Very fun, but the Bronx Zoo always is. Go early and prepare to attend twice. The Zoo is HUGE!

I had a really good time. The attractions are spaced far enough apart that the kids get to walk off some energy before they get in line for another event. Bug merrigoround is always a hit anytime of year but the safari where you walk through the snake's belly was awesome! The kids were so interested they actually behaved!

It was very cute. A "jazzed" up version of the regular zoo. Our 18month had fun but was a little too young for everything. The lines were super long! However, the day was beautiful and any day at the zoo is enjoyable.

It was "Awesome"! The kids and I enjoyed ourselves. I am so happy that I was able to enjoy this experience for such a great price. Word of advice "Go Early". A lot of people were there and dress warm!
