National Zoo
Najbolje vreme za posetu
Weekday mornings right when gates open at 8am are the quietest, and animals are most active after their overnight rest. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable weather for walking the outdoor habitats.
Saveti za budžet
Entry is always free, but parking costs $30 for non-members on weekdays and $35 on weekends if you reserve in advance. Take the Metro directly to the Woodley Park-Zoo/Adams Morgan stop instead, saving money and avoiding parking hassles.

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Home to more than 2,100 animals across 390 species, many of them rare or endangered like the Sumatran tiger and golden lion tamarin. The zoo's giant pandas have been a major draw since 1972, and the zoo is completely free to enter every single day.
Istaknuto: The zoo runs a quiet behind-the-scenes conservation program that has successfully bred dozens of black-footed ferrets, one of North America's most endangered mammals, helping bring them back from the brink of extinction. You can watch these tiny ferrets zipping around their burrows during keeper talks, a sight most visitors walk right past.
Insajderski saveti
- Skip the long midday panda queue and visit the Asia Trail first thing in the morning when the pandas are most active and eating breakfast.
- Bring a refillable water bottle and use the filling stations scattered throughout the zoo to stay hydrated without buying bottled water.
- The Kid's Farm area near the Connecticut Avenue entrance is rarely crowded and lets children pet friendly goats and donkeys up close.
- Arrive by 9am on weekends to secure one of the limited same-day panda viewing passes available at the Visitor Center.

Da li ste čuli za besplatne šetnje?
Nakon putovanja u preko 30 zemalja, postoji jedna stvar koju bih voleo da mi je neko rekao od prvog dana, a koja je potpuno promenila način na koji doživljavam nove gradove.
Besplatne šetnje. Da, zaista besplatne. Nije potrebna kreditna kartica. Nema skrivenih uslova.
Lokalni vodič, 2-3 sata
Glavne znamenitosti, skriveni dragulji, lokalne priče
100% zasnovano na napojnicama
Vodiči zarađuju samo napojnice, zato daju svoj maksimum
Napojnicu ostavljate koliko želite
Na kraju ostavite napojnicu koliko smatrate da je prikladno
Radio sam ove ture u desetinama gradova i bile su vrhunac skoro svakog putovanja. Ako posećujete Washington, United States, uradite to prvog dana. Zahvalićete mi kasnije.
