If you want to get away from the Orlando parks, we’d definitely recommend this lovely zoo (easy to find and about 45 minutes drive). Run by volunteers, who are so friendly and helpful, this zoo offers great value, superb animals set in a lovely quiet oasis. The zoo is small and you could walk round it in half an hour,... more

This is a great zoo! Well worth the money. If you are over 40yrs old you will be amazed by the Butterfly exhibit. The whole zoo is very lush. It was a great day for us. There is a downside:lots of children and parents. The children scream and taunt the amimals. I understand the kids are excited,but the parents do... more

After some early morning shopping, we decided to visit this zoo on the day after Thanksgiving. The weather was perfect and all of the animals were active and lively. The zoo is very well-planned and compact. You can spend a full day or just a couple of hours depending on how long you can spend feeding giraffes or watching gibbons... more

We wanted to take our daughter to a zoo for her 5th birthday and someone suggested we try the Brevard Zoo. We were disappointed that we did.

My husband and I just visited the Brevard Zoo and we absolutely loved it! Generally, we don't go to zoos, because we don't like to see the animals in concrete and steel. However, Brevard Zoo is a quiet, natural habitat-type of zoo that is calming for visitors and the animals. We we able to feed parrots and deer and kayak... more

The zoo here is quite small, so don't expect for a visit to take more than a couple of hours, even if you stop to eat lunch. The train ride is horribly boring, and you don't see any animals, so don't waste your money. The food is mediocre at best, so don't come too hungry. The animals are great though,... more

Recently returned from a 1/2 business - 1/2 pleasure trip to Orlando. We had our two small children in tow, and decided on only hitting WDW one day. (Smart choice for us!) While looking for other ideas of things to do with a couple of toddlers, I recalled reading about Brevard Zoo. We took a 1 hour trip East from... more
