So disappointing. Went here as a child, have taken my children. Took my grandchildren this past weekend. Hardly and animals in the zoo. A lot of the exhibits you where not sure if there were animals in them at all. I know the animals are not always out. But I'm not even sure they were there. Also had a dinosaur exhibit and a 3D movie cinema. Theses attractions were at extra cost. With all the loss of animals at the zoo the cost of theses other exhibits should be included in price of zoo ticket. One part of zoo I kept telling my grandkids about was the glass tunnel where you can watch polar bears. When we arrived at the tunnel. No bears just a lot of algae! Dirty nasty tunnels. Very dissatisfied with our visit will probably be our last. It's sad how things that were so beautiful are just falling away.

Had an amazing time! It was a ton of walking over 18k steps so wear proper shoes and ensure you bring strollers. Bathrooms are pretty few and far between depending and the lack of a paper map is confusing to say the least. But it’s definitely a good and fun experience!! Would definitely return!

The animals that were out were great but was disappointed by the lack of concession stands open and the fact that there were a lot of animals not even out. Went to see the flamingos and they were all locked in a small cage I'm the corner of the exhibit. Could just be because we went on a weekday and not a weekend or because of the construction but still wish we could've seen more. Still overall a great time and a good way to spend the day we family.

My husband and I visited the zoo today and we loved it! We lucked out with perfect weather so we saw 90% of the animals there. It’s a beautiful place, and we were happy to see big, enriching enclosures for animals. Lots of friendly staff and volunteers. Took us about 4 hours to make our way through everything. Highly recommend!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Daniela Lozano | Dec 31, 2020

You have to go to the zoo website. You pick the time slot you want and pay for your tickets and parking. They are only selling so many tickets per day. So you have to buy online. We went a few weekends ago and were inside for several hours. There were other people but it wasn't crowded. Masks inside buildings or if you were close to others not in your group

What is going on almost all the animal exhibits were closed...

Johnson Family Farm Johnson | Jan 1, 2019
Anna Draper | Jan 2, 2019

I was there 3 weeks ago. The explanation is on the website. The arctic and red panda/tiger areas are being renovated. The only animals that are not viewable are the seals and the red panda. However for all the times I have been to the DZ, I have only seen the polar bear once, and never the red panda. I am super excited about the new habitats!! Those are the two habitats that I simply avoid generally because they are so dissapointing! Penguin habitat is amazing and don't miss the prarie dogs, kangaroos, gorillas, lemurs!, Giraffe, wolves, otters, zebras or the newly added wilderbeast. I also always look forward to the butterfly garden and aviary. I hope the lion and bear habitats will be updated soon too!

Do they have tigers? Also are they open?

Stephanie Crisi | Dec 31, 2020
Tom Drobny | Jan 1, 2021

Yes they have tigers and they come real close to the glass. If the glass was not there you would be able to pet them. The penguin house is closed because it is being rebuilt and the butterfly exhibit is closed. You have to make reservations for the day and the time you need to be at the front gate. Bring masks as they are required in indoor exhibits and some outdoor areas. I was there August 9 th just for you to know how current my information is that I stated. I have posted photos, the animals were pretty active considering it was 90 and humid. Very pleasant experience as always.

I was looking at the price for tickets and why would the ticket prices be more expensive on the slower days? And they seem to increase each day?

Angela Vorwerk | Jan 1, 2020
Ivory Slaughter | Jan 2, 2020

Typically when your online purchasing the tickets, the closer they are to the present day (say I order the tickets for tomorrow) I wouldn't be saving any money, where as if I order it for 2 weeks from tomorrow, it should, realistically, save you a few dollars. As to why the prices seem to increase more each day, it could be that those are getting to be peak days and that's why they're increasing. I suggest, if you have a kid or even if you don't, to get a membership. Within 3 trips to the zoo, the membership pay for themselves for even a single adult membership.

Maria Villarreal | Jan 1, 2020
Danny “DF87” Frantjeskos | Jan 2, 2020

The website has all prices. But I definitely recommend that you go. They have done recent improvements and it's a great place and lots to do. I do recommend going in the spring. If you go when it's too hot or too cold most animals are seeking shelter for shade and in the fall they take some animals out due to the weather. But there are exhibits for birds, butterflies, reptiles that are enclosed. They also have a 3d/4d theater. And a few places to eat. Foods a little pricey so if your on a budget pack a lunch and blanket. There's plenty of picnic area and picnic tables. And bring water, it's a big place. You will get thirsty lol. Have fun!

Which zoo is better Detroit zoo or Toledo zoo?

Tony R. Myers | Jan 1, 2019
Joanna Barnes | Jan 2, 2019

I've been to both. Toledo Zoo is more compact, less walking between each exhibit. The aquarium alone is worth the admission. They have a fabulous polar bear exhibit, and their elephants, hippos, & tigers are fun to see. Unfortunately, they no longer have lions, which Detroit DOES still have (though they can be hard to see). The animals are typically easier to view at Toledo versus Detroit. Detroit zoo, as many have pointed out, does indeed have more exhibits, including Lion's, monkeys, reptile & amphibian houses, & much more; I haven't sent it yet but I've heard their new penguin exhibit is fantastic. However, it is a LOOOONNNG WALK & it is not flat, like Toledo. So, if you have impatient littles, Detroit may not be the zoo for you. If you are looking for somewhere to walk and get some physical activity while enjoying the animals around you, Detroit is perfect. You can go entirely through the Toledo Zoo in about 2 hours, you need at least 3-4 to walk the entirety of the Detroit zoo.
