We have been to about 10 zoos and this one is just as enjoyable as the Cincy and Columbus Zoos. The water play area for children is an excellent stop at near the midpoint of the zoo trail. Many animals have great photo areas unlike some zoos. The merry-go-round and train rides add to the zoo experience but are not... more

The louisville zoo is in my opinion probably the best most affordable place to take children. The animals exhibits and new small water spray park make for a lovely day trip , lots of picnic areas and a really surprising array of animals large and small. I have been to many many zoos and i would rate this among the... more

When we first arrived the zoo looked small (from the small parking lot) but inside I was pleasantly surprised. Although a lot of the animal habitats are small (giraffes, rhinos, gazelles, lion,etc.) some of the others were very nice and large. There were a couple animals that are very rarely seen in zoos, and I can't remember their names now.... more

The Zoo itself was great. They have a nice variety of animals and much to our surprise several playgrounds and a waterpark for the kids! They have a tram (for getting around the zoo quickly), and train (for seeing animals the easy way), and a huge carousel with traditional horses and some zoo animals (which remain stationary.) and several very... more

So, my mother whom is disabled and can only walk short distances, my husband and 3 year old (in a stroller) visited the zoo for the first time today. I called them yesterday to check into reserving a motorized wheelchair and enquire that the chair would make it all the way through the zoo----i was ensured it would no problem.... more

We have visited over 50 zoos nationally and have built up some real time experience to base our review on. Louisville honors the Zoo card and granted us free admission. The Zoo is large – be prepared to walk. For people who want to get out and stretch their legs this is perfect. The gorilla enclosure is quite large and... more

I really enjoyed my day at the zoo. I love animals but I am not a big zoo fan. I have been to several zoos and I think this is one of the better ones. I thought the animals looked well cared for, clean, and fairly happy for zoo animals. I personally enjoyed the baby elephant and the lorikeets. I... more

Our admission was free using our Milwaukee Zoo membership card. The zoo is very nice. The exibits are very themed and has lush vegitation, and backround music. The zoo is located on the side of a hill and there is some steep slopes to walk up but also has nice views from above. They have a train, tram, carousel, TWO... more

My husband, 2 small daughters (5 & 2) and I just got back from this zoo and LOVED IT! The zoo was so nice and well maintained and the staff was helpful and friendly. The animals seemed well kept and happy. You have to do the Giraffe feeding that they offer. The girls paid 1.00 for each branch or food... more
