Onissa LewisMay 27, 2016Love to see the elephants and penguins. Good place to get some exercise... good walk. Don't forget to ride the train before you leave!
Dave McSeptember 4, 2018Really an exceptional zoo and the type that you'd expect in a larger city. Large with all the types of exhibits and animals that you'd hope for. Can compete with any zoo out there! 🦒
Take a ride on the scale replica steam engine train. It's a fun way to see the zoo. Make sure to wave to the bystanders!
Gabby HAugust 7, 2013Sea lion show was awesome and affordable! Shark and Sting Rays was also great! Best zoo in the midwest!! Maybe the world :D
Danielle SchiestleApril 7, 2013You have to check out the baby jaguars & the fennec fox kits! Too adorable for words. The indoor exhibits can be pretty crowded- especially on free days. But it's worth it not to have to pay!
Getting a membership here is one of the best decisions we've made since moving to Milwaukee a year ago. It practically pays for itself. Excellent, beautiful zoo!
Melissa WilsonDecember 9, 2010Don't be afraid to visit the zoo in the winter...{preferably nonwindy} day. You'll have the zoo practically to yourself. It's so pretty when it's snowy & the indoor buildings are heated. Score!
Matthew TaubFebruary 25, 2018Best zoo in the state. Membership is the way to go if you live anywhere close.
Robyn WallenJuly 8, 2013great zoo but unless you have kids who want to ride a train take the tram tour instead. Its an awesome guided tour. The train just goes around the perimeter of the zoo. Not worth the $2.
Very well kept zoo, great for a family fun day, there are areas for picnics located throughout the grounds.
Carol VossFebruary 22, 2014Watch for Feb/March event at zoo for a fun brisk 5k run/walk and family-friendly Zumba supporting work of @Independence1st helping ppl w/disabilities!
- VISIT MilwaukeeJuly 6, 2011Zoo a la Carte: have beer next to bears, glug wine by giraffes, cheesecake near the cheetahs!
- A CJanuary 14, 2020Milwaukee County Zoo at 12 minutes drive to the north of Milwaukee dentist Cigno Family Dental
- Tracee GleichnerAugust 17, 2010A great place to visit but make sure you are ready to pay - without advance tickets adults were $13.25, kids $10.25 and I think it was $11 to park (we had free tickets for an event)
Jeremiah GuintaJuly 19, 2015Great zoo, lots of animals, train rides, zip lines, lots of things to do.
Aba SpoknikJuly 5, 2013Love the zoo, specially love the stingray & shark exhibit. You get to feed them!
Steven PetersonMay 21, 2012The bonobos are the best, but don't bang on your chest by the glass they will attack!!!- One of the best places to visit in Milwaukee. Great zoo!
Make sure to save the memory with a photo with the sealion
Get Caramel Collision ice cream in the Dairy Complex when you want a tasty treat on a hot day.
Get the family zoo pass. It's $115 with parking. It will save you a bunch of money if you come here often!!
Get here early! The animals are most active in the morning. :)
Love it here!!! Watched the tigers grow up....than the lions..and now the jaguars!!! Rumor has it ...in the future hyena babies!!! :)
Thursday's at 10am they feed the snakes in the reptile building. It's really neat but not for the weak stomach.
Aaron GilmoreSeptember 8, 2013It was nice being @ the Zoo w/ my niece-Ropes Course, she rode a camel, and fed/petted baby Stingrays.
The zoo pass is a bargain and a great excuse to come more often- VISIT MilwaukeeJune 7, 2011Check out the Zoo's new Butterfly exhibit. Colorful little (and big!) "flutterbys" all around you!

About 25% of visitors and employees are not wearing masks correctly and unfortunate staff aren’t correcting anyone
Eric WeishaarJune 5, 2011Check out the Permeable Pavers at the Zoo Terrace, Monkey Island and the Australian Exhibit that Breckenridge Landscape installed
- Nikki ReichertAugust 17, 2011Stop at the big cat house. The tiger cubs are all grown up, but we have three new lion cubs to see :D
