parrots, snakes, turtles and other reptiles, plus deer,... more

This place really is a nature preserve, and the entrance fee is going to a good cause.Because there weren't many people around, we were given a private tour that lasted a little over an hour, and we were free to go at our own pace. It was really cool to be able to handle the animals. My wife loved holding... more

I enjoyed our experience at Crocun. The admission is fairly expensive but the tour was great. They give you a small bag of fruit and peanuts to feed designated animals. Our guide spoke good English and had a great sense of humor. The exhibits were mostly dedicated to crocodiles and they even take you through a pit of large size... more

I know from people there, this monkeys were confiscated by mexican nature law, from people who had them as pets (illegaly). So this monkeys are completely unable to survive in the jungle by themselves, and also to interact safely with other monkeys and people anymore. Mexican law asked Croco Cun Zoo to have them, apparently there is no other better... more
