Great for strollers

11/13/2006 Posted by asd4s

I love going here with my kids. It's got wide paved paths that make it easier if you have two stroller bound kids. We'll miss the elephants! I highly recommend getting the membership online before you go. This will allow you to park for free. Parking is VERY VERY EXPENSIVE otherwise.

Pros: convenient, fun for kids

Cons: expensive

Editor's Review

America's oldest zoo has lions, tigers, bears and a primate exhibit you'll go ape over. See the full editorial review.
