Wednesdays although its free admission, the zoo gets extremely crowded with camps.. Recommend for any other day of the week!
Simon WilsonAugust 15, 2018
Wednesdays are free entry. Wednesdays are also lllllooooonnnnnng queues.

get the guided monorail, it is well worth the extra fee.

Had so much fun with the family! Such a great place to take the family 😇

If you are parking on Southern Blvd, PLEASE remove valuables from plain sight! Your car will be broken into if thieves can quickly see what you have to take.

Free Parking Also on Southern blvd. Just walk 1 long block across from Fordham U. Football field.

An incredible zoo - clean, fabulous petting zoo, and a staff that really seems to care.

Get there early to full enjoy everything.

Let your child learn about animals by pretending to be one—like sitting inside a heron’s nest, trying to jump as far as a frog, popping out of a prairie-dog burrow and crawling through an otter log.
Carlos GonzalezAugust 25, 2015
Great place to be a whole day being in touch with the nature and the animals
Dan MilanoSeptember 1, 2015
Animals are great, food is poor, security guards will hassle you if you lean back on a bench and look at the clouds.
Benny BaezApril 22, 2014
The monkeys and gorillas are awesome. Definitely get there as early as possible
Christina CaroApril 4, 2014
I loved the polar bear, tiger, and giraffe exhibits
Simon KeyersOctober 15, 2014
Great zoo. buy tickets for all the attractions, it's well worth it
Trevor DimmieAugust 23, 2012
No Cheetahs anymore but still a great family trip. Tiger Exhibit was great!
Michael CornerstoneAugust 10, 2014
Everything! Amazing place! Staff is friendly and helpful.

The Bronx Zoo houses more than 6,000 animals and over 600 unique species. The zoo employs 750 full time staff each year. What a busy place!

Find the Jungle World building in the Asia section. Very low profile entrance but it's huge and amazing. End up deep down at the Jungle Waterfall room with underwater view of huge fish
Kai BrinkerApril 9, 2011
Be sure to check out the giraffes. They're probably the closest you're allowed to get to a big animal without a fence, moat, or window in the way.
Kerri AhernOctober 11, 2014
Been here 5+ times
It's huge so you can spend an entire day here and the kids aren't complaining
Andrew SAugust 12, 2015
The gorillas exhibit and polar bear are both great.
Ray HApril 15, 2010
Worth visiting when in The Bronx, just don't go on Wed. because it's free and always way full on that day with less animals on display as on any other day (which one pays for) Read more

Make sure to purchase the Total Experience Ticket That Gives You General Admission & Unlimited Rides & Attractions ( Except the Camel Ride ) :)
A5ma_September 24, 2018
Super crowded on Wednesdays (when the admission is for free).
Chris AngelinaMarch 18, 2016
Better when the weather is warmer but still good none the less.
Nicole SobersJune 18, 2019
The treetop adventure combo is worth every penny
Manos KoumantakisAugust 12, 2012
4th biggest in the world! A must-see and worth of spending a whole day or more..

Make sure you take the monorail to see the elephants and tiger
Julie SosciaAugust 2, 2018
The largest zoo in NYC, best to take the train uptown.

I still like the Queens zoo better. But the Bronx has the most animals.
K & JJune 21, 2016
Be prepared to walk & seriously stop and look around!
Christopher FredaAugust 30, 2023
My daughter loves the red pandas!
Melissa DarlingMay 26, 2014
The food is expensive so walk with your own but the exhibits are breath taking!
tina tanSeptember 17, 2015
Free admission during wednesdays!
Paula PiccardSeptember 2, 2017
Best perk? Free Wednesday admission. Love the Bronx zoo!
Jamie EApril 6, 2013
The gorillas may be behind glass but they were the most interactive out if all the animals. They tapped the glass at us.
Rajini PriyaOctober 3, 2024
One of the best zoo in East Coast
Henry H.November 14, 2011
Get there early if you want to see everything, you can easily spend a whole day here :)

The zebras are elegant the 4d movie is always cute

Coming here on a Wednesday is like walking in to welfare after 11am!!! Just don't do it lol!
Rafael SulitJuly 4, 2012
Cap the trip off with a ride on the monorail. It's really cool and an exhibit in itself!
Lawrence ChongJanuary 2, 2013
Great zoo but you have to walk through dangerous streets just to get there from subway
a blissful life.April 5, 2013
Best zoo, hands down, in NYC, and one of the best in the USA!
Lenny KnechtOctober 15, 2014
Go on Wednesday and pay only the full experience tickets! (14.95$ instead of 28$+14.94$)
Karen Lang-CuencaSeptember 7, 2015
Great place for family fun
Steve LeVineAugust 10, 2017
Get a free year's membership if you have an IDNYC card.
Alyssa PAugust 10, 2012
A lot of walking, uneven pavement and not a lot of animals during the walk. Lots of things that should be repaired and updated and is not. Seemed like their money goes to research more than exhibits.
Douglas FilterJuly 8, 2016
Natural settings for the animals. But can't tell if we are on display for the monkeys - or vice versa
