Great place to spend the day with the family. Bring your walking shoes as there is so much to explore. I would go on a warmer day because a lot of the animals were in hiding on the chilly day we went. The restaurant had the best food we have had at any zoo we have visited. I would highly recommend if you are visiting San Francisco.

Great experience as usual, quick to enter and beautiful weather. Only gripes would be that a couple exhibits were closed and the food situation could use more choices and stalls. Otherwise I really enjoyed the experience, spent about 3 hours here and could have spent another hour or 2 pretty easily.

I really like this zoo. There were a lot more enclosures that were closed down and looking dilapidated. I hope the zoo can restore these into more usable spaces soon. We didn’t see the hippo, lions and some others, probably because it’s still not hot enough. (?) The pandemic seemed to have taken its toll on this place. Hopefully with a renewed push to visit your local zoo, this place can rebound to the great zoo it once was.

Great mix of species. Beautiful landscaping and exhibits. We had a great time, saw all but two or three of the hundreds of animals. Highly recommended. Good public transportation and large pay parking lot.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

How can one become yearly family member? How much it costs?

Sandip Dasverma | Aug 20, 2020
Jacobo Herrera | Aug 20, 2020

Rick is right. Family plus is $189. It includes 3 adult passes where one can have a name on it and 2 can be guest passes or 2 can have a name on them and 1 guest pass and also includes 4 children. Also a one time free parking pass and 1 or 2 one time guest pass and some carousel passes. There is a cheaper one also. A family membership. If someone in the family (child included) is disabled and have their disability sign you get a $10 discount on the total membership price and free parking. No matter what plan you choose it is worth it. Click on the link in Rick's comment. We bought the membership deal as we would have spent the same amount for all 9 peoples tickets and it is good for a year from the time you purchase to the end of the month of the month you purchased it in originally. (ie purchase January 5 2020 good until January 31 2021) There are also membership plans for just 1 person those cost less.
