Our family loves the ABQ BioPark Zoo. Small and doable in a day. Take the internal zoo train for a 15 minute break from walking around, or go between the zoo an the aquarium/ botanic gardens for more family fun. The main onsite cafe offers good food (really!), and there are other snack options throughout the park. During the colder months there are several animals off exhibit, which is why I don't give it 5 stars. Edit October 2022 - there is no longer a train at the zoo.

Some day this Zoo will be 5 stars, and I believe one of the best in the country, I’ve been to plenty of zoos. But they have some issues, mostly because of “avian bird flu” really!! Why would you lock up all the birds, and penguins inside? Is that healthy for them? There’s no problem here! and if there was why are we allowed on the property? Much construction 🚧 going on, looks like it’s going to be nice when it’s finished. Would be nice if I could purchase a cold 🍺 beer, if the one stand was even open. It was great seeing the Mommy 🦍 gorilla, and orangutan 🦧 carrying babies. Amphibious, and reptile section was amazing. Very large Tortoise mating was interesting 😬. Wish we could be closer to the Giraffes, and missing 🐻‍❄️ polar bears. I’m lookin forward to going back but it won’t be in the near future.

The BioPark does not do birthday party bundles. But they do allow you to take your own food in and they have a nice grass area to sit at. There is not many tables for the public but the grassy area is fairly large. Our family loves to celebrate birthdays there.

aRE YOU OPEN WITHOUT A TICKET

Viola Morris | Oct 20, 2021
Manuel Salinas | Oct 20, 2021

You need to go to the website and paid in advance the entrance tickets at least 2 days before because the best time to be there is at the morning hours the time entrance is in the ticket and they recommend the visit should be no more than 2.5 hours so everyone can enjoy the park.
