Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens

This zoo is PERFECT! Just the right size for a day trip. It’s easy to get from one part to the next. I recommend taking the train as soon as you enter so you can start at the furthest part then work your way in. Everything is priced extremely well. The splash pad is so perfect to just get your feet wet or let the kiddos get full out soaked. The staff was very accommodating and the full experience was well worth it. The animals are well cared for and had great exhibits.

Great zoo. Went on a Monday. Staff is educated and friendly. The cafe is only open on weekends and we were looking forward to eating there. It's clean and plenty of places to sit if you need a rest. Could use newer signage on animals. Maps throughout the zoo would be great too.

I love the zoo! Okay so first of all the staff is very friendly and the animals looked healthy. I lost my bank card and I was able to retrieve it at the lost and found. The 4D shows was an experience and a half my family and I appreciated. The giraffe feeding was great they are so cute! The goats were very calm and I mean calm with everyone. It's a great experience. Ps. It's a full day go early and enjoy.
