Arrive right when gates open at 9 AM to see animals during their most active morning hours. Weekdays from September through April are quieter, while summer Saturdays draw the biggest crowds.

General admission starts around $70 for adults, but San Diego residents get discounted tickets and the zoo is included free with a CityPASS or Go San Diego Card. Bring your own reusable water bottle and snacks to save on food costs inside.

Om
Hurtige fakta: Over 3.700 dyr fra mere end 650 arter kalder dette 40 hektar store dyrelivsreservat deres hjem. Zooen driver også et enormt 730 hektar stort vildtpark-samarbejde, hvor truede arter som californiske kondorer avles og reddes fra udryddelse.
Højdepunkter: Bag kulisserne tilbereder et dedikeret team af ernæringseksperter over 6.000 skræddersyede måltider dagligt i et af verdens største dyrekøkkener, herunder friskfrosne fiskepinde til isbjørnene. Zooens dyreplejespecialister har med succes avlet over 200.000 dyr, herunder den første kæmpepandaunge født i USA.
Insidertips
- Skip the crowded entrance bus and take the Kangaroo Bus (hop-on-hop-off) instead to cover more ground efficiently.
- Visit the absolutely must-see Giant Panda Research Station before 11 AM when the pandas are most active and the viewing lines are shortest.
- Wear comfortable walking shoes because the zoo is built on a canyon with steep hills, and the Skyfari aerial tram gives your legs a break with stunning views.
- The Children's Zoo area and petting paddock are surprisingly delightful for adults too, especially during the 11:30 AM reptile handling session.
